I’m not voting for Trump. I’m offering my vote to the Democrats for the most minimal cost. Literally willing to forego pretty much every political and moral principle I have except putting my name on a genocide.
Non-vote isn’t just the only possible moral choice in this context, it’s also the maximal way to vote if the goal is to change the party politics like you claim to want to.
Withholding votes is pushing the DNC to allow young, smart progressive candidates, it is the only way that ever has a chance of happening. This is because they will never ever allow a progressive candidate to win a primary if their corporate pro-genocide candidates can win simply by doing the old pied piper trick. As long as pro-genocide candidates are electorally viable, they’ll continue to field them and they’ll continue to win because that’s who the party backs with funding and that’s who they tell their media arm to boost. Biden getting re-elected reinforces that cycle, it does not put us closer to disrupting it.
The strategy you’re insisting on has only resulted in democratic voters compromising on their principles more and more to the point where you’re now here trying to convince people to vote for someone funding a genocide. That’s how far from your purported goal your strategy has brought us.

Like I said, you’ve already made your mind up and I’m not trying to persuade you at all.
I know, I was addressing the misleading points you tried to float.
