      Netanyahu is committing genocide and we are wrong to sell him weapons. Centrists will never admit this because it means that the only policy they won’t abandon at the first hint of pressure is not only morally reprehensible, but also politically unpopular.

      If any centrist wants to admit that supporting genocide was a mistake, I’d love to hear it. For the first time.

        “Centrists will never admit this…”

        centrists, and most people now, agree with both of those things, what are you talking about?

        you have a non-argument.

        you’re trying to rile up anger by safely condemning the imaginary offenses of a vague minority that you likely belong to.

        “If any centrist wants to admit that supporting genocide”

        centrists don’t support genocide, and if you think otherwise then you clearly don’t know anything about what’s happening in Palestine or in your own country.

        “For the first time.”

        you got to read some books. articles, watch an interview or two.

        If you are unaware of what’s happening and what people are saying, that is your fault, not some vague political minority that you’re ascribing your insecurities and ignorance to.

          Selling weapons for an ongoing genocide is support. Just because you like it, that doesn’t mean it’s not support.

            “Just because you like it, that doesn’t mean it’s not support.”

            who told you that liking things means you don’t support those things?

            your runarounds are bonkers and inaccurate.

            slow down and organize your thoughts, they don’t make no sense.

              You’ll pretend to have no reading comprehension skills before you will admit that supporting genocide is wrong.

                you making mistakes and avoiding corrective information doesn’t mean other people can’t read.

                you are wrong.

                  I didn’t say you can’t read. I said you were pretending to be unable to read because otherwise, you might have to admit that genocide is wrong.

                    “I didn’t say you can’t read”

                    cool, nobody said you did.

                    “you might have to admit that genocide is wrong.”

                    If you don’t think genocide is wrong, that is your issue, don’t blame it on some vague “other” that you don’t understand or agree with.

        ha, truth. they sound nuts

        you’ll probably notice that every person arguing against “centrists” as if they aren’t centrist is very proud of their refusal to provide evidence for their arguments or read any articles refuting their mistakes.
