Gang, this isn't complicated. We have a de facto two party system. On election day your choices are: A. Evil, B. Lesser Evil, or C. Don't vote / wasted vote. That's the way the system works. Systems can change. If you don't like the existing system, work to change it instead of just showing up on election day to make a futile gesture. Alaska this year might be a prime opportunity to get wider support for ranked choice voting if played right. You can also show up for primary season to get the Lesser Evil even less evil.
I think not voting is a vote for more far right wing nonsense, everything is great.
A vote for democrats is a vote for more right wing nonsense.
Less of a vote for right wing nonsense than if they just voted for the democrats
