      Kamala Harris refused to take any steps to distance herself from an unpopular incumbent in order to motivate people to vote for her. Stop punching down, the people we need to be angry at are our “leaders”.

          I doubt many people who would have voted Harris voted for Trump. Trump basically got the same amount of votes he did last time, but dem turnout collapsed because Harris ran a center right campaign that didn’t resonate with her base. All the fucking idiots that ran that campaign need to be pilloried. They delivered us to fascism because they can’t stand their own base and would rather appeal to nonexistent decent republicans.

    Isn’t drinking pollution the same thing that the guy who invented leader gasoline did? But he allegedly faked it, naturally.

    Reminds me of this man, over exactly 100 years ago. To quote:

    On October 30, 1924, Midgley participated in a press conference to demonstrate the apparent safety of tetraethyl lead (TEL), in which he poured TEL over his hands, placed a bottle of the chemical under his nose, and inhaled its vapor for sixty seconds, declaring that he could do this every day without succumbing to any problem.
