    It’s not their failure if they lose. They’re paid to lose on purpose. It’s their success, their win. And spreading their propaganda about how much they suck, that’s doing their dirty work for them. That makes it your success too, as a right wing journalist.

    The party contains bought cynics and legtist idealists. They win, the idealists force them to do good things. They lose, the cynics collect a paycheck. But you? You do this for free.

    • Of course I do it for free. I don’t want money to say Free Palestine.

      Nor do I want to get paid to keep reminding the world that we witnessed a genocide broadcast in 4K after being taught “Never Again” my entire childhood.

      Do you make money telling lies and make excuses on behalf of the political party that funded and helped orchestrate the genocide?

        You really could be making money though, helping the Republicans win the election. You could be a grifter like Blaire White. You’re already spreading right wing propaganda. If you’re gonna kill Gazans anyway, you might as well get that bag.

        Now I’m not as amoral as you, I can’t be complicit in genocide. But you could use your lack of moral compass for profit, like Chuck Schumer.

        Instead, you help him lose for free.

                Whataboutism. Clean up your own act before you throw stones.

                Cool guys like Abdulrahman are infiltrating the Dems and dragging it left. Abdulrahman would never fund Israel. But you talk like he doesn’t exist, you reduce the entire party down to the cynical old timers in the ologarchs’ pockets. While ignoring those cynics’ very aim: to lose.

                You and the DNC are walking hand in hand towards the same goal, using the same methods. You’re both trying to keep idealists like Abdulrahman from making change, by ensuring he loses to the fascists.

                • There’s a huge difference between what politicians say and do before they get elected and after.

                  I’m cheering for the guy alongside you. I hope he gets elected. I’m not putting much faith in him.

                  Mamdani talked a good game as well. Who’d he pick as his head of police? Cuz that’s very revealing.

                  How many times did he go to a pro-palestine rally since getting elected? He’s been finding excuses to avoid it altogether.

                  Dems core and establishment is firmly pro-genocide. There’s only so much change he’ll bring fighting them alone. I hope he wins still. Politicians have to work within that system and there’s not much wiggle room if you aren’t an imperialist yourself.

                    He’s alone because there’s millions of centrists like you who won’t support him, won’t support people like him. What kind of lukewarm ass support was that? I’ve seen people get more excited about a lego building reality show than you got about Abdul! That was some weak shit!

                    You gotta have hope. You gotta believe in a better tomorrow or you’re not going to be capable of building it. I’m a strategic anarchist because I believe in a better tomorrow. You should too.

                    You gotta express love, not just rage. You gotta build stuff up, not just tear it down. There’s no future in directionless whinging. You can’t just stand against stuff. You gotta stand for something, too.
