    that would be good also.

    It’s good you finally learned about the Palestinian genocide, but threatening to let conservatives further mangle the country when you have a progressive alternative is selfish and incredibly narrow-minded.

    stopping the US from sending weapons will not stop Israel.

    they are a third party with plenty of international support and funding that is under no obligation to listen to the US.

    The US can stop sending bombs tomorrow, they could have stopped sending bombs months ago and Israel’s military would atill be fully prepared to continue this war as long as they want to, regardless.

    you are shooting yourself and everybody around you in the foot for rhe privilege of eating night soil by voting against harris.

      And how exactly is not voting doing that when…

      the democrats are already winning the votes of young and decided voters

      Either the Democrats are comfortably winning (in which case we can vote with our conscience), or they’re not (in which case vocal opposition to genocide might encourage them to change policies to garner our vote).

      The alternative is that nothing will get them to change policies because they’re not interested in our vote. In which case the whole “turn up and the Democrats will move left” theory is nonsense.

      I think supporting/funding genocide shouldn’t be democratic party policy, it would suit more on far-right. But reality is different. Even after thousands of posts, emails to representatives, cases in court, protests in campuses and rallies. Democrats are eager to support/fund a genocide.

      Democratic party has become a far-right party.
