I'm sitting it out too. No other candidate is a credible alternative, and I'm tired of pissing in the wind.
Definitely I will vote for decent down-ballot candidates and fortunately my Democratic representative, Lloyd Doggett, is worth voting for.
Instead of voting, I'm doing everything I can think of to slow down this genocide. This week I'm writing all the ambassadors of countries that colluded with the US in cutting UNRWA funds right after the ICJ order for Israel to allow more aid. I spent hours writing the most persuasive letter in the wind. [Cheers to Spain, who TRIPLED its UNRWA aid; and to the five other countries who didn't go along with it; Belgium's building got bombed in revenge.]
That's probably pissing in the wind too, but even if it's a long shot it beats voting for West (whom I used to admire but I now think is a non-serious narcissist after his antics this year) or Stein. For me. I'm fine with those who evaluate it differently and choose to vote for them. I also even understand those who go on and vote for Biden on various grounds. But I can't, after genocide and now this cruel immigration bill he's pushing.
