I’m not obligated to encourage anyone to vote for the lesser evil so long as the lesser evil still has an opportunity to be less evil.
Wow. Literally saying the quiet part out loud - “As long as the Democrats are not 100% in line with my views, it’s okay to endorse inaction and the takeover of a fascist regime on the pretext that the Democrats Aren’t Good Enough™”
A lack of endorsement for a thing =! endorsement for the opposite thing
Oh, when there are only two possible choices, it very much is, whether or not you want to confront that. If there is an infant drowning in an ankle-deep pool in front of you, doing anything other than saving the infant is endorsing its death.
Before you is a very simple and very easy choice - fascism, or non-fascism. Yet your kind reject non-fascism, every single time. Curious.
All of which boil down to “Try to rescue the infant” or “Varying levels of letting the infant drown or hoping someone else will spontaneously see the infant and rescue them in your stead”

What part of my comment was an endorsement of inaction?

Actually in this context there’s at least 4:
Nobody has actually ‘voted’ for a candidate yet, all anyone has done thus far is endorse or not endorse voting for a candidate. Just as a reminder:
Only because of the electoral college you’re entirely wrong here.
There are only two choices.
There is no other option in the long run.
The electoral college hasn’t met yet, nor have you or I voted yet.

Democrats have to be perfect. Republicans just have to be on the ballot.
That’s why democrats cannot afford to be complacent.
