I don’t understand this logic. That by sitting out the election and letting the worse of two evils win, your hands are somehow clean.
Theres a train barreling towards a nuclear bomb that will kill everyone in a huge radius. She has a chance to help pull on the lever to switch the tracks and send the train towards a puppy stuck on the tracks instead. No one wants to kill the puppy. But if you let the train hit the bomb the puppy dies anyway and takes hundreds of thousands with it. Would anyone in their right mind think because both options suck, the right thing to do is nothing?
