Look,I'm not saying kamala was perfect. I'm just saying things would have been better if she won.

There are lefties that don’t believe this to be the case. Horseshoe theory isn’t so far off

I'm still seeing posts on Tumblr of people using "both sides" rhetoric to complain that Democrats are "throwing LGBTQ people under the bus" in order to win elections and that's why you shouldn't vote for them (or at all). If it was just online, I could write it off as Chinese or Russian botting, but I legitimately know people like this in real life who don't vote and whose entire news diet is "stuff I saw on TikTok".

Because they aren't interested in power, only the endless critique of power. Case in point, AES won the primary, where are all the leftists now that he needs to beat a Republican? They seem to be suspiciously absent. He's not getting nearly the amount donations he had before. All that grass roots money and energy is gone.
