Progressives acknowledging the fact of genocide is a good first step, and it’s useful that Ocasio-Cortez and others have done so — “I think [unconditional aid to Israel] enabled a genocide in Gaza,” she said in Munich — but it is not in and of itself sufficient. Before anyone in the party can move on to selling a post-Biden vision of human-rights-first foreign policy, they must address what accountability for the war criminals in the Biden administration — those who aided, armed, and funded genocide — should look like.

    To me, this seems focused on a goal, that while admirable, doesn’t actually help in the current situation.

    Bingo.

    It’s gonna be “fun” watching Repubs win again in 26 and 28 because liberals are too busy infighting trying to cleanse the Democrat party to 100% purity in the face of fascism.

    And then we won’t have to worry about elections anymore. But hey, at least we’ll have clear consciences as we’re being gassed.
