Voting for Kamala would just delay the fascism by another 4 years of regular neoliberal decay and less overt imperialist genocide. I mean, I'd have voted for her too if I was in the US, but blaming people who didn't vote hard enough is counterproductive.
You can't shame people into choosing the lesser evil neoliberalism again. And even if you did (kinda like what happened in 2020), it will just enable the dems to become even worse, because it shows them that they can win by pointing at trump, while increasingly doing the same shit he's doing (because it's ultimately beneficial for their donors).
You need to build something which is not owned by the billionaires, which actually inspires people by promising and building real solutions, showing real improvements in their quality of life, and then they will show up.
If you aren't part of PSL or some other socialist/communist/anarchist org trying to dismantle the oligarchy, you are not part of the solution. This is not to say you are to blame, the blame lies squarely on the ruling class deciding that fascism is worth it because it will increase the rate of profit, everything else be damned.
