During negotiations with the DNC and the Harris campaign, we were repeatedly told by interlocutors that Harris couldn’t meet any of our basic requests (a policy shift from Biden, a Palestinian speaker at the DNC, a statement distinguishing herself from Trump on Israel, or even a meeting with Michigan families who lost loved ones to Israeli bombs) because of AIPAC-aligned politicians like Fetterman, who might take to TV, rile up suburban white and Jewish voters, and fracture the party’s coalition in a swing state.

That political calculus alienated a key voting bloc, although likely not large enough to have shifted the ultimate election outcomes, that should be part of a durable Democratic majority. But few will ever be held accountable for that choice.

A Fetterman staffer condemning Uncommitted for not advocating for Palestinians ‘the right way’ is like an arsonist scolding the fire department for using the wrong hose.

    The fact that you read “she called for a two state solution” as anything but her endorsing genocide makes you appear to be a fucking moron.

    This assessment of you is only reinforced by one of your links literally saying “She dodged the question on Palestinian deaths” in its URL

    Of course I don’t really think you’re an idiot. I think you’re a nazi. You don’t give a flying fuck except for the fact that refusing to back down on this subject cost you the election. And because you’re nothing but a fucking nazi, you will literally say fucking anything. You will insist that the person who refused to budge an inch from Biden’s “zero conditions for unlimited support” position was actually the opposite. You’re only upset that people got upset at you. You are a nazi.
