    The Democrats are currently supporting a genocide in Gaza and are violently attacking the first amendment.

    Don’t pretend this is about healthcare.

    Edit - apparently the people idolizing the Democrats can’t handle actual criticism.

      Let’s be real here: the entire US government is supporting a genocide in Gaza. Trying to make it out to be a problem only on the left feels incredibly dishonest.

        Oh it’s not a problem with the left, it’s a political party thing. And they are the ones in charge, the ones in control of the State Department and Pentagon Leahy processes. Congress can pass whatever it wants, unless it passes a repeal of Leahy with a veto proof majority, the administration has very solid ground to stand on. They just refuse to do so.

            Yes and it reads like an attempt to both sides this issue when it’s one specific political organization responsible for it.

              Ok, so if the Republicans took power tomorrow what do you think their policy would look like re: Gaza?

                I wouldn’t care because I would be protesting their illegal takeover of the government.
