We turn to Kamala Harris’s position on Israel’s war on Gaza, which many are calling a genocide. After she was asked about calls to condition U.S. arms shipments to Israel by CNN reporter Dana Bash, Harris refused to consider halting the flow of weapons and instead affirmed her support of Israel. This position violates both federal and international law, argues Palestinian American political analyst Yousef Munayyer, and, coupled with her campaign’s denial of a requested Palestinian American speaking spot from “uncommitted” voters at the DNC, he warns that “Harris could be worse than Biden” when it comes to U.S. support for Israel.
Anyone who disagrees with your perfect view of the world MUST be an enemy who directly wants genocide.
And anyone who criticizes any Democrat’s support for genocide gets a fucking earful of “you want Trump to win” accusations.
None of us like genocide.
Ha. I wish we could link to specific modlog entries.
We’re just tired of it being used to trash the candidate who’s objectively better on the topic, shitty as that may be.
Objectively less bad. Let’s not pretend she’s good on the topic in any way.
I’m real fucking tired of people trying to pretend that her failings here mean getting the objectively worse Trump elected on purpose or on accident is somehow a coherent idea, much less a good one.
And I’m tired of the constant insinuations that anyone who thinks that no Democrat should be supporting genocide must be a trumper.
Neither fucking party should be supporting genocide. This isn’t perfect-world-everyone-gets-a-pony-and-a-blowjob-yes-even-the-women purity. This is the absolute bare minimum of what should be acceptable. It’s the most disgusting shit ever to see the “good” party willing to be complicit in the eradication of a people, and to be met with gross hostility from your own party for daring to call it wrong.
I wonder who the next entry on Netanyahu’s “then they came for” list is. Because one thing about genocide, it doesn’t end unless it’s stopped. It doesn’t end when it runs out of victims in one group. The genocidal stay in power by lying to the people that if they just get rid of those that they designate to be the cause of all the world’s ills, all their problems will go away. So when the victims are dead and the problems remain, they don’t admit they’re wrong; they’re politicians, after all. They just find a new scapegoat for all the world’s ills and continue as before. Ultimately everyone’s on that list except the genocidal maniac at the top.
