Confirming what most of us, except the diehard Democratic Party fans, knew. It was obvious it didn’t need an admission. You don’t send bombs to Israel, move aircraft carriers to threaten anyone who might intervene, and threaten to sanction the ICC if you were truly pursuing ceasefire.

Would this stop the liberal-hate towards those who took the moral high ground and stayed home or voted third party? Probably not. But it is our fault for ever expecting good to come out of them.

The Democratic Party is shit, and they did all kinds of wrong to Palestine. But did not voting make it any better for Palestine? No. Worse? Possibly. Economy? Worse. Human rights? Worse. International relations? Worse. Ukraine? Worse. Authoritarianism and fascism? Worse. Corruption? Worse. General fucking common sense and decency? Worse. And the list goes on. The hate is not because of compassion for Palestine. The hate is because NOTHING has improved for Palestine, a whole lot of other things has gotten significantly worse, and this was entirely predictable.

Which was something Blinken suggested back in October 2023. It was covered in Arabic media maybe it was overlooked in US and European media.
