A political boycott can only work when it's done by a party or candidate's genuine voters. Here in the UK, the Tories were pressured over Brexit by the threat of Tory voters switching to Nigel Farage's Brexit Party. That won't work with Biden because the far left were never going to vote for him.

The protest voting some did during the Democratic primary this year is an example of protest voting that can send a message without negatively impacting material conditions for others. It’s weird that people get butt-hurt by simple math: staying home or writing in “Deez Nutz” only helps Trump.
