As for Kamala being less evil, this is true, yes. However, what’s the plan, long-term? Just keep voting for increasingly right-wing ghouls, as long as they aren’t as bad as the GOP, until the GOP inevitably wins again?
If you want democrats to be a certain way, vote for those democrats in primaries and local elections. You have to fix it from the bottom up and from within.
This is historically inaccurate, though. You can’t fix the party from within, because the DNC will always serve its donors. Voting for slightly more progressive democrats won’t actually change that fact.
