If you go into the Red states and proclaim your candidate is a Socialist you’ll bring in many, many more Red voters. In fact, calling a candidate Socialist is probably a great way to get some of their voters shot.
But this reflects an imbalance of power, rather than popularity. Yes, you can run as a socialist. Yes, you can build up a large movement of enthusiastic participants. Yes, you can march through the streets on your way to the voting booth.
And then what happens… Just a little recreational fentanyl followed by lighting my car on fire. Normal stuff. Happens all the time. Or maybe I find a 6-foot python in my car. shrug
So what exactly is your great plan?
Obviously, just keep voting for the person the TV tells me to vote for and keep my head down until I die of old age.
Nothing you wrote disproves my main point.
Harris is as good as we’re going to get, and it’s by no means assured that she’ll win.

“Sorry, fuckwits, should have moved to California if you didn’t want to die of sepsis” isn’t an invigorating national policy.

You remind me of that Ben Franklin quote.
Many men die at twenty five, but aren’t buried for another sixty years.
Benjamin Lay would have rolled his eyes at that one.
Your comment is both obscure and pointless.
