When you compare Biden to Trump vs. the effects on the Palestinians, were Trump president again, he would not just help the Israelis exterminate the Palestinians, but encourage them to do so quickly- as he’s already told Bibi to “finish it”. So your dichotomy is more than a bit disingenuous .

    I’m not sure I follow…? Are you responding to the right person?

    Gen Z could barely vote for Bernie in the primaries. Holding them accountable for “not turning out“ when it was literally impossible for the vast majority to is a pretty bold take.

    I am responsible for a vote and who I support. That doesn’t make it my fault when someone else votes for a different candidate.

      Both Gen Z and Millenials underperformed share of the voting age population. Millions of both actively chose to just not show up the one time it mattered.

      Your right that it ain’t your fault when other people vote for someone else, but the Bernie crusaders have NEVER owned up to that being 99% of what happened both times around, other people voted for someone else, and that number of other people was well surmountable by turning out at voting age share at a minimum, let alone how much more young voters could take in over representation if they could be fucking bothered to do anything but get mad at other people for not voting the way the non voters wanted them to.
