As an outsider looking in, it feels really odd that this could even be a firm issue for any voter. Like that high horse sailed so long ago, how can you possibly blame the current president for what has been a national policy for 75 years?

Sure, push for a candidate that doesn’t support Israel and dissent as much as you can. But every time I read a comment about “Genocide Joe” it screams Russian propaganda farm.

Trying to get a progressive agenda by only thinking about the Presidency is like trying to win a game with only hail Marys. We need to focus on smaller races in house and build up from there. It would be a stronger and longer lasting change. Even if you’re in an area that doesn’t have any competitive progressives running in the primary, you are allowed to volunteer to help progressive candidates in areas that do.

It puts the genocide on its skin or else it gets the Trump again

If Joe Biden can’t take primary era criticism and use it to reinforce his general election campaign then he is truly unfit to lead. I’m voting for Uygur in the primary. We’ll see who’s still alive for the general.

So, according to both Reddit and Lemmy, we need to be a ONE political party system, where we vote on ONE type of President every election… that’s called communism.

Every Election Cycle, vote to keep sky from falling. Before I die, I would like to have a candidate that somewhat aligns with my priorities.

Welp… it’s not a lie. What a horrible situation to be in. Anyways, it it helps, I find it impossible that trump would support palestine. So it’s kind of a useless point atm.

“Vote me. I’m not the biggest shit” is not a good idea.

Gonna cut her some slack since the last time trump was president his sycophants almost kidnapped and executed her.

It is a goddamn primary election and there isn’t oppostion to Biden. Anyone voting uncommitted in the primary is having no actual effect on the general election as Biden will be the nominee no matter what the voters express.

Telling the voters they doth protest too much is electorally a shit strategy.

And shit electoral strategies on behalf of the Democratic Party is how we got Trump once and now likely twice.

Voting uncommitted is a fine thing to do during the primary. It shows the party that people are displeased with how the government is handling the Gaza situation.

Sitting out an election in Michigan is a bad idea. If you’re in a safe state, go wild. Just not Michigan.

She’s not wrong, but I’m not sure this strategy is going to work. Biden is at risk of losing Michigan because of his support of Israel, and I think people are going to be swayed by a, “better than the other guy,” argument on that issue. You can argue that economically, even if Biden is not as progressive as you’d like, he will govern in a manner closer to your beliefs than Trump. Trump is even more hostile to the Palestinians than Biden, but if Biden is supplying Israel with unconditional military aid while defunding UNRWA, it will be hard to claim that he’s different in any practical way. If the democrats are worried about Michigan, they should be trying to push Biden to do something meaningful, like restoring humanitarian aid to Gaza, not scolding their voters.

You all think the Democratic voters are much smarter than their counterparts? Thats are All products of the same sale broken education system.
