"Progressives should not make the same mistake that Ernst ThƤlmann made in 1932. The leader of the German Communist Party, ThƤlmann saw mainstream liberals as his enemies, and so the center and left never joined forces against the Nazis. ThƤlmann famously said that āsome Nazi trees must not be allowed to overshadow a forestā of social democrats, whom he sneeringly called āsocial fascists.ā
After Adolf Hitler gained power in 1933, ThƤlmann was arrested. He was shot on Hitlerās orders in Buchenwald concentration camp in 1944."

Single issue voters are hilarious. Thatās how we got here.
My comment said that Iām voting against my conscience wrt Palestine, so your comment doesnāt really make sense.
I agree that is a fucking terrible stance. Itās fair to criticize them both for that stance and, especially after the election, we should all push them hard to change their stance.
It is absolutely shitty that they wonāt charge until after the election (if ever). Yes. Is it fair? No. Is it likely the only chance? Yes.
