Because who needs to thoughtfully engage with arguments about the utility of electoralism, when you can smugly make a bingo card, and pretend that you won?
"Okay, if that's the case then the most realistic thing I can do is a protest vote against Biden and for the GOP because that way I'm making the effect of my vote on the Democratic party have at least double the impact.
If the Dems want my vote they have to earn it but until that happens not only are they losing one vote but they're getting one vote for the opposing party.
I will encourage other voters to engage in protest voting this way so we can form a bloc to affect change in the most realistic and pragmatic way under this system. We will lobby for change and hold the entire system hostage in the same way that the Dems and their supporters are attempting to hold us hostage. Turnabout play is fair.
Thank you for helping me to understand that voting is powerful and how it's crucial to democracy."
