Why is someone's reluctance to vote for your preferred candidate more upsetting to you than said candidate's choice to platform genocide?
Trying to punish Harris for a certain policy ultimately helps Trump. Trump will have the same policy or worse plus all the other shit he wants to do.
And why's that on us? Why is it our job to toe a party line when said line means killing people en masse?
It's supposed to be their job to represent us, not our job to kiss their asses. Stop letting the DNC use Trump as an excuse to do whatever they want; if they want to be more electable, maybe it's on them to adopt a better platform.
Why, I don’t know. The results will definitely be everyone’s problem, though.
