Yup. A lot of people don't vote because they don't feel heard. Well. We have a major opportunity right now with how unpopular Donald Trump is and his violent his band of weirdos are about to get. We can get in president Harris and then make ourselves heard as we stand against the violent weirdos. We can say "we the people of the united states of america don't stand for this nonsense. We don't stand for violence being what decides everything. We will resist violence with violence if we must, but we will not allow ourselves to rule with or be ruled by it. If we are going to continue living on this earth we must dismantle the global system of torture we live under and for good. The people of Palestine need to be free. The people of Africa can't constantly be at civil war for what's left of the resources we stole from them. And the Russian Federation cannot continue to be allowed to interfere in elections across the globe"

Harris has made it clear she is willing to court us, willing to be seen listening to us, but she is not willing to like us or be of us. That's fine. Joe Biden has called himself a transition president. Perhaps Kamala will be, too. We just have to show that this matters to us, and that there's too many of us to stop the movement.

I said in another comment that I see Harris as riding a wave of optimism, not as driving it. Well? We are that wave! It would be irresponsible for us to let her ride that wave into the white house without benefit to who's doing it. We must demand what we deserve from all this:

• Food
• Housing
• Fair pay
• Leisure time
• Clean water
• Healthcare
• For our comforts not to come at the cost of torture with the only benefit going to the uber wealthy
