Oh my god fuck all the way off, Harris. You’re bad at this. You’re not the leader we need, now or ever.

    She'll do

    Purity Tests are cringe af

    Let her organize grassroots so you can complain about whatever the lawn produces because the alternative is an oil spill.

    No.

    She was one of the central players that lost the Republic. I don’t ever want to see her fucking face again in politics.

    She was a bad candidate in 2016 and 2020, and she was demonstrably a catastrophic choice in 2024. And by that I mean her lack of backbone in standing up to monied interests shows that she entirely lacks the grit and will that our current era demands. Too much compromise with the neoliberals and hypercapitalists, not enough listening to actually fucking citizens and lived experience. Walz was the brightest spot in her campaign. And then she and the DNC muzzled him, with predictable results.

    There are no "good candidates", the central players that defeated the Republic are the collaborative efforts of a group of billionaires and foreign dictatorships turning social media against democracy. Any progressive candidate will face the same uphill battle and the nation will slide further into conservative autocracy unless we do something to stop it.

    I don't need perfect, but I want a candidate that's pretty solidly against genocide.

    But too tough for her though.

    Biden tried to broker peace, withheld large bombs that Israel had already paid for. Trump and other GOP candidates are favored by Israel, explicitly endorsed by Netanyahu.

    If you care about Palestinians then you should endorse Kamala and whoever else the DNC candidates are, because the alternative is worse.

    I'd rather the democratic party decide genocide is bad actually than blame the people who chose not to vote for people who aren't against genocide.

    The DNC have never supported Genocide. Biden tried to broker peace, withheld ordinance. He did not do enough, that is true, but the GOP explicitly do support actual genocide and by not supporting the DNC you've enabled the genocide.

    He didn't actually try though, is the thing. If he was trying, he would've actually withheld all of the war supplies the US is providing to Israel. He didn't.

    The DNC actively supports genocide and attacked the people who didn't. They are a party of genocide. Simple as.

    You're claiming the guy who withheld bombs and swore at his longest ally over the phone wanted the eradication of Palestinian people, but it just doesn't hold up to scrutiny. Every Biden official's stance was to negotiate peace. The emergency humanitarian aid mission and construction of a giant flotilla was the largest in US history.

    Tanks hit the ground in Gaza and West Bank for the first time in over a decade after Trump was reelected. All aid into Gaza stopped for two months, remains sharply decreased. Pete Hegseth has openly said death or exodus are the options for Palestine. Neither party's constituency approve of Israel's actions.

    Why would Biden do all that for the theatrics? It makes no sense. A pro-genocide actor would not have done so much to stop it.

    Biden was like please do not use those big bombs, just use more smaller bombs to exterminate Palestinians. He bypassed the congress twice and also gave 14 billions to Israel to continue the genocide. He claimed to want a cease fire but he knew the problem was Israel yet he blamed it on Hamas

    You didnt answer my question. Why would he claim to want a ceasefire? Why would he limit Israel's war supplies? Why would he feed Palestinians?

    Trump isn't doing any of those things and hes still unaccountable, so why would Biden give a shit, either?

    He want to claim to want a cease fire because he is an hypocrite . Hamas demands was so simple, the end of the genocide, Israel returning some of the Palestinians hostages in exchange of returning all the Israeli hostages yet Israel continued the genocide and Biden blamed Hamas knowing very well the problem is Israel.

    All the reputable human rights orgs and UN entity said that there is not enough food entering Gaza during Biden

    He didn't limit Israel's weapons either, he withheld some then gives billions to Israel in weapons and aids. If I gives you 100$ then I take back 50$ then gives you additional 1000$ I didn't withhold anything for you in fact I increased my aid to you .

    You know very well that but you just blinded by your cult like people who voted for Trump

    Trump isn't doing any of those things and hes still unaccountable

    When did it ever happen for an American president was held accountable. I wish that every single goddamn president who gives billions to Israel to be hang including Trump but no Trump will not even go to jail for pedophilia

    A slow genocide is as bad as a fast one for optics, Biden wasn't creating some elaborate facade to fool people opposed to Israel, if facades worked in the first place we wouldn't know about it.

    Biden was definitely creating some elaborate facade to fool people opposed to Israel. The facade didn't work because most people are not dumb or blinded and whistleblowers, human right activists was there to expose him and his criminal administration bullshit .

    Biden administration failed to reveal the killer of Hind Rajab but her foundation was able to? It is impossible it was pretty clear that Biden covered the criminal like they did with many other Israeli crimes

    Great people are doing to same now with Trump . Trump scuminess is clear he said he will take control of Gaza because it will make him and his oligarchs a lot money.

    With a single digit quantity of exceptions, the vast majority of our political establishment are somewhere between overt fascists and inept, useful idiots who are manifestly unfit to face the challenges of this fucked up new era we find ourselves in.

    You can rail against the entire political system all you like but you have a moral responsibility to participate in order to minimize suffering.
