    Again, you are drawing far too much importance on the optics of condemnation and support, and no importance whatsoever on Material Realities and conditions. Is Harris moving in favor of ending all US support for Israel, putting a stop to the genocide? No, and she won’t, and as such we recontextualize her statements. She is very deliberately maintaining the Party Line.

      So why did you bring up her statements if they don’t matter?

      She is very deliberately maintaining the Party Line.

      Yes. And the party line is to disapprove of Israel but not directly oppose them.

        Finger wagging in public, handing guns and bombs in private, got it.

          I didn’t say I agreed with it, but that’s the line she’s walking.

            “Ah ok fair enough. I’d still say “support” is a strong word. Democrats want the genocide to end, but aren’t willing to directly oppose Israel. Republicans, by contrast, want even more genocide.”

            Now that we know the Democrats are actively pursuing genocide, do you walk back the part of this statement that the Dems want it to end?

              Nice how you ignored the part where I very specifically said that they are NOT pusuing genocide. Like that’s literally the opposite of what I said, damn you didn’t even moderate it or anything. Just full on lying to me about what I said. Neat.

                  Oh I’m sorry I didn’t realize that a) you were a mind reader, and b) Democrats are conveniently lying every single time they talk about Israel, which you conveniently know due to your mind reading powers.

                  Come on, man. That’s bullshit conspiracy talk. Democrats are calling for an end to the slaughter. Very publicly.

                    They give standing ovations to Netanyahu, send vast amounts of bombs, and decry protestors as antisemetic. You’re projecting onto the Zionist Dems.
