They will just present anyone who isn’t pro-Israel as ineffectual
Pretty much all of the community efforts that they highlight as something to emulate are pretty far from specifically “pro-Israel.”
when the reality is that the DNC not being responsive to their base
Jesse what the fuck are you talking about? When did the Democrats enter into this at any point? I went back and searched the article for “DNC” and “Democrat” just to see if I had missed something.
It sure feels like you’re trying to make some point here that has nothing to do with the article, and nothing to do with my comment, for reasons of your own.
the majority of Americans (even Republicans) wanted a ceasefire (which is what the protesters were demanding)
Everyone “wants” a ceasefire. If Netanyahu doesn’t want to do one, what then? Stop weapons? What effect will that have on congress, or on the resulting campaign ads, or on the electorate?
More Americans have sympathies with Israel than with Palestine. According to polling. That’s a fucking travesty, and mostly the fault of our media, but a poll that says most people “support a ceasefire” in the abstract means absolutely nothing in terms of what’s a winning position politically or electorally.
If there was a “make ceasefire” button in the oval office, Biden and Harris would both push it. Trump, I don’t think, would.
I realize you’re going to have all kinds of ways of disagreeing with what I just said. I’m not planning to respond. You can of course do a counterpoint if you want. I’ve had this exact conversation too many times to want to do more than just respond one time with my general take on it.
Bruh, your comment that I responded to, was itself a response to a comment (the one you said was “perfectly balanced”). That is what I am addressing in my comment.
Also, what do you mean “When did the Democrats enter into this at any point?” YOU BROUGHT THEM UP IN YOUR COMMENT THAT I RESPONDED TO!
a pretty sensible assessment of a portion of what cost the Democrats the election
Oh, got it. Somehow it showed up for me and I thought it was a response to my other comment.
“Perfectly balanced” was not a compliment. Read the complete text of what I said in that paragraph again. I’m saying, more or less, that it’s perfectly engineered to create senseless conflict.
