    Also leftists who refused to vote at all because Harris didn’t solve the Middle East conflicts from the Vice President’s desk.

      Wait wait wait… So you’re saying the vice president isn’t the same as the queen and can’t just do whatever she wants?

      I voted for Harris, because I believe in trying to be practical and try to reduce harm, but I also won’t even think of speaking ill of those who refused to endorse genocide just because the other guy might do genocide without the pathetic finger-wagging the Biden administration did as they handed over more and more and more bombs. It was a hard choice, and I chose pragmatics and harm reduction, but I also know that some fucking dweeb in the DNC is going to read that number as an endorsement signal for the platform of “genocide is okay as long as we tut at them while we hand them bombs”.
