I read this lib "how to" about Gaza - How To Speak To Voters Who Say They Can't Support Biden Because Of Gaza. The substack is co-run by George Takei and he's built himself into a super-popular lib brand. I wanted to know what he was promoting.
Most of it was exactly what I expected. But a surprising word stuck in my craw - "dealbreaker". As if there can be a "deal" made on morality. And - of course - the "deal" is we must change 100% and see things the lib way while they don't change an iota. Quite a deal!
Most of us know someone on the left who is dug in against voting for Joe Biden because of U.S. policy toward Israel and Gaza. For them, the continued support of Israel and the flow of weapons is a dealbreaker, and they say they can’t support a president for reelection who would back a genocidal campaign against the Palestinians.
My jaw dropped on reading that
The ice-cold disregard libs have for human life is far more disturbing to me than frothing fash hatred
The right tries to stab you in the heart, so at least you see it coming. Liberals put an arm around you like you're pals, then stick you in the kidney.
And they say "You gotta vote for Biden. Ya don't want Trump again - do you?" as they twist the knife.

Mine too. I thought corgiwithalaptop was paraphrasing. But no, that is verbatim from that post. I can't think of anything more evil than an actual genocide, except for trying to kill all of humanity. What sort of human being writes that?
Which is also a genocide
