      You don't get it, they said "don't feed people into the Israeli human harvesting machine", while supplying parts and electricity for said Israeli human harvesting machine. So they are actually the good guys and you are the bad guy for being mean about Biden and Kamala.

      More importantly, they were in favor of this policy when it mattered and will oppose it once it is far enough in the past, so they actually learned and grew from their lived experience. Meanwhile, you were just static, that is why you shouldn't have any power and they should have all of it.

          Not show up late for positive change, but instead support the bad thing when it matters and oppose it when the bad thing is already implemented and you are free to pretend to be the good guy again.

    What scenario are they worried about?

    If it goes bad and Israel gets crushed they want to say they offered all the help they could or if it goes bad and Israel fills gas chambers with Palestinian children they want to say they asked Israel to show some restraint?

      I think they realize that Israel is going to actually do the final solution and they don't want to have to pull back support. Slow Holocaust = Good, Fast Holocaust = Bad

      Maybe they're worried about the scenario where they lose and people are held accountable

      They want to have a post-lanyard career as a grifter in non-profits/book deals/public speaking. If they can point to that they were trying to 'change things from the inside' they can absolve themselves from guilt when it comes up.

    We can't deny we know where this is clearly going but as always we reserve the right to actively revise history and will come after you if you call us out on it
