You are doing the thing right now. The other choice is "none of those things," actually, and you don't get that by voting harder because as you've just demonstrated you were not given the choice. Is any genocide acceptable to you? The line is never "less genocide," it is "no genocide."
There was a choice. Primaries. Americans rejected every option of no genocide, so the final round had genocide A or genocide B. Same way that they rejected Bernie Sanders a few times.
At that point, the lesser evil position is which ever will destroy the USs ability to do genocide the fastest
Yeah, the problem with empires is they can only destroy themselves, usually. Which they are on a tremendous path of doing.
ie: the lesser evil position is just Accelerationism
