    The only people with a conscience left saying they’ll vote for her in my experience are people who are particularly desperate about women’s healthcare and who are sucking it up. I imagine that’s why she’s so desperate for male voters.

      if kamala wins those people are gonna be really disappointed when women’s healthcare continues to be dismantled and she does fuck all about it just like the dems now, and always. Obama regime had for a while full majority in both bodies of congress and majority governorships and executive and a sympathetic to RoevWade court and could have enshrined abortion rights and contraceptive access right then and there (as well as LGBTQ civil rights protections and countless other things) rather than letting it sit in a tangential legal precedent. but they did nothing other than bail out the banks and allow the ruining of vast swathes of working class (and largely PoC) families. Then didn’t pressure RBG to retire and also gave away an open seat (so 2 supreme court seats) for free to the Dems’ “good friends across the aisle” meaning the veritable Holden Bloodfeasts of the Republican party. And now Biden is denouncing even the idea of expanding or packing the court and has done very little, close to nothing, against womens’ and LGBTQ rights being stripped everywhere; and even kept on a bunch of Trumps’ reactionary and corporate-thug judges on.

      I’ve been trying to explain this to people so hopefully if/when that happens they can become radicalized because this shit is not working, has not worked, and will not work.
