    Continue with that analogy. What would happen if that woman had no other option. Should she choose the nice guy, the chad or object to the choice being fostered upon her and choose nobody? And if she’s paired anyway with that person, should she then act as if it was her choice, or take actions to disengage from that person and destroy the system that caused these turn of events?

      You can tactically vote for Biden to avoid Trump and still take actions to dismantle the system.

        So the woman in our scenario should decide to choose the “Nice Guy” tactically?

            I don’t think it does. A choice fostered upon me at the threat of violence is not a choice at all. I refuse to participate and therefore legitimize such a farce.

              You’re free to do nothing, but smart people choose to minimize harm when there are only bad choices in front of them.

        No you can’t because biden didnt run. Just like harris should not have run if she refused to meet the electorate were they’re at policy wise.

        Or you could maybe take actions to fix the system. Because whatever you lot come up with after dismantling is going be worse for everybody else.
