Not voting won't topple the government. Why not vote for the best option, given that one will win? Is the hope that they'll notice your nonparticipation and try to attract you?

Your best option is evil. That's why. You don't need any other reason.

Everything is evil, no? Every society that has ever existed has had its cruelties. That doesn't mean it doesn't matter/we just let it happen, but it does mean we have to concretely minimize them.

You're not minimizing evil by voting Dem or Rep. You're enabling monsters.

Here's the thing: not voting is not disabling them. They don't need quorum to form a government. It's symbolic.

It's not helping them, so I don't really care.
