If Kamala is smart, she’ll distance herself from the Gaza situation and claim to do differently than Biden which would win the Muslim and young voters.

There's a reason American politicians support Israel overwhelmingly 

Lots of really old boomers vote reliably in American elections. 

These people think of Israel as a land back movement that succeeded (to be clear these boomers are racist and dumb) 

You guys overestimate how progressive Americans are.

There's a reason Jamal Bowman got destroyed. Yes money played a huge role but it was also that he was painted as an anti-semite and terrorists sympathizer. 

Unfortunately Americans are stupid and many of them see Israel as the only Jewish state and thus see attacks on Israel as the same as anti-semitism.

There's still a ton of old people that only watch cable news and these are the most reliable voters

I have a friend whose mom is a teacher and when I explained to him that this is socialism and it’s great, he locked up and started getting angry that socialism is bad and his mom isn’t doing anything socialist.

The average voter is balls deep in propaganda and we won’t be undoing that anytime soon.

Exactly. 

Unfortunately even a lot of well-meaning Americans associate communism and socialism with authoritarian dictatorships 

The average American literally doesn't mainly associate them with economic theories. They associate them with political theories and specifically political ideologies that advocate for authoritarian control.

Great point but what you are talking about as well isn’t economic theory but political economic theory which is derived from Economic Theory.

In of itself Economic theory is just mathematical construction of allocation decisions in (usually) R^n. 

But for example their is no economic theory that says capitalism &gt; or vice versa. 

Its really easy to conflate the two but modern economics is pretty much just optimization and dynamic mathematics. Where as political philosophy on how we should organize our economies are political econ.
