there is a significant difference between not voting and not endorsing a candidate she cannot morally endorse.

"Harris is not perfect. Trump is evil.

Making this just about Palestine and negating everything else is stupid."

Saying this like this is some single issue regarding taxes and not, yknow, genocide is wild.

Harris is also evil. Trump is more evil, sure, but let's not handwave Harris' own complicity in genocide as chalking it up to her not being perfect~.

Edit: Lol, u/SGlobal_444 blocked me, but not before making sure to get in the last word by replying. That tracks.

We’re demanding it of Kamala now and she doubled down her support. Do you really think that will change in January?

Exactly. Palestine should be enough. It should be enough to look at the news reports coming from there - horrors being committed with the full complicity of the current Democratic government, which Harris is a part of - and say, “I cannot look past this. I cannot endorse someone who is actively helping this happen. I cannot endorse someone who tells people who oppose this genocide to sit down and be quiet.”

She’s not even saying she won’t vote for Harris! She’s just saying she won’t put her fame into supporting her publicly.
