I am so so divided on if I should vote for biden or not. I wanna vote third party to at least do something or should I just stay home and protest and advocate where I can? Thoughts?

Republicans win because of gerrymandering and the electoral college.

Republicans win because they packed the supreme court and the police support a coup.

Like... Vote Biden for the chance to delay the inevitable, but there will be a fascist coup because they don't have another choice to maintain power. There's just too much money behind fascism and police almost universally support it. Figuring out how to vote is less important than figuring out how to undermine fascism after it takes over.
