Well sounds like the Democratic leadership to aggressively court disgruntled voters and listening and addressing their concerns is off to a great start with this.

      By your logic, AIPAC is running the government based on how much they donate. If you are being logically consistent then you should also believe realtors are running the country.

        …they kinda fucking are lmfao. Realtors play a role in property ownership. They benefit from things like… wealthy people buying real estate to rent out.

        Anyway. Let’s not act like publicly visible donations are (the government of) Israel’s only vector for bribing and influencing US politicians.

          Lol, you’re right about the wealthy hoarding land. My point is that it would sound weird to say “the government is run by big realty!”

          It’s true that there is a lot of dark money, but by definition that is nearly impossible to attribute a source. All we can do is speculate.

            Let’s reassess from the beginning.

            First commenter established democrat party as controlled opposition.

            You called that tinfoil hat theory.

            A Jewish commenter responded to you and pointed out how the parties are bought by AIPAC (which is at LEAST partially true) by merit of AIPAC lobbying US politicians.

            You deflected their comment with deflection (racism accusation) and whataboutism (realtors are ALSO bad, and buying the government. yes. In general, btw, lobbying is bad. Because the strongest lobbies are ran by rich people).

            The point of my participation in this comment thread was purely to point out how your logic is flawed and how you have failed to provide a satisfactory refutation of what other commenters said.

            This last comment you posted is the only one where you have contributed to the conversation in a meaningful way, and still the best thing it does is say “you have no concrete proof of source of the goverment’s dark dealings”, which doesn’t really matter when the American government continues to fund a genocide, does it?

          The Nazis killed hundreds of thousands of my people. I am the farthest from a bootlicker as you can get. Keeping the center left and the far left fighting is exactly what the Nazis want, because we can’t beat them unless we fight together.

            Hundreds of thousands? Last time I checked they killed millions, and before the nazis, the Russians killed hundreds of thousands of, supposedly, OUR people. I doubt you are a jew because most of us can accurately describe how many were murdered. Like Isreal murders Palestinians, who are also semites. How does the boot taste?

              Millions total, but hundreds of thousands of my ancestors. Everyone knows about the Jewish victims of the Holocaust but people forget about the gypsies.

              And yes Israel murdered and is still murdering Palestinians. I’m not a fan of apartheid ethnoststes no matter who is running them.
