    Anyone on the left would have lost their job in a heartbeat.

    It’s time to stop holding those on the left to an entirely different, higher standard. It isn’t working and it only gives the fascists more power. This country is absolutely pathetic right now. Time to start putting some feet down and holding the line.

          They are not pro genocide. They just understand nuance. You can be pro-Israel and anti-genocide. It requires mental capacity to also understand we can’t just abandon our ally because they have a shitty leader(s).

          Should our allies abandon us because we elected Trump?

          Purity tests are dangerous.

          Do you really think Harris would be this hands off on Israel had she been elected?

                We do know, because they had a year to stop it and instead they illegally gave Israel every bomb and bullet they wanted, even diverting weapon shipments from our other (slightly less) fascist puppet during a literal invasion, even going around congress to keep the weapons flowing, using diplomatic pressure and literally bombing other countries who tried to stop it.

                    Yemen, as they try to fulfill their obligation under the convention on genocide by enforcing a blockade against any ships likely to be shipping goods to Israel.

            Gotta love how it’s only a purity test when it’s progressives asking for concessions from the center. When the center doesn’t want to compromise it’s never obstinacy, it’s merely “pragmatism” but the left is expected to concede nearly everything. Phooey!

            You can be pro-Israel and anti-genocide.

            That’s like saying you can be pro-nazi-germany and anti-nazi. There is no nuance in sending billions of dollars in weapons to a country actively committing genocide. That can only be taken to mean support for genocide.

            That requires a series of mental controtrions that no sane person is capable of.
