Refusing to vote against a clear fascist candidate because the system is unjust is, in my mind, a bit like holding your breath until the bully stops beating up the unpopular kid. I can appreciate the intent, but it's so hopelessly naive about how these things work and what will have even a little impact, that it's just as likely to encourage the behaviour to continue as not.
Don't vote if you can't stand to, but don't pretend it helps anything other than your own sense of self-righteousness.
