  • To blow off the fact that she would be the first woman president and to trivialize her to a token representative speaks a lot about your mindset

    let me detail out the “tokens” here. do know that i am of indian origin as well.

    • immigrant : her mother comes from a upper caste rich family, whose grandfather was a officer in imperial service while many indians were being killed and jailed during its independence struggles. an upper caste privilege in india was worse than white privilege in US at that tie. her mother was able to come to here as an entitlement. so when dnc uses her as a symbol for immigrant struggles it irks a lot of indian’s whose parents have to escape india because of corruption and casteism and had to work hard get here and survived in early days.

    and then there is her advocating for border wall and getting tough on immigration so basically adopting trump policy from 2016.

    • as a non-white she doesn’t seem very empathetic to them : this is an article from 2020 in herrald when she was already chose as vp.

    she was chosen over warren (a woman) as vp because lobbyist and mega-rich donors told bidden not to. if not for that she would never even gotten to be a dnc candidate here in 2024. warren was 3rd in the primaries way ahead if harris. warren today would have won by a landslide today and she has already called out on genocide.

    so yes she is a token candidate from establishment.

    i am not even going to address other points as not voting or supporting gop. if a vp and presidential nominee not even have power of condemning mass killing of children with our money then what’s the point of voting for them. choosing lesser evils never works it only brings more evil as we saw in 2020.

    then there are stunts like this which confirms to me that she is just a lobbyists placeholder.


  • they are the same vocal minority as those on dnc side who have said if trumps wins then they want all muslims who didn’t vote for harris to be deported to gaza.

    they two parties may not be the same but they are both bad and corrupt enough that we need to start voting them out. after 2016 primaries i have no confidence in dnc to not rig the primaries against an actual liberal candidate again.

    there are easy things harris can still do to improve her chances but she is not even moral enough to disapprove genocide, progressive enough to disapprove fracking. she has failed upwards in the corrupt dnc as a token minority whose career has been of a smug prosecutor who has only looked down on minorities.

    but hey why not just run a propaganda campaign against jill stein who has been pro-climate since 1998.














  • this 2016 excuse that only drove people away from dnc, so i am ok with it. the gall to bring that up when they used every party resource and media to sabotage bernie.

    also russia would be very happy with dnc given they have

    • diverted majority of aid to israel so that they can flatten every home in gaza and kill hundreds of civilians everyday
    • polarized the world against us
    • ensured for next few decades that we will be spit on every time we use words like warcrime or human rights in a sentence.

    if it was under trump, only he would have been blamed, but thanks to biden now the entire nation is complicit.

    and lemmy.ml was the top result in kagi but this bigotry makes no sense anyway.



  • we all know why dnc lost in 2016 people are going to be pissed if they claim to fight for democracy while fucking over their base. and that too for someone like Hillary ?

    i voted for her then, then voted for biden and in last four years it has became the most depressing decision of my life. seeing him smugly hug netanyahu and him getting a gandhi treatment in senate has completely shattered my trust.

    to be clear i am not some rich christian white guy who is not gonna be affected by trump, i am also a indian heritage as harris, a country which has also suffered colonial oppression as recently as world war 2. whats going on in gaza is not something i can look over as a taxpayer and a human being.

    and dnc don’t even want to fix this, they are happy with duopoly where they get to fool us every few years. look into jill stein record of why she left DNC. she was then fighting for coal workers working in cancerous air in mines while harris was prosecuting homeless and poor for petty crimes and advocating for harsher sentences. and now the dnc is using the lobbyists money to malign her with false narratives in a massive pr campaign.
