Former democratic party activists are organizing Muslims and Arab-Americans in Swing states to vote against Biden with the demand that he support a ceasefire in Gaza.

I'll allow them a little bit of electoralism this time.

    It's a pressure campaign. They're offering to stop if Biden backs a ceasefire.

      I don't follow - this seems to be about a very specific thing; I was speaking very generally trying to understand the anti electoral stance.

      Maybe I missed the demonstrative nature of your example - if you're willing to explain further, I'm happy to read/learn.

      Thanks for your perspective and time.

        Sorry, I assumed you were talking about the article. I'm not anti voting, I'm against using running for office as a strategy for social change.

          No worries, that's a reasonable assumption. My apologies for being off on a tangent here in the comments :)

          Thanks for inspiring me to be conversational
