Everyone is so ready to drop her based on vibes so quickly that it kinda shines a light on why progressives fail. They could do a million things you agree with, but as soon as they do one thing you don't like they are immediately the devil. They are held up to such high standards that it's basically impossible to do everything right. I'm not saying her decision was correct or that her reasoning is correct. What I'm saying is that she is still one of the only politicians actively going against the encroaching fascism and oligarchy.

Like, I get it. Every single time I see Israel getting more money it pisses me off on a deep level. But I'm not going to hate someone for one of their decisions in a swimming pool of the exact opposite. Trump could shoot someone in broad daylight and be in the Epstein files and still have a base yet we hold our side up to such high expectations that we'd alienate them if they made a faux pas during an interview.

Maybe stop expecting everyone to be perfect and exactly what you want them to be and lower your fucking expectations a bit. She's still trying to fight for you while everyone else is doing exact the opposite.

Edit: Based upon the fact that most of y'all are saying that I'm defending genocide kinda proves my point. We should absolutely be angry at what's going on over there and we should never defend people that support genocide. But at the same time you should maybe direct your anger towards something productive instead of lashing out at people over the internet. Join a protest, advocate for ending support to Israel, and keep bringing up the issue and make it stay relevant. But don't think for a second that your anger will accomplish anything in a vacuum. This was literally one of her talking points 3 months ago and y'all have forgotten it in your anger. And maybe if you're expecting people to just "be better" you should probably be prepared to be disappointed every once in a while without feeling the need to attack people.
