I really think the left were the canary in the coal mine with this entire Israel issue. I personally know people who didn't give a fuck about Gaza during the election, who are now really wondering why shit is the way it is, who are slowly realizing (in their own ways) how it's all connected.
My default assumption is that whenever there's a widespread youth protest movement focused on improving rights or human safety, most of the time those kids are on the right side of history.
Not necessarily the left, but I've always called trans and disabled people a canary in the coalmine for fascism. We're always among the first groups they come for
Enabling netanyahus best buddy to become president was not a smart move.
We agree. Pathetic that democrats lost to him twice
