2012, 2016, and 2024 all have pretty equal share Dem votes, 2020 is the spike in Dem. So it speaks more to apathy than genocide.
Also, with Trump, Gaza is glass. They are so fucked now that the Biden stuff is going to look like a US school shooting where no one cares. I guess the upshot is that we won't have to worry about Gaza much longer since all the Palestinians will be turned into dust soon.
But everyone knew that. Staying home just meant you wanted the Palestinians dead at a faster rate without tangential guilt. Easy for one to excuse Trump giving the nod for bibi to end everyone if you can say "well I didn't vote for him."
There you go. Blame progressives and people that wanted good things. Attack the people that want change, rather than demand Democrats change anything. That'll certainly get you a victory like it did this time. Is your new plan in 2028 to just attack everyone who isn't blindly loyal?
Yes I will blame the ultra progressives who annoy me almost as much as maga. Ya’ll just love to “talk” about change but you just cause more chaos for dems. Hope you enjoy living under MAGA because of your fucking pride.
Is there any evidence to support the claim that ultra-progressives caused Harris to lose?

Quick google search and you can for it yourself.
I’ll just post the very first link

*Perceived* leftward shift. The Democrats aren't that left wing in the first place. If democrats are going to be perceived as too left wing regardless of reality, they might as well take on some left-wing policies, so they can at least bribe voters with stuff that obviously and immediately makes things better for them like UBI.
If you're suggesting throw LGBTQ people under the bus, that is just wrong. What would we be fighting for at that point?
@politicalmemes
I did my part in trying to elect Harris.
What is the point in moderating if even after moderating Democrats are perceived as too left-wing?
@politicalmemes
Then what are you bothering me for? I’m obviously not talking about you then.
