Any evidence that it was actually progressives staying home out of a protest vote that cost Kamala the election?

I don't care whether it was the straw that broke the camel's back or not.

They didn't know whether they were making the difference or not when they cast, or didn't cast, their vote. They're fucking morons that knowingly jeopardized our democracy. Our rights. They deserve to be chastised.

You don't care because you just want your five minutes of hate. The point is that the progressives you're hating on did exactly what you claim you wanted them to do. They held their nose and voted for Harris. You're just shit looking to shit on progressives.

As usual "vote blue no matter who" is a one-way street. Progressives will vote for moderates, but moderates will turn around and blame their failures on the very progressives who voted for them. It's despicable. You're no different than MAGA. You just wear a different color shirt.
