    a whole new grouping has arisen to give criticism to Harris and say that as good progressives they could never vote for a cop.

    I mean, in both cases people are entitled to their honest opinions. I’m going to vote for her, but I’m not happy about it. Not being happy about her her career pre-whitehouse seems fairly reasonable to me.

      “People are entitled to their honest opinions” - but that wasn’t what was happening - a bunch of rightwingers posting as leftwingers were spending a lot of time trying to convince democrats not to vote. They had paragraphs to say about why Biden was terrible but could never find the same level of detail or ire about Trump, whereas someone who was genuinely leftwing would have a lot more to say about Trump than Biden by way of criticism.

        Ah right OK, I’ve seen those folks. I think I was reading the tone of the discussion as general frustration with anyone who was dissenting.
