I think the Democrats are between a rock and a hard place. It sounds crazy to say, but Biden has been the best president of my lifetime (a millennial). Obviously, his achievements have been overshadowed by his unwavering support for Israel's bombing camping, but his domestic policies, his appointments atop the Dept of Ed and, perhaps most importantly, the FTC, and his withdrawal from Afghanistan are all top tier moves even with their flaws. Honestly, it's a low bar to top, but credit where credit is due.
Despite all that, though, I don't think he would've beat Trump, and he should've said he'd be a one-term president. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess.
That said, I think Kamala is very likely a worse candidate than Biden, as is probably any of the umber of other corporate Democrats that have a realistic chance of getting the nomination. It's going to be *fun* to watch the Dems nominate someone else in fear of Biden losing to Trump, only to probably still lose anyway.
I feel for you; we have a long way to go to get to real justice and real freedom for everyone. But corporate and billionaire influence (not just money) sit athwart the whole process of government. The difference between the two parties is that the Dems want to change things, but without offending the donor class; the GOP wants total, no-holds-barred oligarchy. Only our voting stands in the way.
Just remember when Biden took office, you could raise a family and buy a home on one middle class income. It's super nice that Biden managed to mitigate some of the damage he's been doing for the last 50 years, though.

It's sad that the bar is so low that biden could be considered the best president since FDR.
Every single one of our presidents are war criminals, so I kinda get it, but man does america suck.

There is NOTHING "the people" avoid quite so much as the truth!
