It's downright depressing. Like the article mentions, she is obviously the better candidate. Anything is better than the absolute deluge of hate and stupidity on the opposite side. However, we still get what amounts to "better than nothing, which is better than republicans". While true, I just wish we had another way in this country other than to watch right-wing fascists and liberal status quo defenders have pissing contests while we (and any nation affected by the actions of ours) are stuck in the crossfire.

We live in a profoundly unequal and militaristic society. America is the only developed country where cash-strapped diabetics die because they try to ration out their insulin. Our billionaires take private space flights while our working class is one of the only in the world that isn’t guaranteed so much as a single day per year of paid vacation. And as Americans argue about what to read into the tea leaves of the latest polls from Pennsylvania, US-supplied bombs are dismembering children in Gaza.

Against this background, it’s bitterly ironic that Trump “accused” Harris of being opposed to US aid to the Israeli military, of being influenced by the views of socialist economists like her father, and of wanting to provide health care to every single American, and that all of these accusations were false. She’s not wrong that much of the country is exhausted by Trump and ready to move on. But we deserve to move on to something far better than anything on offer last night.

Bill Clinton started the party's entire shift to the right and Kamala Harris has completed that transition. Democrats will soon become the dominant conservative party.
