This is a bad faith interpretation of why leftists are upset. No one is saying the bill was enough. However, it would have had the effect of blocking Israel's defense aid, and in this desperate moment where Israel is being allowed to starve a whole people to death with no repercussions, it was something we could have done to mitigate their freedom to continue to do so. In her statement, AOC didn't just mention the offensive-vs.-defensive aid thing--she also brought up protecting innocent civilians, implying that not providing the defensive aid would result in innocent Isrealis dying. In the context of innocent Palestinians being a day or two from mass death, that is a fucking cop-out.
Thank you!!
Hi, I'm having this same issue. I moved over from the Lemmy instance using the generated code and got a generic error message when I tried to create my account, but the account was still created. However, I am being asked to verify my email like OP, and I am receiving the following error whenever I try to log in through any third-party Android app:
Client Error. Code: 400. Message: No row was found when one was required.

Being upset or disappointed with someone is not the same as not supporting them at all. Being in power naturally tends to pull people to the right--it's in the nature of serving the American empire--and it's the job of the people to remind them of why we supported them in the first place to hopefully prevent that.
