    they mostly agree with

    No it’s a candidate you mostly agree with. I for one don’t care for a party that doesn’t fight for medicare for all, doesn’t fight to restore the courts, doesn’t imprison traitors and rapists, that supports genocide, that pumps more funding into cops and ICE, that strives for “the most lethal military in the world”, that continues to subsidize fossil fuels, that legally bars workers striking, that doesn’t bother to codify Roe, and ultimately when they finally get around to doing something, they assume that giving government money to market driven companies will best solve problems.

      Progressive Puritanismtl is the reason why Trump got elected both times.

      Neither Hillary nor Kamala were progressive enough so a large enough portion of people just didn’t vote.

      Meanwhile, so Republicans always vote.

        The problem is that they are not progressive at all. Like literally what position of Harris is progressive? It is all either keeping the status quo or regressive.
