As someone who fucking hates what Israel has become now, I say, take their money, but don’t do a damn thing they want
AIPAC supports genocide, my liberal buddy
Exactly.
"Don't accept endorsements from an increasingly unpopular foreign actor with blatant favoritism towards Republicans and genocide" is not a sabotage attempt.
See, that's where we disagree. I want Biden to reject AIPAC money and stop funding the IDF because I'm concerned that his current course is damaging and I want him to be less damaged so Trump doesn't win.
Or and hear me out here he could take their money and stop funding the IDF!
I'm fine with that outcome but I think it's highly unlikely that AIPAC will continue giving him money after that move.
Take all that you can then
But then AIPAC will stop donating
I'm sure you were worried about Bernie Bro's and before that, Naderites, and then before that Tsongas because how dare these leftists try to pull the party left. We must appease the undecided voters in the center, that's not pulling our party further right! Don't worry about the black, brown and leftist voters, they'll swallow whatever we offer as we're not the evil Republicans.
Your sentiment got us Trump in office once already. Listen to the voices in your own party. Explore the why of what they're saying. Don't just discount what they say outright. Vote for your fellow man, not just your party line, not just your single interest. Be better.
I voted bernie in the primaries but hilary in the general. I mean pull the party left is fine but im going with the more left party over the more right when it comes down to it.
Yes. Everyone who disagrees with you is a fascist. Very good.
The tribalism is strong with you.
Everyone who isn't with you, must be against you. There is no nuance or in-between.
Glad I'm not like you anymore.
Unfortunately, this is exactly how first-past-the-post elections work, and such elections are our current reality. Operating outside the parameters of reality will not get you any closer to your objectives.
