Dem supporters have been holding their noses for 50+ years and voting for the “lesser evil”. If that has brought us to this election, where your choice is between “genocide” and “genocide +”, isn’t it obvious that voting for the “lesser evil” just inevitably trends towards the greater evil over time? It is not a successful strategy at mitigating harm.
“Over time” being the crucial detail. I’ll take every opportunity I can to buy time to slow the trend toward greater evil. Gives us time to get actual leftists into positions that will actually make them viable presidential candidates.
Those 150+ years of bourgeois “democracy” (IE capitalist dictatorship) got the US to where it is now. Don’t worry tho, keep doing the same thing over and over again, the US just keeps improving. /s

What’s obvious is that multiple election cycles of non-participation lead to people who want the greater evil winning the vote more often.
Counterpoint: literally any of the things that happened under Trump that Hillary almost certainly wouldn’t have done.
Like nominating three of the judges that overturned roe
We’ve been down that road before
What doesn’t happen is non-participation leading to the abolishion of America’s two party system.
