No. It's not our problem to fix. It's sometimes just a choice to walk away which everyone seems these days to push that you should just focus on yourself anyways.

If they don't want our input, or effort or thoughts but just want a vote and some money then fuck it. I'm not involved and I don't have the sway or money to even be a bother to them.

I won't just be a resource to be won by default.

You have a completely different perspective than I. Yes, the Democratic party is being an ass to voters; yes, I hate them for what they're (not) doing; but I can slightly affect the odds to be slightly better for Palestine, so I will.

You can send a message that you're not a pawn, but they don't care, or at least in 4 years it won't matter anymore. If you want the best for Palestine, analyze your options for what's best, of which giving up and stepping back is not a very good one.
