Summary
In an emotional monologue, John Oliver urged undecided and reluctant voters to support Kamala Harris, emphasizing her policies on Medicare, reproductive rights, and poverty reduction.
Addressing frustrations over the Biden administration’s Gaza policy, he acknowledged the struggle for many voters yet cited voices like Georgia State Rep. Ruwa Romman, who supports Harris despite reservations.
Oliver warned of the lasting consequences of a second Trump term, including potential Supreme Court shifts.
Oliver said voting for Harris would mean the world could laugh at this past week’s photo of an orange, gaping-mouthed Trump in a fluorescent vest and allow Americans to carry on with life without worrying about what he might do next.
experience has taught me that you can’t change people’s minds on anything and i don’t think you can accomplish anything in this system unless you have enough money or sufficient collectivism to affect change.
i’m old enough and am member to enough vulnerable minority groups to have experienced a few forms of enshitification and i’m sharing my experience because i can see it happening to both the lemmyverse and this country; if there’s anything that can be accomplished by my efforts it would be the this.
