Oh wow, sounds like a great plan, wonder why it has never panned out over the many decades of this talk.

Because too many people don't have the patience or attention span to suck it up for an decade and "protest not vote" over stupid shit like Palestine/Israel being eternally at war or because a candidate didn't campaign EXCLUSIVELY on giving trans people all the candy.

These issues are important, but maybe a bigger, more important issue is not letting the fucking Nazis take over. Because no one wins under the Nazis, not Palestine, not trans people, not women, not Hispanic people, not even white CIS asshole dudes in the end.

No one.

stupid shit

Yeah man, the modern day holocaust is just some silly little thing. And the Holocaust is just the only tiny little disagreement people have with the democrats. It definitely isn't the straw that broke a very overburdened camels' back.

Not letting the Nazis take over

Both parties are Nazis. You really seem to struggle with this. But then again, you are calling a genocide "stupid shit" and both-sidesing it, so you are pretty close to being one yourself.

There are plenty of people who claim they didn't vote for Harris or didn't vote at all, because she was kind of wishy washy on he stance on the whole thing.

Meanwhile Trump was openly stating he wants to bulldoze Gaza and turn it into a Dubai style resort for rich people.

These are not the same, and it's fucking stupid that people seem to act like they are. Especially given the tidal wave of EVERYTHING ELSE the GOP have been openly pushing.

"Holocaust" or not, the GOP is bad for everyone. Especially everyone in the country.

And it is stupid shit. They have been going back and forth for decades and before that there was still fighting constantly in that space because everyone thinks they have exclusive rights to their stupid Sky Daddy homeland over everyone else. It's just endless fucking religious bull shit wars. Don't act like Palestine wasn't also killing innocent people going the other way before. Today's conflict doesn't exist in a vacuum.

Couldn't possibly be because a sizable portion of the "left" is actively working against it...could it???

Probably not, since Obama had a supermajority and yet your promised land never came to be. All we got was drone-strikes on Afghan wedding-venues, slave-trade in Libya, bailouts for stockbrokers, more deportations than under Bush and the slow deterioration of conditions that fascilitated Trumps first election victory.
Somehow this is the lefts fault, a movement that is both powerful enough to hamstring the democrats from... implementing health care? And also not powerful enough to actually listen to.

Personally I think its the fault of that dastardly parlamentarian and [insert designated villain of the week democrat]!

You know this talk of yours has been around since the 1800's, right? All it has amounted to is running Democrats that would make Reagan look like a pinko.
