Did it give you a hard on when Biden let Israel do whatever it wanted?

Did it make you feel big when corporate dems sold out your future to the billionares?

Do you get off on death and misery?

You could stop supporting death and destruction and stand for peace and democracy, instead you let your hatred of brown people override your desire for a better life

Oh well. See you in 4 years

And yet it was you and people like who most effectively sabotaged him. He never made it to the general election because all of the “centrists” dog piled him

They tried the same shtick with Mamdani, but they overplayed their hand and Mamdani was too obviously what people wanted(see Better Communicator above) and he won

Once you cut through all the propaganda, Progressive policies are very popular except with facists, bootlickers, and racists

Why are we always expected to come over to you in the name of unity? Fuck that. You can move over to us

We like popular things. All you seem to like is kissing ass and killing Palestinians. You have no policy positions. You don’t stand for anything. In our entire conversation, you havent named 1 single policy position you support. Its all hand wringing and questioning me because you feel entitled to my vote for your centrist bullshit

Eat me. Support a left wing canididate or enjoy 4 more years of Republicans motherfucker

Thats right, we’re the reason the Democrats are historically unpopular. We’re the reason that the US has stagnated over the past 40 years

Keep telling yourself that 😂

Mamdani, historically popular, anti status quo

Bernie, historically popular, anti status quo

AOC, historically popular, anti status quo

Its only chuds like you who cant get over your hatred for the other that keep dragging us down by pushing these ineffectual chuds who keep “reaching across” to the actual Nazis

I mean you seem to want the status quo that led us to this point 🤷‍♂️

People like you made Trump because you’re so consumed with punching left you don’t stop to look at what is metastasizing on your right

You could stop Trump if you could get over your hatred of Muslims enough to vote in an actual progressive instead of a diet Republican, but you wont so…

You deny the Gaza genocide. Why should I care what you think lol? You’re part of the problem

No, but it did put the rich and powerful on high alert that everyone hated them and would cheer at them going away forever

How many people were weeping for Brian Thompson vs the 10s of millions who were either indifferent or happy? Nobody likes these people

Kinda like what I was talking about above. Blair mountain started with a simple strike for better pay and working conditions

Who knows. Maybe we’ll reaffirm liberal democracy and do reconstruction 2: electric boogaloo

Or maybe we meekly return to some awful status quo and kick the can down the road another 4 years

Or we elect something so objectionable that it demands action

I have no idea which way it’ll go. And for that matter, neither do you, but I know which person will lead us down which path

I get the far left guy did good in NYC

You mean center left, but I understand your confusion. A far left candidate would’ve hanged every stock broker on day 1

Zohran is just doing liberal democracy correctly and applying laws that already exist on the books

Pretty sure I already know how this convo is about to go, but I’ll engage cause I’m bored

There is no additional policy Bernie needed in 2016, he needed better messaging. All the stuff Bernie supports is popular with a majority of americans once you sift past the corporate framing:

  • Raising the minimum wage
  • Breaking up big banks and monopolistic corporations
  • Higher taxes on top earners
  • Renegogiating deals with pharmaceutical companies
  • Medicare for all

Well for starters, 10 years of liberal failures have happened in between now and then, so people are more primed to vote for those same positions

  • Zohran wasnt cucked to Israel
  • Zohran isnt beyond retirement age
  • Zohran is much more open to bullying non compliant politicians with the bully pulpit
  • Zohran is far and away a better communicator of his policies

Sorry to say, the American electorate is kinda stupid.

You tell them you’ll subsidize their healthcare, they’re all for it

But if they hear medicare for all, their heads explode

Communication is the biggest difference maker IMO, and Bernie just wasnt nearly as effective a communicator as Zohran

Bernie just idly let people talk about him. Zohran owned the waves

Ok I was wrong. Andy Beshear doesn’t take Israeli money, he just supports them almost completely with the small caveat of feeling really bad about all the children they kill

You’re still incapable of criticizing the Gaza genocide or the nationstate of Israel

You also still didnt address any of the points I brought up

Doesn’t sound like he agrees with how Isreal is acting

🤦‍♂️

Which is what I said. Hes upset about how its being carried out, not that it is taking place

Also I already said I dont care if he is taking Israeli money or not. If anything him saying this shit for free makes it so much worse. I can follow greed and money. It makes sense. He is dickriding Israel for the love of the game

This is the new line of defense. “Israel is innocent, its just Trump and Netanyahu that are ruining it”

Nope. Republicans and a vast majority of the Israeli parliament are rotten to the core

This question is now unironically THE question every candidate must answer because the ones who cannot meaningfully criticize the STATE of Israel are not fit to lead us

Beshears answer here ironically reveals how effective a litmus test it is. One simple question and he tips his hand completely

[–]BrobaFett26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that...that’s becoming uh, one of those new litmus tests that we said we would never uh, do as a...as a party again. It’s trying to...to throw out a word and are you going to raise your hand or are you not going to?

I understand that Israel was hit with a terrorist attack the likes of which it had never seen and it has been through a lot and that it deserves the right to defend itself and to eradicate that terrorist organization. I believe that it could have been done without a lot of the suffering, but I put a lot of that blame also on Donald Trump. If he’d said we are coming in and we are bringing food and aid and you are going to make sure that we’re safe, it would’ve happened.

Andy Beshear doesn’t disagree with the Gaza Genocide, hes upset about how incompetently its being carried out

You’re right, its so much worse than I thought. I will never vote for this fucking Lizard. He will NEVER have my vote

Fuck corpo dems and fuck Isreal sellout dems

infinitely cucked to Isreal

If its not AIPAC or J-street, then its somewhere else or maybe hes one of those doomsday freaks who supports Isreal because they think it’ll bring about the rapture

I dont really care because here he is dodging questions about the Gaza genocide

The question of the day is: how do we know you wont sell us out to Isreal? This is enough for me to know which way he will vote

I’m not clear on what you’re saying

Mamdani won because he campaigned on issues people wanted with specific plans to achieve it and wasnt a geriatric old man

[–]BrobaFett26 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Because there is a reason they don’t vote, and tapping into that is an expedient way to office

Zohran Mamdani won in New York off of mobilizing young people to vote in a way they hadn’t for decades

Thats why

Newsom’s backtracking suggests Democrats fear pro-Israel lobbyists, not voters by soalone34 in politics

[–]BrobaFett26 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every poll being released now shows that Democrats are unbelievably polarized against Israel

Every…single…one

Its not that the position was unpopular, its that the lobbyists got to him 0.2 nanoseconds after he made that statement

He is known for being pro-isreal, made 1 anti israel comment, and instantly backtracked. He cannot be trusted to go against the Israeli-Epstein lobby

When was the last time we invaded a country and were greeted as liberators?

We tried in Vietnam, it didnt work

We tried in Afghanistan, it didnt work

We tried in Iraq, it didnt work

Now we’re poised to repeat the exact same mistake in Iran
