It’s not a straw man.

It is.

I have told you I will not vote for a genocidal neo-liberal ghoul.

You have. This is an irrelevant bit to prove you are not straw-manning me, though.

Your position is that I must in order to ‘stop fascism’.

Technically it's that (encouraging people to) sit out elections rather than voting for a Lesser Evil is enabling MAGA/facism, but close enough to the point of splitting hairs and pedantry.

You continue to side-step the idea of why it is unreasonable to expect the democrats to run an option that is not a genocidal neo-liberal ghoul - why they can’t be expected to serve anything but sand.

No I don't. You haven't even introduced it until the most recent comment, and I addressed it. I'll expand to make you more comfortable, but it makes me a bit uncomfortable to essentially treat you like a fool for not realizing it's a belief I hold:

Yes, the Democrats have failed to introduce strong enough candidates to be hugely better than MAGA in every way. They are the sand in the metaphor.

You are implying I think eating sand is good or that serving sand is good, which is either an insult to my intelligence, an indicator of your poor intelligence, or a sign you are participating in this discussion in bad faith. I'm leaning #3, but I admit that's just a guess.
