One is quite a bit less awful

In a First Past the Post system this is the only party worth voting for. Many leftists advocate and donate for progressive causes but when it comes to election time there is no other sane alternative.

Yep and nobody alive today designed this system we all inherited it same as everyone. And if you ignore this system you simply guarantee yourself to being a lifetime loser.

I agree completely, first past the post is sheer idiocy and leads to dilemmas like what we're seeing now.

What I don't understand is this nigh worship of the Democratic party, where some adherents won't countenance the slightest criticism of their "team". One can still vote for the less bad party AND hold them accountable for their actions.
