Just two months ago, Biden said that the invasion of Rafah is a “red line” Israel must not cross.

        I keep harping on this point, if Progressives put in the effort of being a persistent voting bloc, democratic politicians would be a lot more scared of the possibility of being primaried than they are of the possibility that progressives yet again will need to be reminded how the math works on them not voting or voting third party out of spite.

        This is literally how the far right captured the republican party. I sign my name in Arabic, 30 years ago that would have been an easy guess that I voted republican, along with most Latine and Asian folks. Persistent electoral projection is how the right took the party that marketed itself as the big tent for all traditional values in america and turned it into the Racist Chrisnats we deal with at present. Had the left put in the same effort over the same period of time, Bernie would be considered a party establishment leader.

          Young voters don’t vote as much as other demographics, but they definitely do vote. I think it was 40% turnout in 2016, but don’t quote me on it. Anyway that 40% is definitely disproportionately republican, but there’s a good number of democrats there. The idea that the Democrats have nothing to lose by antagonizing young people is wrong.

        Yeah it’s pretty disturbing. But I definitely disagree with you that Biden is for sure going to win. Looking at polls and just in general how apathetic people are about these candidates I don’t see how you can think that a Biden second term is a sure thing by any stretch of the imagination.
