The Democratic Socialists of America pulled its endorsement of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York this week, accusing the progressive congresswoman of being insufficiently supportive of the Palestinian cause and efforts to end the war in Gaza…
Her approach has increasingly strained her relationship with some of the left’s most strident critics of Israel. When she rallied last month in the Bronx with Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Jamaal Bowman, dozens of pro-Palestinian demonstrators angry over her endorsement of Mr. Biden chanted “You’re a fraud, A.O.C.”

The easiest way to piss off pugjesus is to expect politicians to oppose genocide everywhere, not just at home.
Oh, lol, is pugjesus a known troll?
No, he just hasn’t beaten his internalized American Exceptionalism yet.

Sorry that you feel the need to advocate for genocide abroad.

As long as none of those lives are in Gaza.

And the assumption that anyone who is critical at all of Biden’s support for the genocide must be a trumpist.
Since you can’t defend your advocacy for genocide any other way, you have to spam false accusations against anyone who dares to insist that the lives of Gazans have value even when a Democrat is president.

The only reason Biden is sending fewer weapons to Israel than Trump might, is because he is marginally responsive to the criticism you denounce people for.
Genocide at home upsets you … except when I mention the AIDs crisis and you claim that Trump is a uniquely terrible politician.
I’m not sure which genocide in the US I invoked that you’re referencing?

Didn’t know AOC was running for President, my bad.

What fascist legislator is DSA endorsing?

I wish DSA was important enough to swing more than a handful of local elections lol. She won her primary (against a fellow Democrat, by definition) with 80% of the vote. I say this with love, I don’t think you have any clue what you’re talking about? Even in the context of the general election, NY-14 is like +40 D. She’s still going to win. Thank you, I guess, for accurately pointing out DSA’s calculus in strategically endorsing and not endorsing candidates so as to not sink popular candidates while also building coalitions with Palestinian organizations?

SPLITTERS!
Infighting would imply progressives are at the table.
We are outside in the alley forever talking with the bouncer, telling them that we know the band and should be let in.
