Roan’s conservative critics are a lost cause—she was never going to win them over, not by dressing up as the Statue of Liberty at this summer’s Gov Ball in New York, smoking a giant fake joint, and screaming about how she had no plans to accept an invitation to the White House. But now, there are plenty of Harris voters and liberals who are angry with her perfectly reasonable but slightly wrinkled position that no government, right now, deserves her loud championship.
There is the crux of it. This is also probably why I found this post downvoted. Anyone pointing out the “both sides bad” argument isn’t very popular on Lemmy.
Hopefully Harris wins this so we can permit a more nuanced discussion of the government and how it is run. Rather than shouting down anything that might remotely strengthen Trump.
Exactly. She is enjoying a meteoric rise to super stardom right now, and I feel like her insistance on using her voice and not just falling in line is meaningful. These candidates don’t really need more famous names coming out in support at this point. We have plenty of celebrities championing Harris and reminding everyone to vote. I don’t know what fan of Chappell Roen would suddenly decide to register and vote in the election at this point. You either care about who you are voting for by now or your head is buried in the sand.
