The US primaries and the general election are two different things. Voting uncommitted in the primary expresses support for the Palestinian plight and does not give Republicans any ground.
The uncommitted movement presents a safe and effective avenue for voters to voice dissatisfaction with President Biden’s policies, particularly with the Israel-Hamas conflict. By doing so in the primary, voters can signal discontent without risking a Republican victory in the general election. The purpose is to send a wake-up call to the Biden administration that it is failing to address issues and effectively engage with the party, vis a vis that Biden is enabling a genocide.
That being said, anyone who calls for an uncommitted or third-party vote in the general election I will personally kick in the gender neutral balls (in Minecraft).
I'm hopeful, in a sick kind of sense, that the horrors of the war in Gaza will break Israel's stranglehold on US politics.
They... really have just gone mask off.
As much as I'd like to think so, I think that the US is just going to go mask off, too.
I'm hopeful. I was exceptionally skeptical at the start of this that it would change any large number of opinions in the US, because fuck, it's been long-ongoing and the Israelis had the convenient excuse of responding to a terror attack.
But public opinion is shifting much faster than I thought it would as this draws on. We may finally be able to break the Israeli grip on US politics it's had since the 80s.
