I am all for building dual power, but doing that doesn't prevent you from voting for the slightly less bad party. In fact, it will take a long time till any institution we build will have enough power to have a meaningful impact in people's lives, so reducing the suffering in the meantime is extremely important. And don't even begin talking about third parties or something like that. You know as well as I do that they are never going to win. Strategic voting is the best thing we have in the brutal US electoral system.
