Lets not pretend the presidential election is all about gender and nothing else. Thats just not true.
Were there other problems in Clinton and Harris than the gender, then? (Except them "lying" that Trump would use the army against US civilians, of course)
Clinton is a fuckin capitalist and Harris is a fucking neoliberal. Neither of them actually care about anything more than upholding the status quo. They are not working class or even for the working class.
This all being said, status quo is far better than fascism, but we can do better.
Basically, just like someone being a woman wouldn't make them a bad president, it would also not make them a good one. Having good policies makes you a good president.
The status quo is a slow slide into fascism. And we are at the end of that slide. At some point, and that point was 2016, enough people would rather vote for the fascist than the woman that, at best, would continue the slow decline.
Agreed.
