    Just because Harris is supporting a genocide on their people, made sure no pro palestinian voice could speak at the Democratic party convention, and talks down to youth protesting the genocide, these Arab Americans abandon the democrats. Talk about ungrateful. There’s no reasoning with them. /s

    They deserted the working class and marginalized decades ago, it’s about time the DNC got abandoned. It’s a shame it took genocide for people to see them for who they are.

            Centrists abandoned virtue when they supported a genocider for some perceived tactical advantage-- whether you’re voting trump or Harris. They should be doing that with their eyes open and acknowledge that cost. Arab voters arent supporting a genocider when they vote third party or uncommitted.

            You want to claim that any vote besides Harris is a vote for Trump. I supoose if people want to ignore a gencoide (like you probably do) they might as well ignore any respect for the concept of democracy and representation as well (like you probably do). Centrists are running out of things to sell out on, and running out of supporters to win the election-- and its not a coincidence that selling out and supporting a genocide will coincide with losing.

            Arabs didnt leave the democratic party, the party left them. For some AIPAC donations.

          Solidarity could help shift it left. But accelerationist have no desire or idea how to make things better. Always easier to destroy than build.

            Accelerationism aims at putting fascists into power; thus it is a species of fascism.

              Liberals also called civil rights accelerationism, labor rights accelerationism, any actual progress that has to fight government to progress is considered accelerationism.

              Then after those rights have been won, liberals jumped on the bandwagon as if they always supported them. Liberals, like MLK said, are the largest stumbling blocks to progress

          People refuse to come to terms that incrementalism is also a form of violence against the poor and working class. It only works if you have resources or peace in your area of living.

            The only thing they know is violence. Poverty is violence, lack of health care is violence, stagnant wages is violence, homelessness is violence. Democrats, along with their Republican counterparts, engage in social murder daily.

      this was the first and only administration on my memory to openly support unions. They’ve done quite a few things to improve lives. They did help out their rich donors/friends/sympathithers but not even close to the scale POTUS45 done it.

      In all honesty both Dems and Reps should go. Country deserves pluralism and not the false duality. BUT right now, at this moment in time Dems are the only real shot at moving forward. After election, start up the grill and hold their feet to fire and FORCE them to change then otherwise rally behind any other party and make damn sure they win next ellection. Doing so at 11th hour is reckless

        *Most important election of our lifetime

        In the 36 years I’ve been able to vote, every time it’s the most important election of our lifetime. Caused by a self inflicted existential crisis.

        We are not doing this at the 11th hour, many of us have been doing it all our lives.
