Flowery way to put it. Vote suppression is fine for me.

I'd more likely agree that it's a cold way to put it. Hardly flowery, and hardly is someone trying to convince you to vote a certain way voter suppression. That's just called politics. That's like, the core conceit of an election, no less.

If you're going to protest vote at least be honest about what it is, "it's not a spoiler vote, I'm just intentionally not voting for the candidate I [most likely] prefer on this candidate I know won't win."
