      TIL actively supporting a genocide is a winning position for democrats.

      Do I have to explain to you how democracy works?

          “Most Americans don’t pay close attention to foreign affairs and some 50 years of steady pro-Israel propaganda funded by the Israeli state has entrenched views to the point where the past ~20 years of intensified genocide barely raised a blink in the general population; the current propagandized pro-Israel depiction of the genocide, relying on the atrocities of October 7th, still holds sway in a large percentage of the electorate, as well as the notion of Israel as the ‘only democracy in the Middle East’.”

          Would you like me to chew that sentence up and spit it in your mouth, or is that simplified enough for you to understand as-is?

            Imagine having so much contempt for the average democratic voter that you think they literally wouldn’t understand what a genocide looks like if you showed it to them.

              Oh, okay, so the overwhelming support for Israel’s genocide these past 20+ years is just, what?

              Please, tell me what the previous support for Israel’s genocide was. I’m interested in hearing what exactly you think it was, if not looking at a genocide and not recognizing it.

                  Bi-partisan American propaganda.

                  So… the electorate looked at a genocide and didn’t recognize it for what it is. Great, glad you agree. Or is it “Imagine having so much contempt for the average democratic voter that you think they literally wouldn’t understand what a genocide looks like if you showed it to them.”?

                    the electorate looked at a genocide

                    So, you think democratic politicians have been showing the electorate a genocide? You think they’ve been making any case for it?
