Thought y'all had given up on electoralism when Bernie dropped out and that the consensus was none of Biden's VP picks actually mattered..

So what's with the new wave of doomerposting? Basically nothing's changed.

    For me, it's less the choice itself and more the reaction to it. My family has a groupchat and right now it's really bad. A lot of stuff about how great a choice she is for completely aesthetic reasons, and I get very politely shouted down whenever I suggest there's anything at all wrong with either Biden or Kamala (at least I got my mom to apologize for constantly bringing up Trump as if I wasn't aware he existed).

    EDIT: I bring up Kamala being a Tough on Crime prosecutor and I get told "well I don't think Trump will use that, and if he does it won't work, so who cares?" That shit's the main reason for me being in doomer mode right now

      yeah maybe I don't like tough-on-crime politicians because I don't like tough-on-crime policies, not because I'm playing some stupid ass game where I try and predict what other people think of a presidential candidate who I only like because I think other people like them
