    I don’t have a burner account and my stance won’t change after Nov 5th. The entire point of the article is about how Bernie is saying she is still better than Trump on the whole Israel-Gaza conflict. I am saying that’s not a good enough argument to compel people to vote for her. She needs to effectively show what she wants to achieve and how she wants to achieve it. No bullshit about “Israel’s right to defend itself and I support a ceasefire”. Her current stance on this whole issue is not good enough. She has a lot of good policies, no doubt about that and no rational person can say she would be worse than Trump. But she is failing miserably on this topic, and that’s an understatement.

    It shouldn’t be a contentious issue to demand better from world leaders. Especially the leader for the most powerful country in the world.

      You can demand it after she’s president then, when you continue to have rights in tact.

      You won’t get the opportunity otherwise. That’s the fucking point.

      This isn’t a fucking game any more. This isn’t a hypothetical. This is reality.

        Excuse me what? Demand it after she gets voted in and can give even less shits? This is the time to demand things. I get people are scared of Trump getting elected, and rightfully so. But people still need to demand things like this. “Better than Trump” is a ridiculously shitty endorsement.
