Multiple people can be at fault. The Democratic party definitely fucked up by not holding a primary, but every single person who had a ballot in front of them and decided that letting Trump win was acceptable fucked up even worse
I do find Harris and the party worse. They held all the cards and stupidly decided not no give an inch. Madness.
The Democratic party could and should have done better, but that does not excuse the millions of nonvoters who saw a choice between "some people die" and "exponentially more people die" and decided to effectively flip a coin on it. You are a worse person if you flipped that coin than if you'd just decided to vote for the lower death count.
Not worse than the people perpetrating that genocide, of course. Politicians need to be honest about the Israel Palestine conflict, and influence public opinion away from supporting the genocide. All I'm saying is that that is not an excuse for allowing another genocide against the Latino population in America to happen. Not to mention whoever they'll go after when they're done with that.
Just give it up, theyre the same as Republicans who can't admit they were wrong.
They'll act like theyre morally superior while millions more die because of their vastly misplaced arrogance. More Palestians died and will die. More vulnerable people reliant on USAID will die, and rather than admitting you should try to shift left (And I agree the democratic party is center right at best) they just let the worst possible outcome happen.
Theyre not morally superior, theyre morally bankrupt and mentally deficient.
