President Joe Biden’s support for the Israeli military offensive in Gaza mixed with student anger over police crackdowns on anti-war campus protests are complicating the work of Democratic youth groups trying to engage classmates and other Generation Z voters ahead of this year’s election.
That is correct. The options at the polls for Palestinians are bad or worse. Better is just not on the table. All the more reason that protests should happen elsewhere.
Okay, then I guess those votes aren’t on the table either. Democrats have a tough choice to make: do they want to support genocide and lose votes or do they want to stop supporting genocide and gain votes? Why are voters being attacked for exercising their democratic right to vote (or not vote) as they please, but politicians whose entire job is to gain votes are excused for not appealing to voters?
You’re not punishing Democrats by abstaining. You’re punishing yourself to make a point that won’t be conveyed. I’m also not attacking. I’m making sure you are fully aware of the consequences you’re accepting by making whatever choice you choose to make. You do you. Just don’t pretend you don’t know what’s going to happen if you abstain.
The point is getting conveyed a hell of a lot more than by guaranteeing votes to democrats for their “greater boogeyman” strategy. If democrats are hellbent on keeping things terrible, then voting for them isn’t really a solution. My plan is to vote democrats to give them as much of a majority as possible so they can have as little excuse as possible for when they don’t do what they claim they want to do, but I can understand people who don’t want to vote for them.
I’m not judging people who don’t want to vote. I’m commenting to ensure they have the knowledge that abstaining will lead to another Trump presidency, and what the last one looked like under the noise shield of his antics. If he’s their second choice, then they should absolutely abstain or vote third-party.
Everyone is well aware of this, democrats make sure to tell everyone this because it’s their only strategy instead of listening to voters and actually improving things.
I agree. Protest this abomination. Just don’t dilute yourself into thinking that allowing Trump back into the White House would improve the chances of Palestinian survival.
You make it seem like they’re the same on Israel. We both know they’re not.
Despite your contempt for Biden, he has been far better than Trump in every other area of running this nation, unless you’re a rich white industrialist.

You’re right. There’s been no difference between them.
Where did I say there’s no difference between them?
Never Again meant Never Again
Genocide is an abomination. No human can ever support it.
If you believe in God then your soul is in incredible danger by accepting such a status of things. Which is a concern for many of us.
I agree. Protest this abomination. Just don’t dilute yourself into thinking that allowing Trump back into the White House would improve the chances of Palestinian survival.

Congratulations.
For what? Honest awareness of the options of US support of Israel?
For your party keeping better off the ballot.
Again.
I’m not a Democrat. I’m ferociously anti-Trump.
I didn’t say which party was yours. Though I agree that Democrats are one of the two parties that have kept better off the ballot.
Absolutely. Things would be very different right now had the DNC not favored Hillary in 2016.

Agreed. But as you gloated earlier, better isn’t on the ballot.
And with the two party pro-genocide hegemony, it never will be. So drink up, you got the only thing you want.
You make it seem like they’re the same on Israel. We both know they’re not.
