Why would he even say this? Usually there’s a pretty clear motivation to his lies but this one just seems suicidal

In another universe, Meta is being sued for having leeched without seeding

Because they didn’t cut ties with Israel?

Because - far from ‘cutting ties’ with Israel - they actively shielded them from international accountability and continued supplying them with the bombs they were (and are still) dropping on Palestinian children

Biden tells Netanyahu it’s time to end Gaza war

This one is kinda funny to me because people interpret trump saying nearly the same words is evidence of his genocidal intent.

But none of those ‘statements of disapproval’ conveys the severity of their literal fucking war crimes and genocide, which would be a minimum (I would think) to convince a skeptical zionist voter that maybe some intervention is justified. Not to mention that Harris repeatedly refused to commit to withholding lethal aid every time she was asked during her candidacy.

They could have defended the lives of Palestinians and acknowledged that the genocide was happening.

It was Biden’s press secretary and SOS who got up on a podium everyday and assured the press and those “other voters” that Israel wasn’t doing anything wrong. They drew that line themselves, not anyone who was protesting the genocide.

I find arguments that the non-voters shouldn’t be blamed […] idiotic

Please elaborate what the party leadership could’ve done differently to not alienate the other voting blocks

These two sentences are in contradiction

Here, see if you can spot the double standard:

“The [voters] suck… You know who else sucks? [the DNC] who didn’t stand up against [Israel]. Those people are grown ass adults who actively helped a fascist by doing nothing but bitch.”

enabling the greater evil is a failing of the people who voted against their interests

Democrats enabled the greater evil by ignoring the interests of the constituencies they needed to win. It doesn’t matter if the lesser evil is objectively the right choice - they still need millions of people to go to the booth and make that choice, and nobody has more control over voter enthusiasm than the democrats themselves.

This is nobody’s fault but the democrats.

I’m not assuming you’re pro-dems, I’m pointing out that their loss is entirely attributable to their own political mis-calculation on top of their efforts to gaslight Americans about their roll and knowledge of the crimes being committed on their behalf.

Blaming voters for reacting to the Democrats’ policy decisions - including the moderates they alienated - is simply yet another attempt to obscure the facts that lead us to this moment.

People here still blaming this on minority voters are deafeningly silent on party leadership holding the coalition hostage over AIPAC funding

Stop directing your anger at people being robbed of basic representation instead of political actors who are gleefully accepting blood money to turn against their constituents and a blind eye to genocide

Oh my god.

Let’s run another old white moderate
