I was told by a strong player at the table (BTN) that I should call because I have BB covered, however- my argument was that I can be blown off any hand post-flop because there is a side pot and my hand isn't strong enough even to handle that heat even if I flop middle pair. I was stunned by his comment and I think this is an easy fold, thoughts?

A very interesting spot because if I have the BB covered this becomes an easy allin. However, 33 plays pretty horribly vs 2 random hands and if either of them beats me I'm out. EZ fold obv?
