"This is the behavior of a crazy person.

Trump is a massive failure as president. He has allowed a genocidal monster to take over the foreign policy of the United States.

Trump has permitted Netanyahu to drag America to the threshold of war with Iran."

    You just want silence from the people who don’t like selling arms to murder Palestinians with.

    During the run up to the election, pro-genocide centrists (there has never been nor ever will be another kind) kept saying “you don’t have to agree with harris about everything in order to vote for her!” Guess that was a fucking lie to get chumps like me to vote for genocidal shit.

    Centrists scream that progressives are unreasonable for having standards. They holler “purity test!” any time they encounter criticism for anything they do, no matter how reprehensible. But when someone actually compromises their standards like centrists claim to want, they then scream at them for not applying one of the purity tests they claim to hate.

    You just want silence from your left while you move so far to the right that genocide is on the table where you want it.

      Here, how about this.

      Since trump won, do you think that the genocide in Palestine has gotten better, worse, or stayed the same?

        Worse. Naturally.

        Now you’re going to try to Socratic Method me into silence about the genocide you live for.

            The position of the anti-genocide left was held by too few people to make an impact, so we were ignored. Remember?

            Of course, this was before you lost and needed someone to blame.

                My position doesn’t matter, remember? So no. My position did not help trump get elected. No matter how much you disagree with my position that there should be living Palestinians.

                If you want to continue to argue that being opposed to your genocide caused trump’s election, then you can admit that your party should have listened to the anti-genocide left.

                  congrats on being purposefully ignorant.

                  I can only assume you are effectively a child - somewhere under the age of 25.

                    And when centrists run out of arguments for their reprehensible support for genocide, they start calling people children.

                    Concession accepted.
