Brother I voted harris. And while I fucking wish that everyone was either politically conscious enough or willing to let the ego drop for the time required to keep a Nazi out, they ain't. They never have and they never will. It's wishing upon a star and being utterly depressed and pissed that your wish didn't come true. It is better to blame the things in life you can change than wishing people were just different.

Ultimately you are upset at people for not ignoring the obvious failings of the DNC rather than upset at the DNC for not fixing their shit. They keep courting the right wing, they keep running Republican talking points. Right now I tune into CN fucking N and get some democrat strategist blaming trans people for existing.

I cannot blame the people who didn't vote. The DNC actively fucked them over, spit on them and told them shut up and stop protesting. That pisses people off and turns them away from you.

While I too wish we could do a lesser evil route here, that is wishing upon a star and no amount of shaming by you or the DNC will change that. Your yelling at a wall.
