In the leadup to an election is when there is maximum ability to influence the policies of the candidates. At no time before or after this period will any individual voter have more influence. Libs could have joined in with the uncommitted movement months ago and continually demanded an arms embargo on israel as a precondition for their votes. They could even have fucking lied and in their cowardly little hearts known that they were going to vote for the dems anyway. But no, even that small amount of effort was too much. Instead they immediately en masse announced their unconditional support for the dems and spent all their effort viciously attacking anybody who even mildly criticized their candidate. Absolutely useless dumb fucking crackers. I will not forgive them.

    Liberals are similar to stupidpolers.

    They think any movement to the left will alienate everyone and doom the party to irrelevance under fascism.

    Yes, many if not most Americans are CHUDs and would probably think even the ERA is too scary. But as Lenin said, tailism is a doomed strategy that opens gateways to right opportunists. I’m not saying it’s easy, and there is a chance of failure. But any vanguard or any other org can work to make these ideas less scary to the masses.

      what makes it worse is that support for Palestine is not even a losing issue for mass electoral politics!
