I don’t “hate” her she just doesn’t do much for me or represent my values as a voter. My biggest qualm is “she’s a cop” she was the attorney general and described herself as the “top cop” of California. She’s deeply entrenched in a very broken system and it does not serve her or those aligned with her to change that system. Those who understand the system is broken and it “going back to normal” as in pre-Trump, doesn’t actually fix said system it just rewinds it a bit. I will vote for Harris every day of the week over a Republican presidential candidate don’t get me wrong, but I don’t like it, I do understand the value of choosing the lesser evil and the importance of fighting back against accelerationism. I’m sure plenty of people hate her, as far as who she is as a person I’m ambivalent it’s just her politics are more of the status quo and that’s not my politics.
