In the 2020 elections You could argue that kamala was the weakest candidate out of the whole crop Not even in a leftist way like there were better liberals and centrists I think she did worse than bernie Amy Warren and even shit faced butegig While Biden provided a legacy candidate the top brass liked Bernie and Warren were exciting for the youth Amy was the centrist candidate Even Pete had more popularity

Kamala provided nothing The only reason she was picked for vp was that she was that she provided so many identity cards (black/Asian/female) it filled in the gap of electing an old white man as president

But now in a clear case of astro turfing meme culture is trying to rehabilitate her Even tho she is still the nobody who climbed the ladder who go their by mass incarceration of black people

The token vice president who stood by like a good dog while Biden failed to codeify roe v wad or deliver on campaign promises

In alot of ways she is the face of the Democrat party, a craven sycophant who betrayed her people to climb politics.

    If it's any comfort the hate for her isn't new here, she just didn't come up much because she's basically been a ghost for the past four years

      Exactly. There was plenty of posting about just how bad she was in 2019/20 but VP is not a position where you get to exercise a lot of power so why even talk about her, there's no new news.

      All these articles were compiled and linked years ago: https://dessalines.github.io/essays/socialism_faq.html#kamala-harris

      But now that she's up for election, saying she's unlikable or her record despicable, is just "hatred" and "interesting" timing, apparently... No motherfucker, we've been here the whole time saying the same shit. She sucks, she always did, Khive twitter posting was at least funny but it was just a sideshow because she ran a terrible campaign. But now she stands to take power and attempt to be girlboss obama (neoliberal who does shitty things but tries to have a veneer of progressivism or whatever) except without the charisma, so of course now we're talking about her more than 6 months ago...
