Something that I realized about the fediverse is that you seem to be able to criticize the USA as a whole, but if you criticize the Democrats you get downvoted. Democrats suck they are not sacred cows (lemmy.ml)

Push the party left and then vote for them.

That's what many leftists tried to do: push Democrats at least left enough to stop actively committing genocide before they'd vote for them. The Democrats refused to budge.

I know, Bernie should have won, AOC should be a party leader.

But when the choice came down, fall in line against fascism. Its not hard.

Opposing genocide is a keystone of opposing fascism.

Ok so your choices are between notnopposing genocide or notnopposing genocide even more. For instance would the man commiyting the genocide send you a gold plated pager to commemorate their terrorism? Thats a good litmus test. Would your leader post AI gen pics of themselves and the genocide leader on a beach in the ethnically cleanser area?

Thisnisnt apples to apples to Gaza/Ukraine will rap te benefits of the lazy american voter.

Typical blueMAGA: cares more about symbolic bullshit than actual effect on human lives.

Blame everyone but your shitty wing of the party that was so in love with netanyahu that they would rather support genocide and lose.

I voted for Harris. Now lecture me like I'm a trumpist, since you have no argument for the genocide you've always lived for.

They're not my party and I am totally not in support of the genocide or ethnic cleansing. I would sooner see a demilitarised Israel returning to their originally agreed borders.
