  exactly the positions of the Democrats

  Kinda weird that you’re referring to democrats as a whole as Zionists when there are literally pro-Palestinian democrats in congress, never mind regular people who vote democrat. Their party as a whole isn’t unified on the matter but to equate democrats with zionism isn’t exactly accurate either.

    The democratic party, as a whole, is pro-business, pro-Israel, and center-right. One only need listen to their podcasts to confirm this.

    I listen to Al Franken’s podcast on occasion because I used to like his show before I went Left. I check in once in a while and he says things openly that they don’t say officially, like how funding Ukraine is meant to bleed Russia’s economy (I’m no simp for Russia; I just want Ukraine not to be invaded rather than wanting a proxy-war). I listened to a handful of PodSave back in the day. I couldn’t get into them even before I went hard Left. These are the two that are familiar to me.

    I don’t know about the bot or the politics of the person behind it. But there are very much positions of “the Dems.” I’m voting for Harris because fuck fascism, but it’s amazing to me that Dems in the USA are closer to the right wing in Europe than to the Left in Europe. People should notice. Sure, our Repubs are batshit crazy to the right in a way that only the most extreme appear to be in Europe, but that doesn’t mean it’s ok that we have very little actual Left in the USA.

    Apologies for errors and steam of consciousness. It’s early and I don’t have time to proofread before work.

    Extremists never let reality get in the way of their absolutist slurs.

      Imagine calling people advocating against literal Genocode extremists.

  As opposed to the anti-Zionist Republicans? The fuck are you talking about?

    As opposed to the anti Zionist third parties such as Cornel West and Jill Stein.
