   As always, I'll vote for the Dem ticket come November.

   But I find any initial excitement I felt when Harris and Walz became the candidates has dissolved under the weight of giving lip service to ceasing supporting Israel in its racist war of genocide.

   I think it's pretty clear that they're both going to be sending more munitions to support that country's butchery.

   Each part of my pay and my labor goes toward supporting racist murder and that really upsets me.

   I am made an accomplice to evil.

     And remember, there's a whole conservative judiciary and other right wing stooges in the government who are waiting to come into play during a close election.

     It might be overturned.

     I hope the Dem's didn't fuck themselves during the convention but they might have.

     It's not that I wasn't expecting this. I was. However, their refusal to even allow a Palestinian speaker on stage is the shit cherry on top of the shit sundae.

     It was a pretty clear "Fuck you, we're not going there." moment in how this ticket is going to approach matters should they make it into office.

     And they still may not make it into office because they've pissed off demographics that they need to do more than squeak by in November.
