oh for sure. i don't trust the dude, and his policy (like all capitalists) has tangible impacts on my quality of life. every moment we don't have universal health care, and specifically universal gender affirming healthcare for one of my specific minority corners, leads to the unnecessary deaths of innocent people. every moment we don't have housing justice, climate justice, and any number of other progressive policies leaves more people in horrific situations. i just don't think electoral politics provides a pathway for anything better at the moment, and if it goes to the red team things get much worse for everybody much quicker.
