Exactly. Terminally online leftists who believe they’re a far more powerful and influential bloc than they are (especially since they never fucking vote in primaries and only start whining during general elections) think that Democrats need to pander to them 100% of the time, and they lose when they do not.
They have no fucking idea how politics in the real world actually works.
Had the Democratic party courted their votes the way they demand, the Democrats would have received fewer votes. I’m confident of this.
Not only would so many of these people still stayed home because it’s never perfect enough for them, they would have lost a shit ton of centrist voters.
AIPAC is powerful for a reason. Unfortunately, there are tons of people in this country that are only just now beginning to come around on Israel.
And those people vote every fucking time.
Millions of people that voted D would have stayed home had Harris came out strong against Israel, and hardly any leftists would be convinced to get off their ass or vote for anyone but third party.
Sucks that this is how it is, but this is first past the post in a nation full of politically illiterate morons
