If Harris is advised by her wealthy donors to shun the left and drop her more progressive positions in favor of a ‘move to the center,’” Moore, who grew up in the suburbs of the Midwestern city he made famous in his debut documentary *Roger & Me (but has since moved away), *writes in a new Substack post, it could “reduce or depress the vote.”

There. That's it. Fcking clickbait titles.

I assumed it said "movie" and I was searching for the title

It already happened. She done did a Hilary. They don't fucking learn.

She basically handed the presidency to Trump on a silver plater by abandoning the left.

Praising war criminal Dick Cheney and accepting the endorsement of many extremist right wing political figures (this is everywhere I'm not posting a source on this)
No progress on halting shipments to Israel as they plunge us further to World War 3
Withdrew support for M4A (I guess that's pretty old, happened during the 2020 primary, but still frustrating for leftists)
Pledges hundreds of millions of dollars to secure the southern border, including building Trump's wall
Won't ban fracking

Look I hope she gets more votes than Trump, but she continues to make zero concessions to the left while there's a gigantic Uncommitted movement in Michigan, a crucial swing state.

Democrats would rather lose to a fascist than allow someone pushing for true change get power (see what they did to Bernie in the primaries, and how they're suing to keep third parties off the ballot while not pushing a ranked choice voting option at all).

Or you could try reading my comment history?

why should he have to do the research to prove you're acting in good faith? I mean yeah, he was a bit antagnostic, but you literally came in saying that Harris abandoned the left with absolutely nothing to say to back yourself up.

Also the one other comment you made in this thread was to intimate that Harris was making pornographic films. It's...not a good look.

What? Do you know who Michael Moore is? He's a film maker. He makes DOCUMENTARY films. You're projecting your own hyper-sexuality.
