Even if Biden wins (he probably won’t, IMO), and the Dems go ahead with their supposed plan to stack the USSC (which they probably wouldn’t, IMO), they ain’t gonna stack the court with leftists. They’d load it up with loyal servants of the white supremacist imperial plutocracy.

If you are confronted with two evils, thus the argument runs, it is your duty to opt for the lesser one, whereas it is irresponsible to refuse to choose altogether. Those who denounce the moral fallacy of this argument are usually accused of a germ-proof moralism which is alien to political circumstances, of being unwilling to dirty their hands.

Politically, the weakness of the argument has always been that those who choose the lesser evil forget very quickly that they chose evil.

— Hannah Arendt
