Im an Israeli anarchist, but I'm still going to try my best at explaining.
American liberals won't ever appease leftists, or minorities, because they expect subservience and loyalty for nothing in return. In so doing they play right into the fascists' hands, trying to serve right wingers who already made their minds up in voting for a fascist.
It is very likely not only more leftists but more Muslim and arabic people would've voted for dems if it weren't for dems insisting that kamala should keep supporting israel and that criticism is amount to betrayal.
As much as i despise electoralism, being an anarchist and all, it's very simple to understand how and why this happened even from an electoralist perspective, makes one think maybe american liberals just don't want to understand.
And before anyone says I'm talking out of my ass about american libs, as if i don't know them because I don't live in the states: Know that they walk and talk just the same as israeli liberals, and these empty platitudes and threats of being a traitor are the same as i get at home.
If I'm understanding your comment correctly we're more or less on the same page.
My question is not a literal question but me pointing out the paradox sucking up to Israel to "win the election" and then blaming pro-palestine voters after they lose the election.
Oh, yeah that makes more sense, we're definitely on the same page.
