And still students disliking genocide are the antisemites according to AIPAC and co.
Honestly, at this point I'm convinced that it's AIPAC that is still spreading the meme that disillusioned Palestinians and their supporters cost Kamala the election. The really pro Palestine leftists are the type to either never participate in electoral politics anyway, or were strategic enough to vote for Kamala. Trump won because white middle America voted for him, not due to a handful of student protesters. I think AIPAC is still pushing the "Palestine protesters lost Kamala the race" as a means of making the Palestinian cause more unpopular. And frankly, it's working. Any story on Gaza will have people gleefully celebrating it
If AIPAC is pushing this narrative, it could backfire spectacularly. An alternate way to phrase this is "Kamala's support for Israel cost her the election."
