I was on the less evil bandwagon but over the years I don't see enough progress to justify it. But, I respect your decision.

I'm curious. What do you do instead now?

My thoughts on choices are to vote for less evil, more evil, or don't vote.

I can't figure out why less evil isn't the best option.

It is the best option. 2016 election proved that without a shadow of a doubt. Anyone saying otherwise at this point is either painfully naive or willfully ignorant. Or working for Papa Putin.

That's probably a fine calculus if you live in a swing state, but if you live in NY or CA, why not vote green? The state will go blue no matter what. Similarly, some states will go red no matter what. If you live there, why not vote for whoever you ACTUALLY support?
