He did not condemn the victims of the genocide. We are anti-genocide, especially against the genocide of the Palestinians.
And Joe Sims does not support Biden. He is trying to "block" Trump and prevent another Reagan, which he lived through.
We've actually been gaining new applications since the start of the convention.
I hope that you will at least consider the other side of the story here.
If you were anti genocide then why would you support the guy doing the genocide?
Also you clearly didn't even read the linked article where the dude blames the Palestinians for what's going on right now.
Also I am not going to try to block Trump at the cost of THE ENTIRE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE. Sure we shouldn't want Trump to be president but more than that I don't want to support am ongoing genocide.
I understand pragmatism I really do but you absolutely need to check yourself when your pragmatism comes at the cost of AN ENTIRE ETHNIC GROUP
We do not support the person doing the genocide. We are trying to block Trump.
Also, I don't think he blamed the Palestinians.
And voting for Biden is not supporting a genocide, though I won't vote for Biden.
...and how do you 'block Trump'? Quit dodging!
By supporting Democrats at the local level and municipalities and voting for Biden, but that's up to the individual members and districts; at the end of the day, it's basically just a suggestion, and many I know won't even vote for Biden (many will, of course, but you get the point).
So do you or don't you practice Democratic Centralism? Is that or isn't that the party strategy?
Yes, it is.
No, democratic centralism is not apart of party strategy; it's just how we function.
Ok, this seems contradictory to me. Democratic centralism isn't your strategy, but it is how you function. Can you please elaborate? What actually are you saying here and how isn't it a contradiction to have something be both "how you function" and yet also "not a part of party strategy"?
It’s weasel speak. These people are sycophants, you won’t get a coherent answer just soup that spins in circles
Oh you're right of course. I've read the rest of the thread, but still, I couldn't resist trying to pin him down on something. I was mostly curious to see exactly what kind of weasel speak I'd get in response, you know?
