A protest has two functions:
I agree with what you said in this block.
No, the half of your country that is fine with fascism is too blame.
*Also to blame.
A week ago, Harris was hailed like the second coming of Christ and now the cause of the fall of USA into Fascism.
Not by all of us. I didn’t want her in 2020, either. She’s a glorified cop. Example: as a DA, how many people did she imprison for marijuana charges? But then she ran on legalization? I know there’s more to this and nuance is everything, but that hypocrisy is and example.
Applying the law but wanting it to change is what is called “rule of law” and democracy. Not understanding it is a part of what makes it so easy to slide into fascism.
“Nuance” my ass. Expecting a DA to follow its conviction instead of the law is the opposite of what you want.
That’s what I was getting at. Frankly, I wouldn’t want a DA or any cop-adjacent to run the country. Better her than the Orange Turd, but I’m splitting hairs here.
Anyone should have been a shoe-in against him. But they weren’t. She wasn’t. It wasn’t a single factor. We will scream until we’re blue in the face, pun intended, but in the end, the Dems fucked this.
The candidate they ran was not better than Trump at connecting with the populace. As a result, we got a false populist.
A female DA against a rapist who should be in jail. I don’t know in what universe it wasnt a good match.
