Defending the constitution with all the vigor of the US Supreme Court.

Honestly sounds like a blessing in disguise. Why would you want to work at such a garbage place?

I used to think highly of that university, now I despise it and would never allow my kid to attend it. Gaza exposed its deep corruption forever.

Don’t worry the Trump administration will make this all better. That is why many people concerned about Gaza voted for him. Just hang on for a few more weeks and it will all be better.

Just take note of the fact that this is happening under the Biden administration when there is no longer any tangible political cost for standing on the side of free speech, justice and recognising the humanity of Palestinians. Dems lost because they are fascist too now.

Democrats aren’t fascists, they lost mostly because they were the incumbent and the corrosive effects of the right’s propaganda juggernaut that pervades our society.

The truth is issues like the Israeli Palestine conflict don’t matter to most voters.

We are all about to experience fascism

In what reality can you continue to call yourself a 'liberal' when you fund, enable and participate in a Genocide -while violently suppressing peaceful protest at home?

Opposing right wing factions like Hamas and Bibi need each other to stay in power. Hamas’ Oct 7th attack created the space that Bibi needed politically for war.

Russians opportunists trolls used the conflict to divide the democrats to help install Trump

Blaming the dems benefits the far right.

Wrong. Israel is the US's vassal state. They hold the purse. Nothing happens without some level of complicity. Reagan ended the barbaric bombing of Beruit in 1983 with a single phone call. Biden's 'let Israel do whatever they want' approach lacked a basic commitment to int' law and recognition of HR
