"The most common sign I saw at the No Kings rallies was the following, “If Kamala was president, we’d all be at brunch.” If you carried that sign, you might as well announce to the crowd you’re a self centered/vapid human being.
Under Harris, we’d still have Palestinians being slaughtered with immunity from Israel. Or, we’d still have thousands on the streets facing homelessness. That sign says none of that matters to you. None.
But I’m not surprised. These people don’t care about Palestinians or the homeless. They just care about getting their team into office, which is de facto getting their faction of the oligarchy into office.
What a stupid sign. "

Well, she did say that she would have done nothing different than under Biden. She literally said so.
So you have the candidate saying she'd continue the policies under which Palestinians were slaughtered with immunity from Israel and thousands faced homelessness on the streets.
And you have some voters of that candidate saying that they would not be protesting such policies because they would be at brunch.
I mean, who exactly are you defending here?
Plus, obviously OBVIOUSLY, this is a jab at centrist complacency and an exposition that these people would NOT be interested in holding the least bad candidate's feet to the fire. So what exactly are you actually reacting against?
Harris threw the election because she was unwilling to hold Israel accountable. It was plain as day how it was going to turn out if she didn't change course, and it was infuriating to watch the train wreck unfold in real-time.
Yes, I still voted for Harris for the sake of my fellow Americans, but lots of potential voters stayed home.
