Good to know raping children isn’t a red line for you, or at least that stopping the end of democracy in the US and mass deportations and etc is… well… idk, I need to know a little more about the alternative before I come out against that stuff.

Biden pardoned every prisoner in federal prison for possession (which wasn’t many; most are in prison at the state level, but if you’re one of them, it’s significant.) And, the Democrats introduced multiple bills to legalize marijuana.
Because voting’s not important and the Democrats aren’t good enough, though, there were enough Republicans in place that a couple of tepidly oppositional Democrats were enough to defeat the legalization bills.
The other guy rapes children and wants to shoot protestors with live ammunition
Ha. It’s not you, it’s just the instant spin-up of the “why not to vote for the Democrat” machine is gonna make people touchy about even a perfectly reasonable article that starts to cast about through the years for reasons to evaluate Harris poorly, with its implied pretense that we need to evaluate her for any length of time before deciding that voting for her is better than the alternative who is very literally worse than letting rabid dogs loose in a children’s hospital.
So what we she doing while she was prosecutor?
“Prosecuting crimes”
What the fuck, that’s outrageous. She should have been legislating for better laws and refusing to enforce the ones that I personally don’t agree with, now, in the modern day. Well. Anyway. What was the other guy doing during this time?
“Raping children”
Well I can’t see how putting him in charge of the most powerful country in the world, with an army of followers already organized to disable its democratic safeguards, could go wrong. Did anything go wrong with it last time? The more I think about it the more I feel like this election might be the perfect time to do some pointless grandstanding.
I would have voted for Biden, but now
We need both.
Voting is the ground troops. It can take and hold through steady progress, and without it, any gains will be 100% illusory in the long run.
Direct action is the air support. It can overcome obstacles which no amount of ground troops will do anything to win over; without it, the troops will just die pointlessly no matter their numbers.
Yeah. And she polls better than literally everyone else who isn’t a weird and nonsensical spoiler insertion. So you could say that’s as close to a primary as we will get.
Abortion: Isn’t Hitler
Immigration: Isn’t Hitler
More: Isn’t Hitler
I mean… sure, please, continue. I’m not tryin to be snarky while you’re in the middle of informing the electorate. But also, one could very sincerely argue that saying literally anything without also offering the context that she isn’t Hitler and that’s all that really matters… is failing to inform the electorate, to at least a certain significant extent.
If it's unlawful not to go to the primaries, was the Republican Party breaking the law all that time?
The law of "Hey Mr. Supreme Court can you just say we won the election? I mean if not it's all cool, we can wait and try to do it the other way I guess, but it'd be really cool if you just could say out loud, you know what, fuck democracy we pick the winners now. Wouldn't that be pretty hot? If you just did that, just said it out loud?"
It's telling that the big thing the guy cared about in terms of each candidate's impact was the NordStream pipeline sabotage.
(Not that I think Biden was behind the pipeline exploding necessarily, just that it's an odd thing to pick out as a big impact of Biden's term in office.)
The other guys wants to “deport” every single illegal immigrant.
Apparatus like that, once set up, usually finds applications which weren’t in the planning documents when they were presented for public consumption.
Honestly? Harris is not my favorite pick. But pretending that voting against Trump needs some kind of evaluation against the other alternative is pure poppycock.
