You want her to commit political suicide before winning an election.

I'm with you. I agree with you that Israel needs to chill the fuck out. But instead of just going with my feelings, I also looked at the polls. Most Americans don't care, and AIPAC is very, VERY well funded. And US politics runs on money. And most of the folks that would decide the election? The 'swing' voters that can't make up their mind on whether or not they're voting for Harris or Trump even after he tried to overthrow the government in 2020? A lot of them think Palestinians are just terrorists. They're looking at the news the right wing is funding of Palestinian/Muslim protests in Europe and thinking, "Well fuck, I don't want those nutjobs over here?"

Giving that endorsement right now would be a dream come true for Republicans. They'd finally have the attack angle they need.

Harris says that now? She loses. Trump is president, and Palestine is even more fucked than they are now. And everyone else gets fucked with them too. You want the Democrats to change course? You have to change that calculus first. Until you can prove that you vote in greater numbers, and more consistently than the brain dead 'swing' voters in middle America, nothing will change. Promising you're not going to vote is the absolute worst thing you could do in that situation.

I'm being realistic about the state of the country I live in. You're not. This isn't the time for pie-in-the-sky idealistic bullshit. If Trump wins, we're all fucked. We're not going to get a do-over if we lose this one.
