Pretty typical of left leaning voters. Lots of issues, lots of arguing, very little in the way of coming together. Give the Right one thing: They will come together to fuck you over.

I'd be voting PSL if I got a vote at all

You could make this meme replacing Harris with Trump in the text and replacing Trump with Harris in the pictures and it would be exactly as true, which is to say, not.

It's the GOP that increases their chance of winning the fewer voters vote. They actively try to suppress voters. The more people that vote the higher chance the democrats win

Regardless, not voting or voting third party is not a vote for either major party's candidate, as the meme implies.

I'm still going to tick the Kamala box, but I'm ashamed of how little she's trying to be a good candidate. After Nov4, I'll get going with direct action.

Exactly, her winning is not the end. We need to apply a massive amount of pressure since she is a neoliberal.

What specifically do you think she should do better on?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Medicare for All. The insurance pyramid scheme is getting more and more insane

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago (1 children)

She was a big champion of Medicare for all in 2020. It is indeed a shame she isn't talking about it now like she did last election. Judging from her 2020 rhetoric though, it is definitely something she would be open to doing if given a cooperative government, I think.

Main issue for most people is the fact that she's not trying harder to stop Israel from killing Palestinians.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (6 children)

Man you must really be angry at the rest of world too right? I mean at least her team is working for a cease fire, that's more than the rest of the world is doing. Or are you pushing some form of narrative?

Oh and I'm sure your response will have something to say about dems not doing anything, need to cut funding, ect. I'll say there's a 10 year weapons contract that was signed in 2016. Then you'll bring up the Leahy Law, then I'll bring up without Israel Iran will run roughshot over the middle east killing loads of people.

Then we can go back and forth, I'll ask two questions, you'll answer one of them with some bullshit.

So, you can save it, I'll leave it as it is and I'll continue to be disgusted with Israel and the world by not stepping up and stopping the genocide. You can keep posting bullshit about it being the dems fault.

Well, there's not much she can do atm as vice-president. It's very well-known that Biden is very pro-Israeli.

Her rhetoric on the topic as a candidate has been very mixed. She's been improving since she had that meeting with Uncommitted leaders. Hopefully she can have a better plan than "ask nicely for a ceasefire" to present to voters before the election.

Harris said that as president, she would maintain the US alliance with Israel and “ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself.”

To most people that sounds like she'll keep sending weapons which will then be used to murder Palestinians.
