Do dummies actually think she’s more “radical” than Biden? Maybe if we beg madam hard enough she’ll give us healthcare!
It does make me wonder why folks like that protest at Harris events but not Trump events, given what Trump has said about how he’d handle Palestine.
The best way I’ve heard it described is like this: Republicans are werewolves outside the cabin openly howling for blood. I expect no consideration from them.
Liberals are other humans in the cabin with us who, despite professing to hate and fear the werewolves, refuse to hand over the silver bullets or lock any doors. I have been told that they want what I want, so their constant capitulation to the werewolves’ demands arouses baffled frustration.
They think they can maybe sway Harris/the dems in general. Not unreasonable, seeing as IIRC they stand to potentially lose Michigan due to its (relatively) large muslim community which will likely have reduced turnout if her policies stay the same.
There is no convincing Trump or the repubs. Their voter base LOVES genocide. The only people who aren’t onboard are some of the more extreme neo-nazis, who only disagree because they hate jews (I note here that Israel is not representative of all jews, and to claim so is anti-semitic, but these are neo-nazis) more than they hate muslims.
Sway them into what? A Trump victory?
Edit: Oh okay. You think these protestors can stop Harris from funding Israel. But any leftist who points out how pointless it is to convince neoliberals to not do neoliberal things is… a neoliberal?
That doesn’t strike you as naive? Believing the USA of all countries will stop funding Israel because of protestors?
The people excited about her are fine with that. They would’ve been big into in 2016.
Only people on this site would get me when I say I’m utterly baffled how I’m watching the exact same force that “organically” coalesced to endorse Biden in 2020 when was about to run away with it. Not like he would’ve done anything, but think about how much of a threat a negligible tax increase posed.
Absolutely terrifying how organized the bourgeois are. How do people not recognize that they’re just as subservient to US capital as the people of the CPP are to socialist characteristics

They recognize it just fine. They simply do not care. Remember a lot of Americans think of themselves as “temporarily embarrassed billionaires.” Or their adherence to the white, cisshit, male power structure means they will gladly stamp out anything that threatens that power.
Despite the obviousness of the DNC rallying around Biden during the primary, they still got more people to vote along the party line. They still had to get the majority of votes for Biden and that’s exactly what happened because so-called liberals want to uphold American hegemony more than they want healthcare or education.
She’s presently a blank canvas that libs can project all of their own wants and desires on.
Funny enough the chuds pulled the same shit with Trump, still do to some extent too.
She’s not a blank canvas though. She has a record, she has positions - and more importantly we know the positions she abandoned when she ran for president in 2020. That makes radlibs thinking she’s going to be any different than Biden is silly
They did the same thing with Obama, projecting positions that he he had never held onto him to make him the candidate they wanted him to be.
Unfortunately kamala is not nearly as hated as Hillary, so I feel like this one is in the bag
