By voting for neither you said you were fine with everything Trump and project 2025 promised.
Life doesn't always give you perfect options, but in this case one was significantly worse than the other.
Now instead of getting 4 years to regroup and push progressivism, we get an unknown number of years of fascism.
And all of that is completely ignoring Harris's voting history, which was the closest to Sanders of the other senators, and the fact that as VP she pushed for an official investigation into Israel so they could bypass the law forcing them to provide arms.
No, by voting for neither I voted for nothing Trump and Project 2025 promised. I also was not willing to greenlight genocide of tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of human beings to protect my own comfort by voting for Holocaust Harris.
I disagree that one was worse than the other. Both are entities managed by genocidal monsters and pedophiles. The person who genocides 40,000 people instead of 80,000, or preys on children instead of babies, isn't "the lesser evil", they're both just fucking abhorrently evil.
Right, because that worked so well with the DNC rigging primaries against Bernie Sanders (who is already a compromise insofar as he's a liberal Zionist), Biden praising the police sent to beat nonviolent student protestors at UCLA, promising "no red lines" for the Zionazi entity, Harris campaigning with relative of infamous war criminal and architect of the so-called ""War on Terror" Dick Cheney, and pledging the "most lethal military in the history of the world". I mean for fuck's sake, Trump even pursued cannabis rescheduling before the Dems did!
They didn't codify abortion protections during Obama's presidency when they had a supermajority. They were too busy conducting illegal drone strikes in Yemen.
Aside from identity politics, what examples can you name of instances where anyone successfully pushes the Dems to progressivism within the last 2 Democrat administrations? Because all I can remember is Obama promising "change" and then bragging about how unexpectedly good he was at killing people, and I remember Biden promising "nothing will fundamentally change" to a room full of wealthy campaign donors before he became complicit in the modern-day holocaust... not to mention 'ending' the pandemic when it very much was not over, which is a form of eugenics, which is not generally considered a progressive value. At least not where I'm from.
ok
and what happened as a result of that?
Nothing? Yes, Democrats are excellent actors in our democracy theater routine, at least until recently.
