Jon Stewart examines the choice undecided voters are facing in the 2024 election: Kamala Harris, who has an impressive résumé and specific policy plans, versus Donald Trump, whose vision, consistency on issues, anti-labor ethos, and militaristic posturing are at odds with the caricature his followers have created for him.

What do you do in a democracy where say, for the sake of the argument, exactly 50% of your population is racist?

As in, 50% of your population believes skin color does not matter, the other 50% believe if you're darker than a certain shade, your brain is that of a baboon, and as an unsuitable human being you should be kept outside of the country borders.

What do you do?

Now, you're in the same situation, but the split is 60/40. Will you use your majority power to exterminate the other 40?

So far all you do is gather on some corner of the internet and cry in each others shoulder. Every fuckin day. On every fuckin sub.

This platform was created as some "Fediverse". Something big and all-encompassing. Flying above individual organizations, nations, languages, etc. But all it is atm is an emotional support corner for the non-racist americans.
