What will it take for staunch Democrats to vote third party? (x.com)

With the dust is settling from their defeat on Tuesday, it's becoming clearer that there was some incredible malpractice going on in the Democratic party. As shown in the tweet I linked, Biden delayed dropping out even though his team knew it was going to be a complete blowout for Trump. Then, we have Harris's campaign spending over a billion dollars and still losing all of the swing states she needed to win.

For all the Democrats who would never vote Republican and would have never voted third party, are you now considering voting third party in future elections? If not, what would it take?

Electoralism will never be the answer, and never has been, for getting what is necessary.

I tend to agree, but the people I'm asking aren't ready to consider anything but electoralism.

That doesn't change much, all that means is that it's important to show why Electoralism is not the answer.
