Kamala isn't "getting the wrong ice cream flavor" compared to Trump.

She is still genocide, racism, incarceration, transphobia and the rest which you call Trump.

She just sugarcoats it.

The sugarcoating does make it palatable, but a palatable slavery to the rich is still a slavery to the rich.

I don't want a country run by a few guys getting rich off of bombing and incarcerating.

If you talk to anyone affected by the proposed policies you'd know there's a fucking lightyear of distance between the two. Its not sugar coating. You can measure the difference in gallons of human blood.

Gay and trans people are fucked by this. The supreme court is fucked by this. Ukraine is fucked by this. The climate is fucked by this. Immagrants are fucked by this. There's now a real risk of entire cities in the US having the military used on them if they defy police. I'm sure you saw the people in portland being disappeared in vans during the riots there in 2020.

Every extra person that dies or suffers because of this shit is on the bloody hands of assholes that sat this election out because picking a lesser evil was too hard of a choice for their delicate constitutions.

You are doing all these people a disservice by trying to console them for being cowards and sitting things out. And they are cowards. The only sugar coating going on is to say they are not.

And now we need to toughen them up. Because they chose a more difficult path for everyone.

No one does. But putting Kamala in office would have at least given us an easier conduit towards getting out of it.
