If the system produces two really bad candidates, then the system is wrong and not me.

If neither of the two corporations who produce those candidates refuses to stop existential problems like climate change, then the system is wrong and not me.

If the system refuses to stop genocide but keeps producing weapons to carry it out, then the system is wrong and not me.

And, certainly, if the system doesn't allow me to protest against the "lesser of two evils" to push that person even less evil, well, then the system is wrong and not me.

None of this, NONE of this, means I am incapable of making a measured political decision in the near future, even if I throw up a little in my mouth while doing it, but I am also capable of holding on to my conscience if my push toward less evil goes unheeded. One cannot and should not be mad or frustrated with me for that; one must consider how the system is impervious to the desires of its citizens before siding with the system over those who don't/can't/won't participate. Perhaps you can join the push - no decisions need to be made right now.

@Sfwmson Although my spirit is tired and I agree with you, I do believe we have to keep putting pressure and calling out the hypocrisy and corruption. #vote #keepprotesting
