The Democratic Socialists of America pulled its endorsement of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York this week, accusing the progressive congresswoman of being insufficiently supportive of the Palestinian cause and efforts to end the war in Gaza…

Her approach has increasingly strained her relationship with some of the left’s most strident critics of Israel. When she rallied last month in the Bronx with Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Jamaal Bowman, dozens of pro-Palestinian demonstrators angry over her endorsement of Mr. Biden chanted “You’re a fraud, A.O.C.”

      The only reason Biden is sending fewer weapons to Israel than Trump might, is because he is marginally responsive to the criticism you denounce people for.

      And the assumption that anyone who is critical at all of Biden’s support for the genocide must be a trumpist.

      Since you can’t defend your advocacy for genocide any other way, you have to spam false accusations against anyone who dares to insist that the lives of Gazans have value even when a Democrat is president.

        Oh, of course, you don’t SUPPORT a Trump presidency, you’re just interested in passively allowing it, and all the genocide that it entails. When we go in the camps, you’ll sit happy at home and muse on just how moral you’ve managed to be by fighting the Dem candidate at every turn.

        You’re almost indistinguishable from the fascists that support him. Certainly indistinguishable in your disregard for Palestinian and American minority lives.

        Since you can’t defend your advocacy for genocide any other way,

        Me: “Israeli is a genocidal apartheid state, we should remove all aid.”

        Clearly this is the position of a genocidal maniac.

        But tell me more about how purity testing AOC, one of the leftmost and pro-Palestinian politicians in our legislature, is a GOOD thing for Palestine, Actually.

          That is the position you have now called me a fascist twice for holding.

            lmao, and here I thought I was criticizing your view on how punishing Biden is more important than Palestinian lives, because punishing Biden makes you feel good, while fewer dead Palestinians don’t matter to you.

              You assumed that was my view. It is not.

              It’s pretty telling that you want Biden to step down for bein’ old, but lose your absolute shit when anyone says that he should stop supporting genocide.

                    lmao. So you don’t actually have anything and you’re talking out of your ass, because you hate it when it’s pointed out that more genocide is actually a bad thing. Cool. Good talk.
