Damn, I can't wait to hear about all the things you're doing to try and actually end the abominable genocide against the people of Palestine.

Pretending Trump's presidency wouldn't be objectively worse for all the causes leftists care about, even the ones (like Palestine) Harris isn't going to do shit about isn't taking a principled stand. It's hiding from what little power you have in the electoral system in order to keep whatever happens next off your conscience. And frankly, the Palestinians don't care about your conscience any more than the Hispanic Americans or trans kids.

Maybe do something between voting. Voting is the bare minimum. Then you fight the years between.
I don't need to preach to the choir about ultra conservatives being ultra conservatives, that's a given
as I already said in another comment: If your definition of "left leaning" is "genocidal neoliberal war criminal", that's on you
