Who do you mean by liberals? And what would have been the best way to not wholeheartedly support the genocide?

I'm not trying to pick a fight, but I am curious to know who is being accused, and of what specifically. I'm not a US citizen, but I was hoping Kamala would win the election last year. I'm also, like any decent person, disgusted by what's going on in Gaza and shocked that the entire world is more or less just looking the other way as Israel commits genocide of these people who are just trying to live in their own country.

Just seems to me like there were no good options for an American voter - vote democrat and continue to pressure the party to do the right thing with regard to Gaza, or vote for trump/abstain, which is abhorrent for an endless number of reasons. What should the average person be doing?

Bruh the post is talking about politicians and political commentators/media people. Not random voters.

Also this "vote democrat but pressure them" line has never made sense. How are you pressuring them while literally voting for them. "You better start doing what i want or i might vote for you again, but i wont like it!" LOL
