Does anyone really need the DNC "autopsy report" anyway? They push candidates who'll take money from any pac and don't really give a shit about doing what's good for the majority. They don't take "risks" like standing up for anything. Their just like a huge, shitty HR department who try to do enough to keep their jobs as long as they can

Yes and no. No, because we (as the people) know what happened. But yes because it would be telling to see how honest they were. Turns out, not at all and we’re totally cooked unless we get some different people or parties

Lesson not learned. Message not received.

I wouldn't have expected it to. There are both cynical and earnest interpretations of that. Cynically, they are avoiding pissing off AIPAC. Earnestly, the American electorate as a whole isn't moved by the plight of Palestinians.

I'll leave everyone to their own choice of interpretations, but you don't have to morally agree with the latter to feel it is true. Both could be true.
