Palestine
A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

There was never a vote for any of those things, just the party itself. I'm reading your previous comment as a red line moment that made you stop voting for them. The key phrase being "another vote".
I'm asking why this is the red line for you on voting for an historically genocidal political party, and not some other earlier atrocity?
Oh, so this is a holier-than-thou flex, got it. I don't owe you a single motherfuckin explanation for dick, how's that. Foh.
Nope, I'm not doing any kind of flex. I've never even had the ability to vote in US elections, so I have no moral interaction with that question.
Its just that I've been talking to Dem voters lately who've finally decided that Palestine was a red line for them, and I can't help but to wonder why all the other US-backed deaths in Gaza or million dead in Iraq was not. As you'd probably expect, the reactions are usually defensive to hysterical. I'll admit was hoping for a more interesting or honest dialogue about it here.
