no world in which the forced famine of 1.1 million people cannot be considered genocide

Dont be fooled. Shes doing this to not be voted out, not because she cares
Look this is true but AT LEAST it's how politics is supposed to work, it's not about choosing the most ethically and morally consistent person, it's about having a person in the seat who will vote the way their constituents want, no more

She's even to the right of the rest of "the squad", and was the only member to not vote against a 1B USD package to fund Israel's Iron Dome.

How is the indigenous resistance surrendering going to end generations of apartheid and occupation?
Well they'll either be dead or forced out, so technically it won't be apartheid or occupation any more.
