I'm submitting this as an important contribution to the passionate debate here at OEN on the merits of lesser-evil (LOTE) voting. With leftist and Green credentials as good as anybody's, retired math professor and "full-time political activist and radical educator" (quoted from his Greanville Post bio), Eric Schechter calmly lays out a solid, well-argued case for Greens voting for Biden in swing states. This case should be even more credible based on its source publication: The Greanville Post is one of very few U.S. (nonspecialist) publications where numerous contributors self-identify as Marxists/communists. No Dembots here!

Authors Bio:

Patrick Walker is co-founder of Revolt Against Plutocracy (RAP) and the Bernie or Bust movement it spawned. Before that, he cut his activist teeth with the anti-fracking and Occupy Scranton PA movements.

No longer with RAP, he wields his pen and his activist network to wage holy war for climate justice. Hoping to help build a counterculture of revolt, he also writes quirky, highly literate song lyrics for the rising indie band God's Comics.

A happily married man for over 10 years, Patrick has lost his beloved wife Ginger to colon cancer. He resides with his ineffably charming Sheltie dog Jasmine in East Amherst, NY.
