Why wouldn't a progressive want to vote blue though? Of the two most likely candidates, they are the least fascist.
Unless you're going the accelerationist route, it makes sense to Vote blue.
Why should we reward democrats for taking our votes and betraying us?
That's your problem, thinking you're rewarding Democrats somehow by voting for them rather than doing damage mitigation for the country. They're rich and will be fine regardless of who you vote for - you're only making things worse for yourself by not voting for the lesser of two evils.
You say "Thats your problem" like you think the DNC can win without these people you talk down to.
It is our problem. You and me and everybody. Because we are the primary losers whenever the GOP wins elections. Not well to do politicians. They are going to be fine either way.
They can't. But the fascists sure did thanks to their help.
