    That’s why they’re in the center. They don’t take a stand.

    The center is taking a stand right now. In favor of genocide. I didn’t know they could, either. Guess they were just looking for a cause that they firmly believe in that excites them.

      No they’re not. They’re not taking a stand at all. They’re just standing back and watching impassively like they always do.

        Circumventing congress to sell Netanyahu weapons is not standing back and watching impassively.

        Running interference for Netanyahu at the UN isn’t standing back and watching impassively.

        Voting overwhelmingly to not condition aid is not standing back and watching impassively.

        Voting overwhelmingly to fund Israel while they are committing genocide is not standing back and watching impassively.

        Claiming that those who oppose Netanyahu’s genocide have ties to Russia isn’t standing back and watching impassively.

        Centrists have finally found an issue that they won’t immediately abandon at the very first sign of opposition.

            Sorry, I’m not going to pretend that centrist Democrats are benignly bungling into this. They’re enthusiastically supporting genocide because it’s all they’ve ever wanted.
