    She’s not wrong though. Put AOC on the ballot and there will still be a lot of people not voting for the women. You hear it mostly from sexists men, but there are also some women I know that think that. Though these same women, and some men, are also ones that say “I don’t care about politics, it doesn’t affect me… why is everything so expensive.”

      According to post-election polls, Harris would’ve won the election if she had supported a ceasefire in Gaza, so she absolutely is wrong. I haven’t seen anything that substantiates the “it’s because she’s a woman” theory but liberals seem to insist on pushing it.

        They’re trying to distract from how establishment democrats refuse to raise taxes for the ruling class.

        And it’s working.

        • I wouldn’t be so sure about that. Swing states exist because there are a mix of People with different political opinions voting there. And that (unfortunately) is also true when it comes to identity politics.
