Elections in the US are won by single-digit percentage points.
If leftists are 2% of the coalition, and anti-leftists are 20% of the coalition, do you think it's reasonable for the leftists to demand total capitulation to them in exchange for their vote? Do you think that a total capitulation to the leftists, in this case, would result in the coalition then having a net... gain in votes?
Sorry that you're so uncomfortable with the way democracy works.
Lol I'd settle even for passive toleration, I don't need 'total capitulation'
Not getting shot at and tazed would be a good start
Okay, I'll tell Biden to put away his taser and stop saying that the Palestinian protesters don't have a point and should be brutally attacked by local police.
Maybe try telling him criticism of Isreal isn't antisemitic, he seems a little confused about it
Yeah, I remember when he said "Those Palestinian protesters don't have any valid concerns, they're just a bunch of antisemites."
"I condemn the antisemitic protests,” is literally a direct quote lmao.
Ah, I knew that lazy soundbite would come up. You get that from a script, or are you just good at parroting?
Lmao is that context supposed to change the meaning of the quote somehow? How?
Yes? That Biden is condemning, specifically, protests that are antisemitic, as that is specifically how the question is phrased, not all campus protests.
None of the protests are anti-Semitic 🙄 that's the lie that pro-Israel folks and Biden are spreading.
So the "shining beacon of leftism" in America, Mr.Sanders, has a podcast with a host who is a professor and even she has admitted THERE ARE ANTISEMITIC STUDENTS that are getting out of hand at her school as well as others.
That said this ISN'T "all Isreal criticism is antisemitism." It's "antisemities are using this time to come out against Isreal along side the protestors." So you can't just bury your head in the sand and pretend they don't exist especially if you're the president and you're being asked about it.
Like I said, antisemitism has been happening regardless of the protests and to tie them together is irresponsible reporting. It's very easy to condemn antisemitism at the same time as saying that the protests are not antisemitic.
I love how this OP keeps posting quotes that just make Biden look like more and more of an asshole
