If only they'd put this much effort into getting one person to change her mind on the issue, instead of trying to get 10 million people to change their morals.

It appears especially ghoulish now after it came out that even her campaign's polling showed that it was a losing position.

Finally I can stop wondering how the protest voters handle aiding and completing a genocide while claiming to have any sense of morality at all.

They ignore it because they never cared, that's IT! NOTHING ELSE. ITS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSES FAULT BECAUSE OF THEIR NARCISSISM.

I’m surprised we haven’t sortied any B-52s to carpet bomb Palestinians yet tbh

You think they actually gave a shit.

Palestine was just the latest version of "The Issue"

Someone they can make their entire personality to make themselves look good.

Oh look at that, exactly what literally every sane person predicted would happen is happening.

Yes after a year+ of genocide, it's continuing unabated. People would have to be ins4Ne to believe anything else was gonna happen.

I would be curious to see the numbers but I don't think the pro Palestine protest voters cost the Democrats the election. It definitely didn't help, but the Dems shat the bed in way more ways than just the Palestine situation.

Id say anyone with half a brain, paid attention and was an informed voter knew exactly this is what we were in for - but it's clear most Americans are not informed because of the huge number of people who didn't participate (for whatever reasons)

Trump claiming credit for ceasefire and then destroying the region was always Bibi's plan. The propalestine protestors were against the administration for refusing to acknowledge that the israeli's were not negotiating in good faith. Had they played hard ball things might have been different.

Democrats are mentally incapable of even considering the possibility that their losing to Trump two out of the three times they've ran the exact same campaign and candidate is their own responsibility. No, it must be the *checks notes* people who wanted them to be a little more critical of killing Arabs who are responsible. Wonder who you'll blame when Trump inevitably runs for a third term and you decide to copy/paste your campaign strategy and candidate because you've learned abso-fucking-lutely nothing. I'm betting "people who don't worship trillionaires enough", because we'll have some by then.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

You act like this wasn't a sure thing either way but I get it blaming voters is easy.

And we can all for a second remember the fact Trump basically said they meddled in Pennsylvania, what's the chance the richest people in America if not the world could afford to steal an election.
