Yep. Voting for the lesser evil is meant to keep the window open. Allow valid elections to continue, allow advocacy to continue, and hopefully keep more people alive. It's just buying time. The real work in such a dynamic is not in the election booth, it's on the streets and in smaller offices.
If anything, this election shows that the meme isn't happening the way it's shown. The Dems moved more right than ever, and voters did not show up for them.
Call it what you want, I'll take good that's available when great isn't a viable option. For one example it would mean a chance at rebalancing the courts, but now they'll be steamrolled and conservative for decades. RIP roe v wade
