Sure, vote for the DSA. Make sure to do more than vote though, as I have made abundantly clear. Go beyond electorialism.

How about one which isn’t run by the GOP and accomplishes more than peeling off enough votes to let them win?

The whole argument of voting for democrats, despite them having the same policies as republicans, is the argument that long term change can be affected.
If you buy that you must accept republican policy in order to slowly affect change, which you do by voting democrat, then the logical conclusion is that one must make that trade in the most effective manner. Which would be by voting third party.

I don't accept that. I accept that you made that up to justify voting for Republicans and making things worse.
