      Because the Biden administration is the one committing genocide in Gaza. Not the Trump administration.

      Is that too hard for you to understand?

        Is that too hard for you to understand?

        If you’re going to be a condescending, the least you could do is actually be accurate.

        Because the Biden administration is the one committing genocide in Gaza. Not the Trump administration.

        Neither Biden, his administration, nor American troops in general are actively engaged in combat operations in Gaza. Sure, we’re supplying arms, and yes, we can be critical of biden.

        By all means. I certainly am and have been.

        However, Harris doesn’t set his administration’s policy agenda. that’s why it’s the “Biden Administration” and not “the Harris Administration”, right?

        Further, is it really that hard to grasp that in our stupid electoral system the choice is between either Trump or Harris, and that there are no circumstances at all in which Trump would be more beneficial to Palestinians?

          Voting third-party is also a choice.

                Pretty stupid reason to drop Harris when the other team would be far worse on that one issue.

                Unless, of course, the real motivation is as a spoiler candidate.

                So is there an “Abandon Trump” campaign? Because trump is universally worse on Gaza.

                  You’re honestly just driving me away from Harris.

                    I feel same way. This crowd and their bullying attitude has definitely reinforced my choice to vote third party. I’m more proud of it every day that I read replies here.

      Oh, they have been very critical of Trump as well. Maybe that doesn’t show up so much in this article, but they definitely do NOT like Trump.

      Even tho this community would like you to believe they are all trying to get Trump elected. lol

        “The Democratic Party has not only been complicit, but it has been an investor, a collaborator, in genocide and in the slaughter and displacement of thousands of Palestinians – not only in the last 10 months, but in the last 76 years,” the Party for Socialism and Liberation’s Claudia De la Cruz told reporters on Monday.

        “We need to sit and hold that truth as people in the belly of empire, and we must understand our historic responsibility to do something for the sake of humanity.”

        The news conference, organized by the Abandon Harris (formerly [Abandon Biden])campaign, took place as Democratic delegates and leaders come together to celebrate the nomination of Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

        *emphasis mine

        Oh yes. That’s quite clear.

            Did I say there was a lie?

            Is there a an “abandon Trump campaign”, though? I’m not insinuating that Biden isn’t gargling Netanyahu’s balls. I’m insinuating that Stein is a willing spoiler candidate.

              You know, Democrats should try appealing to anti-war voters instead of accusing them of having hidden agendas.

              I think Democrats forget this, but the Democrats need the votes of independent voters to win. Appeal to them. Don’t insult them.

              I remember when Hillary accused Tulsi Gabbard (who built her brand on being anti-war) of being a Russian agent. How well did that go for Hillary?

              Even if Gabbard was a Russian agent, it does not inspire anti-war voters when you say that the only anti-war candidates are foreign agents. (I’d be like “well I guess I’m voting for the Russian then”.)

                Of course, people in this sub don’t believe that independent voters exist. You’re either “vote blue no matter who”, or you’re a Russian agent.
