    If democrats as a group broadly endorse the genocide of Palestinians, how can they still be taken seriously regarding issues like abortion (rights ended during Dem presidency) and BLM?

      how can they still be taken seriously regarding issues like abortion (rights ended during Dem presidency)

      By the supreme court not the president.

      The 3 Dissenting votes were exclusively from Democrat appointed judges from the Clinton and Obama years.

      BLM?

      Republicans are just objectively more hostile to BLM than Democrats.

        Why does this meme depict the saving of abortion rights by voting for Harris (again)?

        What “objective” measure implies Democrats are less hostile to BLM?

        Black Americans somehow live with equality, let alone dignity, in Democrat-run cities?

        Blacks should see a widespread endorsement of genocide and conclude BLM is legitimate concern for establishment Democrats?

          Why does this meme depict the saving of abortion rights by voting for Harris (again)?

          Because the more Democratic presidental terms there are the more nominees can reach the supreme court to overturn. Roe was overturned precisely because Republicans played that game of getting more judges on the bench

          Additionally more dems in power increases the chance of a legislative victory on the issue

          What “objective” measure implies Democrats are less hostile to BLM?

          Listen to any Republican ever talk about BLM or make policy against “critical race theory” or “woke”.

            Why ignore this?
