“We recognize that, in the next four years, our decision may cause us to have an even more difficult time. But we believe that this will give us a chance to recalibrate, and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not.”

That’s gotta be one of the strangest reasonings I’ve heard in a while.

    Still better then genocide. You and your fellow cohorts would be in an uproar if the exact same thing was happening if a republican was in the WH. You don’t care about people’s lives, only the one doing the killing

      If supporting Israel is supporting genocide than Trump supports that too. Trump is one of Netanyahus strongest supporters, LOL.

        I said nothing about supporting trump, I said oppose Biden. But Biden does happen to be the largest recipient of JStreet money

          Opposing Biden is supporting Trump unfortunately in our two party system. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good

              How do you plan to convince people to do that? What strategy would you employ?

              Talk is cheap. Idealogues like you are glib to demand change, but y’all never have a viable plan to get there.

                We do have viable plans, but have to fight fucking shitlibs 24/7 that are convinced it’s their way or nothing. Your way doesn’t work

                  Is your way any different though? It seems you’re just as convinced it’s your way or nothing. If the tables were turned, and a bunch of liberals were refusing to vote for a communist incumbent unless they had more neoliberal policy, would you agree that the communists should compromise?

                  Everyone’s self assured of their path being the righteous one. What actually makes them different though is if you’re willing to do the same if the tables are turned. If you aren’t, then why should you expect the same of your opponent?

                    There should be NO compromise with anything or any party that prefers capital over people. Democrats claim to support marginalized communities then vote for politicians that enact laws against the marginalized. Which translates to you dont have our back other than for social clout. I trust someone that hates me to my face over someone that does it covertly

      “Me and my cohorts” you seem to know who I am. Why dont you tell me about myself, and I can explain a “false dichotomy” to you.

      You’re making it obvious that you have a double-standard and are simply projecting that.

          There’s no double standard, your comment makes the assumption I advocate for a Republican

          I made no such assumption. But considering how quickly you jumped on this despite me not saying, it’s clear how much you were intentionally baiting it.

          Projecting and not arguing in good faith. Probably should be obvious from your name that you’re just a bad troll.
