    I think not voting for fascists takes the wind out of fascist sails. Yes.

      You think actual fascists give a shit about your vote?

      Actual fascists, historically, work to strongly depress voter turnout, because the illegitimization of democracy is a core component of the ideology.

      In a two-party, winner-take-all system, not voting will just help Trump. Trump will be detrimental to your cause compared to Biden.

        There’s no cause here. Only dissatisfaction spun into a sense of disaffected superiority.

          Yeah, nothing like taking your dissatisfaction to the next level with a second Trump presidency.

            Don’t worry, they’ll just use the opportunity to say “Well, the Democrats won’t be any better. I’ll just not vote in the Trump Dynasty Monarchy Referendum”
