Believing that something is bad doesn't make a person an absolutist. We all believe that something or other is bad.
Your acceptance of the lesser of two evils is an acknowledgement of exclusively sub optimal ranges. The moral decision to make if forced between the lesser of two evils..is what?
The lesser evil. This is referred to as a final moral good. I rolled the answer to your q in a quick edit. Both psuedo realism and absolutist deontology rely on us acting as though these things were true while in possession of the knowledge that they are not. Not on "accepting a lie". This, also, can be contextualized as a final moral good.
