I know I’m going against the grain here, I’m obviously no Harris lover, but also I’d prefer to be allowed to continue existing. If that’s controversial in leftist spaces then maybe I don’t want to spend any more time in leftist spaces.

    People who claim both parties are the shame are just showing their privilege.

    It’s the same in the UK, do Labour come anywhere close to having the policies I want? No. Are they closer to them than the Tories? Yes.

    Vote on one day, organise on the other 1200+ days.

      The critique I have on people who say that is that most people don’t organise because they feel like they already did their job by voting. I don’t care if and how you vote. I do care if you don’t do anything about the fucking genocide.

      No People who claim both parties are the same think both want to kill them with good reason. Muslim and Nortenio populations have good reason to distrust both R and D; as both have tried to kill them and their families.

    People who don’t vote for Harris are helping Trump win this election. It’s as simple as that.

      I have no skin in this game since I don’t live in the US, but we’ve been in a similar situation here in France regarding the constant Macron vs Lepen elections. For what it’s worth, I feel sick everytime I vote for Macron, but I always remember that a racialized fried told me “If you can’t even bring yourself to feel slightly sick to protect minorities from fascism, then are you sure you’re actually an ally?”

      How about your queer kid living under Netanyahu. What’s the price on their head. Biden/Harris are Israels bitch that just asks how deep they have to swallow.

          If this is why she losses it will literally be 2012 again you dumb fucks. Cut the people you need to win and you die.

          IF she win she sold you out to the Republicans. I hope you understand what that means.

      Wait, not voting for trump is controversial? I thought voting for trump is reserved for literal Nazis, considering how anything Trump and Project 2025 does and plans mimic Hitler perfectly. Basically the only piece missing, which could potentially be in Project 2025 and not have leaked, is legalizing and building concentration camps.

      Not voting Trump is a no-brainer, wtf. Even if it would mean voting eg. Epstein, he’s done less crimes and is not a nazi. Trump means slowly transforming the US into germany 2.0, just much more powerful. Also fucking economy worldwide.
