The system is designed in such a way that one side can use the other to coerce you to vote. Voting for Biden is supporting rapists, war criminals, and the system that threatens you into voting for him while telling you it's your "duty" to do so.

you dont have to be a dogmatic materialist. the ruling class doesnt invent moral struggles they just jump on the bandwagon of the popular ones who happen to align with their interest. obviously slavery and nazism wouldnt have been defeated by good ideals alone but i think it gave the winning side an advantage

moralizing isnt reactionary. its a tactic. its intellectually dishonest and manipulative to call people rape enablers just because they vote for biden to get rid of trump, but politics isnt a fair game so im not gonna judge too harshly leftism cant exist without morals, and collective responsibility does not exist without individual responsibility towards that collective. treating voting as a duty instead of a right serves only to give the powerful false legitimacy and i do think it is the responsibility of leftists to dispel that notion and emphasize that politicians have to earn every single vote. i wouldnt go as far as to shame "harm reduction" voters though as long as they dont try any shaming themselves
