MODERATORS
End First Past the Post and make it illegal for the parties to cheat in their primaries. Get money out of politics.
It’s so brave for Kamala to stand up and openly demonstrate how corrupt the Democratoc party is. Right now, they know we don’t have a say and are laughing at those of us who just immediately got in line with pro-genocide, anti-Single Payer, anti-anything that would materially improve the conditions of the low and middle classes in the US. In fact, they’d rather lose the election than put popular populist ideas into their right wing lite platform because in the next cycle, it will allow them to fundraise without having to EVER listen to their constituents.
Kamala Harris: She’s for(gainst) anything a true leftist would want. She’s exactly as leftist as George W. Bush buuuuuut AT LEAST SHES NOT TRRRRRUMP!!!
Edit: look at all the downvotes but not a single person has made a convincing rebuttal. I’m sure I’ll be banned soon for writing this.
Libs in 2016: "trump is anti-american and his policy on funding the police, the death penalty, building the wall, fracking, and he will destabilize the middle east!!! He is a threat to democracy!!!"
Libs in 2024: "Actually trump wasn't hard enough on border control, we removed anything about the death penalty from our platform, we love fracking now, and we will support a pariah state no matter what. But it's okay because MY team is doing it."
Please open your eyes people, Kamala is to the right if Trump's policies from 2016, it's pathetic to blindly support that witch.
