    the only bad part about (at least some of) the Democrats caring about Gaza again is that we all know that it's insincere. they didn't give a shit about hospitals full of people being hit by some of the biggest non-nuclear bombs humanity has yet conceived of under Biden, but now (at least some of them) are going to pretend they care now. and in 4 years if the Dems win then they will return to not giving a shit

    I still think that liberals caring about real-world issues under Trump is a positive silver lining, but it comes with that distrust of them, because we've seen how their empathy and morality switches off simply because the president changes. how many will return to brunch when like, Klobuchar or Biden's head in a jar is elected president in 2028? I'm unsure how to radicalize these sorts of people permanently; then again, as Day indirectly says, perhaps the Democrat liberal base is barren ground from the start
