Is anyone even saying that? I thought the whole issue was about withholding votes by votong undeclared in the upcoming primary to draw attention to the fact that Biden can't take this voting bloc for granted and should listen to their concerns. A significant group of voters using their collective leverage. Back in the day we would've called that effective democracy.

the voice of reason

There are In fact LOTS of progressives saying they won’t ever vote for Biden ever based on the current war in Palestine. It’s strange to me to give up on the every thing else in your life for the plight of the Palestinian people which is a very complex situation politically, economical, and militarily in that region. A lot of rights here in the US are on the line. Things can get infinitely worse.

aaaaaand we're back to fantasyland

Palestine is so complex that my pea brain just can't form a single opinion. This is a normal thing to say about a conflict with a 20:1 casualty ratio.

Thank God MSNBC and Fox News told me what to think, otherwise I'd have to like, read a book and look at a map or something.
