Yes, the classic "lesser of two evils" stance to justify an arbitrary formation of social support behind "literally anything better than the worst possible thing". And in this context right now, actually being used to shut down all criticism of anything besides the "worst possible thing". No awareness at all about all the other better alternatives. You could actually prove that this mentality drives the status quo further towards "fascism" or any other negative totalitarian outcome, because you're specifically forbidding criticism of what's going wrong with who you support.
If people who disapprove of fascism don't vote, well then, we get fascism.
Doesn't matter if you think it's not your fault; we still get fascism.
Doesn't matter if you say the whole system is a disaster; we still get fascism.
Doesn't matter if you pinky-swear to go punch a Nazi instead of voting; we still get fascism and you go to prison.
I promise you, the fascists will show up and vote for fascism.
Personally, my principles say "fascism is bad, let's not have one of those" and I don't believe in compromising on that.

It is not a well thought-out stance.
