What do you want him to do? Insight a revolution? Voting for the bad, but marginally less bad option is better than nothing.
"Lesser evilism" is hitting rock bottom, Clyde - and so is liberalism itself. That is perfectly apparent - liberals refusing to believe it is irrelevant. "Voting harder" will not stop that, and the chances of voting even slowing it down was a decent argument in 2020, but not after liberalism showed the entire planet it's true hand in a little place called Gaza.
Do you have the power or the know-how to do that, perhaps? No? Then I guess the answer is no, isn't it?
I will tell you what I tell every liberal that demands convenient solutions as soon as an actual leftist points out the gigantic gaping holes in the liberal world-view - start by doing the work of actually understanding how you got into this mess in the first place.
It's not much, but it's a start. And it's a shit-ton more politically pro-active than simply voting for some guy in an expensive suit.
