Obama is already trying to blame black men saying they are chauvinistic. permalink fedilink source parent [–] draneceusrex@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago (1 child) And she'd drop 5 more points in Michigan if she started the "from river to the sea" shit from her base that she would lose, even with 100% of the state's Muslims supporting her. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] timewarp@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) Why is the only other logical choice in your mind that Kamala must either support genocide or spread antisemtic statements? How in the world do you see that as the only two logical options? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] draneceusrex@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago (1 child) I don't. I want us to cease funding offensive weapons, while still helping to fund the Iron Dome and to defend Isreal if they are attacked. That'd lose her 20 points in the polls because being nuanced would just piss off both sides, especially moderates. She would need real political capital to do so, and I hope that's her play once elected. It's obvious she can't show her cards on this till elected. Do I like the country's political balls being held by AIPAC? No. But it's the reality we live in. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] timewarp@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago A majority of Americans disapprove of Israeli action in Gaza: https://news.gallup.com/poll/642695/majority-disapprove-israeli-action-gaza.aspx I'm not sure where this narrative is coming from that it is an unpopular opinion to stand up to Netanyahu. permalink fedilink source parent
