We get it you’re excited for Kamala but please stop brigading this leftist sub. Liberals are not leftists because of capitalism and as far as we know she hasn’t changed her policies so she could still be pro-Israel for all we know. Biggest issue that people had with Biden was the genocide and just because she got endorsed doesn’t mean we should suddenly forget about the Palestinians. The lesser evil argument is a just a way of proving that you have no democracy if you have to choose between two Hitlers. It just proves that your two party system is ruled by the bourgeoisie.

Im very sure Hasan would disagree liberals are not welcome. And in a country where human rights are under extreme pressure it is selfish to push away anything other than socialists.

Imma be real this hard stance on Israel-Palestine (all of a sudden lol?) proves these people need to go outside. This has been happening for decades yet now is the time they decide to anchor in and ruin any chances of strengthening workers rights, education reform, increased regulations and strong central tax collector there has been in decades. There is nothing wrong with activism, but people really don't know how to unify. No wonder there is never any leftward progress in this country. Not to mention the ones yelling loudest weren't going to vote anyways (save me time and don't bother responding with your bs, youngsters like always will never ever vote, because they are lazy not because they are disillusioned). This is all coming from someone who is very much supporter of the cause.

Eh I dont blame people for having a hard stance on it but its frustrating that it seems like its virtue signaling for some people. Where is this same outrage about the US funding a war that killed like 200,000 people in Yemen and the UN voting to stop investigation of war crimes there?

Where is the outrage over Turkey employing collective punishment against Syrian and Iraqi populations and supporting the genocide of Armenians? Where is the concern over the genocide in Sudan thats lasted 2 decades and killed hundreds of thousands &amp; displaced millions? Where is the concern over the Indigenous communities in North America that still live in abject poverty and without safe drinking water as a result of colonization &amp; genocide?

I get that people cant pay attention to every atrocity on earth and physically cannot care strongly about every injustice at all times (or we would literally go insane). I just hope people will have this same energy and hold their politicians accountable / make them earn votes over similar issues in the future, or have the same principles even when Israel's genocide campaign falls out of the news cycle. I try to be optimistic that even though a lot of the online activism is just a result of the buzz, that a lot of the people will develop that into a more holistic and less tokenistic activism. Even the terminally online activism can still support a good cause.

And yeah hopefully people can make well weighted decisions on how to balance their principles on this genocide with other policies that affect them &amp; others. Whether that's down on the ballot or through (irl) community organizing or bombarding your representatives with your demands.
