  • That’s what they are doing. Promising unconditional support for Harris despite her pushing for continued genocide has no leverage.

    No. They are telling their constituent to vote third party as early voting is getting underway. They are literally setting fire to their political capital while there’s still six weeks to figure out something that both sides can be happy with.

    Israel is a vassal state that depends on the support of the US.

    I mean, if you truly believe that then I guess the whole system is compromised and you gotta burn it all down. But it’s not something that has actual salience outside conspiratorial circles and the people that amplify them for their own ends.


  • Seems like you’re hinting that they should just accept that genocide is a fact of life for Muslims, instead of pressuring to change it.

    Hell no. But this is politics. Taking your ball and going home gets you nothing.

    If you have the power to swing Michigan you are the most important voters in the election that don’t live in Pennsylvania. You can leverage that into a deal.

    But you are going to have to be clear that you’re asking. “Stop the genocide” isn’t it. She’s not the one killing people. The only person that can actually stop the genocide is Bibi. He’s not on the ballot in November. You have to make an ask and it’s gotta be clear and it’s got to be something that you can realistically get.

    Also, the other guys need to be convinced you can hold up your own side of the deal. Can you deliver Michigan? Or are you just posturing?

    The way I see it, this statement gets no progress on the first, and actively harms the second. After this statement, an endorsement from them would be worse than useless. If these organizations can’t deliver Michigan, the campaign will just roll the dice with the “moderates”.

    This statement is political malpractice.

    Easy to say when you aren’t the target.

    What the actual fuck dude.
