The discourse on American politics sometimes devolves to "Leftists who won't vote" & "MAGA Republicans" teaming up to "getting revenge on liberals".

it is. a vote for any person must be counted for that person. they cannot count my vote for cornel west as a vote for biden.
Your vote for West means nothing when there is zero chance they’ll win. You are throwing away a vote that could have been used to combat Trump.
By voting for third party, you may as well not be voting at all. And in both cases, you are saying you don’t care who wins. Which means you don’t care if Trump wins. Which means you are complicit in Trump’s victory if it is to happen.
So I will blame all of you just as much as the Reps if that comes to pass, and the blood will be on your hands as well.
if the situation is as dire as you say, and the Democrats put up Biden as a candidate knowing that I won't vote for him, and you don't stop the Democrats from putting up Biden, your complicit in Trump's victory.
you can see how that makes just as much sense, right, and how it's just as wrong?
The DNC chooses who they choose. Nobody is happy with it, but at the end of the day we have to prevent the literal nazis from taking power. You refusing to vote for the only candidate that stands any chance against Trump only helps Trump.
If he wins, all of you are responsible for the terror that ensues.
the people responsible for the victory of any candidate are the people who vote for that candidate. I'll be voting against trump
