Why do they frame it as rights? Let's start with not fucking killing them, I'm pretty sure that's a little more fundamental than rights.
Yes we want them to have rights, but let's not jump the IDF gun here. They have to be able to live and eat before they can be granted let alone receive rights.

Because traditional news have drilled into many people's head that there are no innocents there, at all.
Some of them are so delusional that they think phrases like "Stop killing children" is said in support of terrorism. It's honestly 1984 levels of brainwashing.
It's pretty wild
Don't get me wrong: stopping Israel from genociding, colonizing, and otherwise persecuting the Palestinians is an absolute moral imperative. But in terms of being a political imperative, this poll is not saying what Truthout wants to pretend it is.
Why is Truthout.org trying to downplay/distract from the economic populism?
I wouldn't read it that way.
Being instrumental doesn't mean being the only important factor, and Truthout clearly mentions this is the third most popular reason, not the first.
But the DNC insists it was the tone of his voice, the color of his suit, and his friendly smile. It couldn’t possibly be his policies.
They just care about branding, which makes sense considering they're corporate democrats. They're no different than executives at a Fortune 500 company.
they won in the 80's by being super free market and pro-business and can't figure out why that doesn't work in the age of late stage capitalism
it's another classic bit of journalism from truthout.org and imeupolicyproject.org/

I've got a taste for sealion. Where did all the sea lions from 2024 go?
Still downplaying the genocide while pretending funding it was the only option to stop Trump.
