    On the one hand it's naive of us to think our voting bloc is big enough to make any demands. On the other hand we have to vote for Kamala or she loses and trump would be worse

      Exactly, the Democratic Party is loudly stating to the left "We don't need your votes to win so fuck off" and then reddit libs scream bloody murder at people for not wanting to vote for them. If you have a problem with the left abandoning Kamala, maybe talk to her campaign who has written them off as unnecessary?

      I'm glad I don't live a swing state so I can vote whoever I want without it effecting things.

    I think many people still don’t get the message here.

    You’re voting for Harris not because she has the policy you want, but because you want to avoid retribution when Empress Harris feels the same urge of locking up some black kids during her prosecutor days, she’s going to go over a list of voters and see which demographic did not pledge their fealty to her.

    If American leftists behave properly, then Empress Harris might be merciful enough to keep you alive for another day. It is humiliating but that’s what you gotta do to survive, avoid retributions and organize under oppression. With Trump, there is no pleading for mercy. The GOP is out for blood and Trump has vowed to kill all “Marxists and communists” in America if he wins again.

    This is truly the most important election in American history (until the next one).

    I've been causing myself psychic damage lately by arguing with these people in lemmy.ml threads. I should stop for my own good, but I like to think the psychic damage goes both ways at least.
