There's No "Progressive Foreign Policy" Without a Reckoning for Dems Who Supported Genocide - Divisions by zero

>Progressives acknowledging the fact of genocide is a good first step, and it’s useful that Ocasio-Cortez and others have done so — “I think [unconditional aid to Israel] enabled a genocide in Gaza,” she said in Munich — but it is not in and of itself sufficient. Before anyone in the party can move on to selling a post-Biden vision of human-rights-first foreign policy, they must address what accountability for the war criminals in the Biden administration — those who aided, armed, and funded genocide — should look like.

Come mid-terms I’m going to proudly vote democrat everywhere I can so hopefully we can get some control of the country again.

Bingo.

I’ll think about Palestine after my country stops being run by actual fascists and Americans stop being executed in the street and our Constitutional rights stop being violated on a daily basis.

And, coincidentally, by voting Democrat, I am doing the most beneficial thing I can for Palestine because THERE ARE NO VIABLE THIRD PARTIES IN THE UNITED STATES.

Suppose, in 10 years, your choice for president is between a democrat who openly expresses interest in murdering six million Jewish people, and a Republican who openly expresses interest in murdering seven million Jewish people.

Will you still be an unwavering Democrat?

If a communist killed between nine and thirty million of their own citizens would you still support communism?
If Taco Bell reintroduced the shredded chicken burrito, how many angels could dance on the head of a pin?
Theoretically infinite, but in practice three or four.
