when she has a verifiable fascist track record.

I would ask for a source but I know you can't provide that, because your argument's statement is false.

There’s no need to make up some fantasy that she’s a good person. We’re voting for her already.

Kamala is a neoliberal, which is a right of center, or leaning-right, position on the political spectrum. Which means she wants to incrementally improve society. This is insufficient to prevent climate change or fix our democracy. But it's still better than a christo-fascist takeover that will kill millions of people and actively seek to worsen climate change.

Making up a fantasy that she is a fascist is going to hurt her chances in the election. Conflating the candidates, in this case falsely, will suppress voter turnout. So please stop doing it.

Trump is a fascist. He's been talking about the enemy from within and sending the national guard and the military after people on the left.

"I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within … We have some very bad people we have some sick people, radical left lunatics," he said.

Any unrest, Trump said, "should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary by the military, because they can’t let that happen."

She was a prosecutor and disproportionately jailed black men for years, but you might be too willfully ignorant to look it up yourself. Along with supporting bills that hurt the peasants and enrich the rulers.

Look, you're just hurting the cause when you flat out lie. At least be realistic about it. Neoliberal is just your way of spelling fascist. We're voting for her because she is the lesser evil, not because it's deserved.

Note how even diehard supporters will never use any facts from Harris' actual history to support her, they will only ever evoke the Great Orange Fear.

The number of incarcerated people in California people went down under Kamala Harris.

I don't need to argue that there isn't a tea pot in space. But in this case, your argument's claim has already been fact checked.

Yes, this is what your argument is doing. Lying isn't being realistic. Fascism is a real political position not just something to call people you don't like. Vote for Kamala because doing so is useful to achieving socialism and majority rule in the long run.
