I have criticized her, possibly elsewhere on the internet if not here. Hell, I didn't want her until after Biden dropped out and she stepped up to actually push back effectively against Republican fascism.

But if you just want me to say one bad thing about her so you don't think I'm some kind of fan boy, Harris was wrong recently in saying there is no reason to burn the US flag. That was very nationalistic of her.

If that isn't good enough, have you passed your own purity test and criticized her the right way on the internet?

Side note: I'm not a registered Democrat because I dislike political parties as a concept and the Dems suck because overall they are moderates who perpetuate shitty policies by over funding police, drag their feet on ending the war on drugs, took way to long to support LGBTQ+ rights (and still only do the bare minimum), plus all of the other stupid shit they do. But I am interested in them winning elections to keep out the way worse Republicans who are actively trying to turn the country into a fascist hellhole instead of fascism light like it is now.

It's not s purity test, anytime I post even mild critisism of Harris I get all sorts of nasty response including insinuating that I support orange cancer man, that I'm a Russian bot, & that they don't give a fuck about my concerns(like criminal justice reform or policies that are transphobic)
