but also still terrible and basically offered trump-lite policies.

Harris didn't say she was going to deport millions of working Americans for being the wrong colored skin.

Harris didn't say she was going to weaponize the entire political machine against people who passed some off-hand sleight that offended her.

Harris didn't say she was going to actively dehumanize and torture the entire LGBT community for existing.

Harris didn't say she was going to actively remove every protection from working class people.

She said none of this. The other guy said it multiple times, and now he's following through on it! Big fucking shocker!

Seriously. The "both sides" arugment has been so tired out for so long that you cannot legitimately believe that it means anything. Believing the silence said by one side and giving that more weight than what is being actively repeated by the other side is short sighted at best, and intentionally malicious at worst. We're on the worst side now, and I will treat people who repeat it as the worst side.

You do understand that by saying she would be less awful than trump and trump-lite that I am not saying she would be the same as him? That implies that Trump is worse?
