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.

    why would one vote for genocide at all? because you’re scared of fascism?

    note: fascism is here on the dem and rep sides both. dem are just better at hiding it

    i’d rather vote for anyone other than rep or dem at this point.
