Hey, if you organise but vote D in the cases where it's the best chance to keep R out, I'm happy
If you don't vote D in the cases where it's the best chance to keep R out, you're effectively supporting R regardless what you're telling yourself. If you're also organising, nice, but if your organising is to convince more people to effectively support R like you, we'd all be better off if you quit.
Oh no, this option isn't perfect in every way for all people, and thus indistinguishable from being worthless?
Let the greater of two evils win until there's a perfect option to vote for. Got it.
If you do electoral reform in just the blue states, you strengthen the republicans who will then take all of the red states, and get a bit of some blue states

Go for it, but also vote D where they're the only realistic option to R.
Otherwise, support for a third party becomes support for R, as previously with the greens
