So many assumptions baked into this... it's not worth the time/effort to debunk this stupidity.
Here is actual reality:
The next POTUS will be either the Democrat or the Republican. Right now that translates to Harris or Trump. No matter how hard you squint, no matter how hard you mentally masturbate, one of these two people will be elected. If you vote for Trump then you are helping Trump win. If you do not vote for Harris then you are helping Trump win. Choose wisely.
Just pointing out that I heard the same shit last month, except replace Harris with Biden, now bidens gone
Still true.
If you want further discussion on this, this is where I found it: https://www.reddit.com/r/LateStageCapitalism/comments/1erncva/the_long_term_effect_of_voting_for_the_lesser_evil/
Late stage capitalism reddit sub has literally been linked to russian intelligence. Of course they don’t want left wing people not to vote, they want trump elected.
I don't really want to discuss it... it's a deepity. It's something that sounds profound at first glance, but is completely revealed to be bullshit when seriously examined.
Short version: If you don't want to have to vote for the lesser evils then you (and many others) have to get involved in the process long before the POTUS election. It would also be good to get rid of the archaic FPTP voting system and do something like RCV.
