That's like saying the US is good for materially enabling Israels genocide in Palestine because the US is killing people more indirectly than Israel.
Critique has nothing to do with voting.
This is the worst "both sides" straw man argument I've seen in a while.
It's not a straw man. It's pointing out the false premise of the meme.
You can vote for a bad thing because it's better than a worse thing. Indeed I've done it my whole life. 🤷
