Even as someone who didn't vote Harris, this opinion is objectively wrong

Then why did not vote for her?

Supported Claudia de la Cruz, I didn't agree with everything she campaigned on, but she pushed for big ideas I'm interested in: https://votesocialist2024.com/our-program

I'm sure you've heard this before but doing that under a first past the post voting system was painfully stupid.

And before you say I'm rude or causing a break down in leftist unity by calling you stupid: I'm not going to dance around my honest thoughts anymore. I don't care what happens anymore. My political tact has left my body because the world is probably fucking doomed now anyway so who cares.

Because he's an accelerationist who believes that things getting much worse is a way to spark the revolution and overthrow of American Capital.

Yeah well if that's the case fuck him I'm not fighting in a deadly revolution because his type dragged me into a hell world.

Well yes this is true, but the reason I didn't support Harris was because I supported Claudia. If there literally were no options besides Harris and Trump I would have begrudgingly supported democrats, but thank god we have other options.

Have you heard of the powerball lottery being referred to as a "stupid tax"? People play the Powerball for hopes and feelings and vibes, usually not understanding how infinitesimally small their odds are. They're not going to win, they're just throwing money away to feel better.

You still have better odds of winning the Powerball than Claudia had of winning the general election. It's gonna come out sounding harsh but that's the reality of it.
