I acknowledge what you’re saying, and acknowledge I’m pretty myopically focused on the abject evil that is trump.
A thread like this isn’t the space for future building. This is a thread on the discussion of an election. So no surprise the conversation is focused on that.
There no possible way to do as you said, in fall 2024. Edit or any other fall during 2 party, fptp where the leading candidates are already selected.
Of course other countries do it differently. It’s great. But changing the whole electoral process between September and November is a joke.
Edit edit and now instead of working on grassroots candidates or platform change, this nose holding Harris voter is instead spending my community time exclusively looking after the at risk people in my network, rather than working on horizon goals. Trump and co have contracted the threat window so massively the goals have changed.
You can’t dismantle the DNC and put forward a replacement leading candidate in the fall of an election year.
The discussion on “hold your nose and vote for Harris, to keep trump out” has an unsaid (but often completely said) primer clause of “the DNC is shit and must change, it’s a priority of 2025 and beyond.”
I haven’t seen one Harris voter claiming they were stoked about her or the DNC.
Trump IS a moral dilemma, and given one vote, and no time to change things, the only option is to reduce harm. THEN build a better future.
No one is screaming down a nose holding Harris voter. She was a shit candidate with shit policy.
But given the only two options, she would have been better for people all around the world. Including Gaza.
There’d be a chance of stopping things. But now trump is drawing up condo plans
Slower death with the ability to continue advocacy and refugee work.
Slower death means more people escape while peace talks occur. More people will die now, at an increased rate.
Rather than Israel getting some, insufficient but existing friction, they now have completely free reign
That blame is ongoing. But it wasn’t going to change anything in the fall off 2024. The train already left the station. Given that, when trump was one of the tracks, the only sane option was to avoid it. All other logic is secondary after that.
“Biden/Harris must stop what’s happening in Gaza! The status quo isnt acceptable at all, but at least advocacy and support groups will have the ability to continue lobbying the government under Harris. Under trump they’ll be branded terrorists and deported to remote prisons”
Missed that one.
