If we remove the Republicans, things get better. If we remove the Democrats, things stay the same. It's not a question of who is better, but who is worse. Until we change the voting and representation systems (hello Approval Voting and Sequential Proportional Approval Voting) picking the lesser evil is the only logical and moral choice.

They are complicit by only striving to be less evil. Would you be happy between choosing a rape and murder of your parents or just a murder? One is clearly less than the other so we should be happy with that over the alternative.

One is clearly preferrable, neither is acceptable.

Dems had power for enough time to change elections and did not, thus enabling this regime.

Decades of "lesser evil" voting is what got you where you are today.
