    1. Genocide is bad.
    2. Opposing genocide is always good; anyone who tries to prevent you from or talk you out of opposing genocide is tacitly or explicitly supporting genocide.
    3. Criticizing our leaders for things that they do wrong (like supporting a genocide) is always good; anyone who says otherwise or tries to convince you to not criticize our leaders is anti-democratic.
    4. Biden shouldn’t sacrifice our democracy to actively support a genocide.

      No disagreement with the sentiments. Absolutely agree.

      But that’s not what this is. This is an ephemeral news story. That’s all. That’s all it will ever be.

      Lasting change doesn’t come from waving signs and yelling in the street for an afternoon. Lasting change comes from engaging with the party by helping elect the people you want.

      Bullet points of true facts are excellent things. And they will get killed in November without organization. You think this is organized? Well then, watch as it gets killed. Because it ain’t. Organized. It’s as organized as a meme. watch it scroll by. Whooosh there it goes. Oh and now here’s a new republiQan administration to make everything 1000% worse. Huh that didn’t work somehow. Boy it’s a FUCKING MYSTERY.
