By all means vote your conscience but don't fool your self that she can win or that you can punish democratic leadership with a loss.

Bingo. It can't be the AI that's not working, it must be the workers!

Like when the DoJ doesn't release the full video of Epstein's death we get to make any argument we want

But this idea that "I won't settle for anything less than perfect" is really defeatist

We have all interacted with tankies that act like that, but they were never going to vote anyways. For everyone else, not supporting a genocide is not asking for perfection. Characterizing it as such is only going to push those voters towards the tankies.

Both can be true. Biden was improving the economy in places, but many people did not feel the recovery.

Which is more likely: a Tankie being convinced to vote Democrat or the Democratic leadership rejecting genocide? Like yes voter apathy is helping Republicans, but the cure isn't "voter discipline", it's having a party that listens to its constituents.

Arguments like yours helped maga get back into power, and are helping them stay in power.

I was with you until that line. The democrats are responsible for being unpopular, not tankies.

If Republicans start apologizing for their mistakes then we can talk. Never will happen though, best we get is "I was wrong this time but I learned nothing"

Why do you care what tankies think? Do you need their help to win elections?

If Isreal treated Palestinians like how China treats the Uyghurs then Kamala would be president.
