I don't completely disagree with you here. But when you only get 2 real options that don't align with what you really want, then do you actually have a voice? It feels like to me we can pick x, y, or if we want to waste our vote then z. Z is what some people really want, it's not gonna happen, but that's what they want. But they must settle for x or y. How is their voice being heard?
Fixing that requires long-term thinking and action. Something that the Greens and others refuse to do. If Stein, hypothetically was elected, at best, it would be a lame duck presidency because she would have no support from any other branch (except for things supported by Putin).
Local elections, primaries, and congressional seats are needed for actual change. That doesn't have the immediate gratification though of visibly pretending to do something, regardless of if it actually helps.
