Progressives acknowledging the fact of genocide is a good first step, and it’s useful that Ocasio-Cortez and others have done so — “I think [unconditional aid to Israel] enabled a genocide in Gaza,” she said in Munich — but it is not in and of itself sufficient. Before anyone in the party can move on to selling a post-Biden vision of human-rights-first foreign policy, they must address what accountability for the war criminals in the Biden administration — those who aided, armed, and funded genocide — should look like.

    Found the single issue voter that helped put Trump in the Oval Office.

    I’d be open about what I think of single issue voters, but that could net me a ban even on Lemmy.

        You really think your non-vote that enabled Trump, ICE, doge, RFKJr, etc really made the world a better place?
