If you are comfortable with that, it's your choice. I prefer what Kamala said in her concession speech today, that she concedes the vote win, but will not concede the values that she fought for in her campaign and will continue to fight for.

Roll over and play dead is a cute dog trick. It earns them treats and affectionate hugs from their humans. But when human beings roll over and play dead for other human beings, there are no treats and no hugs. They just get trampled on.
