One life spared would be harm mitigation and therefor justification. Gaza is not a moral boolean variable

You act like Kamala's position wasn't a choice she made. Do you think she was under some sort of threat of death if she didn't support genocide?

Death, no. Just losing all that campaign funding

[–] timewarp 1 points 17 hours ago

So you're saying that had she not supported genocide, that she wouldn't have got enough funding to run her campaign? How is that any better? Are you suggesting that Israel has so much money that a candidate can't win unless they support whatever they do? Hasn't the left been alleging that Israel having massive influence in American politics and media due to money was an antisemtic trope? How does Bernie win while still trying to stop weapon shipments to Israel?
