    Democracy is about compromise. By refusing to compromise you’re ceding power to the worst option.

      Why is the compromise always to be a good little voter and vote for us regardless of the heinous shit we’re up to cuz the other option is Hitler wins? That isn’t a compromise. A compromise is when both sides give up something they want. What have the dems given up? Said that Israel has maybe gone a little bit too far? Whoopty-fucking-do.

      I’m tired of compromising with people who won’t compromise. We just lurch to the right over and over whenever there’s a fight. They never worry about compromising with me ever.

        That’s democracy. When a large portion of voters want fascism, you have to compromise with fascists.

      Compromise requires both sides. And supplying a genocide isn’t compromise.

        “Not genocide” is not an option.

              Voting uncommitted. Showing force. If Biden wants votes, he needs to not commit genocide.

              I’ll still vote for him most likely, even if he is a disgusting warmonger, because I know Trump is worse. However, I want him to see the magnitude of hatred the Americans he thought he could rely on for votes have for him and his genocidal antics.

                Now he’s caught between your current hatred and the potential hatred of moderate Dems if he stops supporting Israel. And moderate Dems are more numerous and more consistent voters.

          Not with that attitude it’s not. It is possible. There is a world in which Biden proves he can still be pressured into doing the right thing.
