      You’d actually be surprised but that’s not the point. The issue is that guy’s take is full of shit, Harris’ platform did specifically address the affordability crisis but a shocking number of Americans are stupid enough to actually believe democrats and republicans are the same in spite of all evidence and so we get dipass takes like that.

        This is the thing that makes me more depressed about the future of America than anything else.

        This is not some ambiguous thing. There are MOUNTAIN RANGES, SOLAR SYSTEMS, GALACTIC REGIONS of evidence proving beyond any shadow of a doubt that both parties are not the same, but a terrifying number of Americans still believe it. Because they can’t be bothered to sit down and do their homework.

        These people do not exist in reality and I’m not sure what can bring them back to it.

        Yeah I mentioned that in another reply to this same guy - she actually had policies to help these specific problems. I don’t remember exactly what they were but there was one to help first time home buyers and another to help with grocery store prices.
