    Honey your options are genocide or passive nonconfrontational opposition to genocide.

    If you cared at all about Pallestine you would want to remove every Republican first and foremost.

      Psst. They don’t actually care about Palestine or they would have voted for the best possible option for Palestine.

      It was always about stroking their moral superiority boner.

      Sorry babe, you’re a lost cause. You keep moving around from argument to argument to just avoid facing the reality: the democratic party, in its current form, offers nothing of substance that resonates with voters. If you’re right, and theyre bring ‘misled’, then that just solidifies how awfully impotent Dem messaging is.

          You picked a strawman by saying that our only options against Palestinian genocide are active participation or finger-wagging, yet mentioned nothing regarding Democratic representatives voting against impeachment or the need for top-to-bottom restructuring of our healthcare system rather than reforming a broken model. Youre only consistent line of argument is that all Republicans are bad.

          However, I take great pause at the fact that you are so quick to endorse the elimination of a party that represents a sizeable portion of the population (as awful as they might be) and believe the solution is the establishment of a one-party system with a political party that you seemingly find to be infallible.

          My takeaway is that what you really want is to punish Republican voters, yet you fail to see just how much you resemble them.

            The argument of “all Republicans are bad” is corroborated by the evidence. Your argument of “Everything short of utopia is hell and there is no point in doing anything unless it brings an utopia, and even then it’s pointless” is corroborated by shit out of your ass.

              My argument is for improving broken systems, speaking the truth, and holding power accountable. If we’re not striving to make society better and more inclusive, than what are we doing?

                It’s what you’re saying, but it’s not your argument. Your argument is to be ineffective and doing nothing, while pretending that you hold moral high ground by doing so. The “firebombing wallmart” is overused metaphor, but it still holds.

                  I’m simply engaging with other individuals over topics I feel strongly about. That’s what forums are for.

                  I’ve made my argument clear throughout the thread: I believe the Democratic Party has lost its way and needs new leadership and a truly progressive platform.

                  You came in with nothing but resentment and simple-minded insults because you’re triggered, bored, and have nothing of value to add. Whatever you think of me is simply something I can’t be bothered to care about.
