    The problem I have, is that comments like yours saying that Harris is 100% pro genocide

    I never said that, but you have no issue at all with lying, do you? Just when you take personal offense on behalf of genocide supporters.

    I don’t think there is anything wrong with being critical of the situation

    Coulda fooled me.

    I do believe that at the root of of these statements, the intent is to pressure the admin for change, but I think that it has the adverse effect due to the way the argument is presented, especially because currently as VP, she doesn’t have the power to change anything anyway.

    That doesn’t mean there can’t be daylight between her and Biden. She’s not the Secretary of State. She can differ from the president on foreign policy.

    After the election is complete and if she wins, go to town on the hard protesting

    You’ll find some other excuse to demand silence about genocide at that point.

    If you really thing genocide is wrong, you should say something without prompting instead of demanding silence on the flimsy notion that griping about genocide on a tiny fledgling platform is somehow going to make all the dug-in pro-genocide centrists here suddenly drop their support for Harris.

      It isn’t just that libs will find another reason to complain about protests after the election, it’s that libs won’t care anymore because they already got what they wanted.

      You protest during election cycles because that’s when policy is being negotiated. You don’t go on a labor strike after the union has signed the contract, you go on strike to get them to agree to concessions while the contract is being negotiated
