I voted for Harris despite being a progressive social democrat with many preferred ideal candidates. I wasn't a couch sitter or part of the uncommitted vote.
But this comment is beyond absurd, lol.
This is exactly the time to be critical of the terrible oppositional leadership. Best time in fact to reform the Democratic party since we're powerless to do anything else.
Either you recognize this, or I'll tag you as a Trump supporter because believing otherwise literally only helps Republicans in 2026 and 2028.
These people just don't believe in or don't want the world to be better. I voted Harris and will probably still vote for whatever presidential ghoul the Democrats push on us, but I'm done providing an ounce of support to team blue beyond that.
The party needs to be undermined for things to get better, because the party has done jack all to prove themselves. They have not been allies, but feudalistic opportunists exploiting the fascist takeover rather than doing anything productive. Unless we force them to share power with the left, they'll just take our support to line their pockets
However, people hear my criticism and only hear me as an anti-voter who will hurt their precious saviors. It's infuriating that they love the blue boot so much that they'll shit on anyone who refuses to deepthroat it.
