    Yeah no shit, even the non-Zionist liberals could see that what was happening in Gaza was a problem. Leaders demonstrate leadership by solving problems. It’s the fucking trait you look for. It doesn’t matter if they delegate or do it themselves they take action to solve the problem.

    They don’t ignore the problem. I don’t care how thick the ideology is, it’s still a big lie to swallow when you see them with hands over their eyes and ears and you choke on your own words defending their “leadership.”

      It wasn’t hands over eyes so much as outright complicity though. They knew exactly what they were supporting, and didn’t check them at all in truth, only performative checks that meant nothing, and everyone in reality knows it. Stopping shipments of mega bombs until they make a show of letting in a few dozen aid trucks for instance, as if the don’t have a stockpile, the ability to make their own as we made sure they can, and otherwise get them elsewhere.

      Biden, and Kamala, thought we were pretty fucking stupid, and or powerless, and revelled in their arrogance in dropping the mask and ruling as we all knew they were, tools of the rich and powerful that work to crush popular reform, not to win elections. Their mandate from the donors that control the party is to keep out the left, popular reform, and to not revoke the license granted to the rich and security services. It’s never been more clear, even as since 2020 no one could deny the Republicans were planning on fixing elections and we were one election away from an indefinite kakistrocracy running a reign of terror on the parts of the population that fight for the common good and all forms of opposition to them, (soon their own supporters will be targeted if they get absolute power, and their assets stripped for the leaders personally but that’s another story,) and otherwise killing the republic in all but name emulating hitler.

      The party learned nothing either. As arrogant as ever, passing the buck, blaming voters despite knowing it’s a doomed to fail strategy, for the aforementioned reasons.
