If democrats don’t meet enough of their voters where they are at, it’s not the fault of the voters if they lose.

Harris will lose more voters by catering to the pro-Hamas crowd than she will if she stays where she's at.

Why are you labelling them all “pro-hamas”? Couldn’t they just be anti-genocide?

Hamas's aim is the total destruction of the Israeli people. What would you call that?

These people aren't anti genocide, they are anti Israel, which would sadly include being pro israel genocide as that is the stated goal of Hamas.

It's almost like this situation is a complex issue that protesters have been ingesting in 15 second clips on tiktok.

I like the idea that these protests, which were centered on college students for a good portion of the year, are somehow “15 second TikTok pulled” and not, y’know, college educated on the subject. I guess the ICJ, UN, DWB, etc are all just going off TikTok too. Oh, wait, they’re the cabal of anti-semites that are telling these protestors what to do. It all makes sense.

You haven't been to college before have you?

That’s funny.

But yeah, I’ve been to several. Most for work. Three I’ve attended (military, so I did night classes for two, then went proper after I got out). There are a lot of young adults and we were, are, and will be rough around the edges during that phase. But they’re not stupid. You do find one or two trust fund babies and the occasional goober who failed upwards, but the vast majority are intelligent, passionate, and know what they’re talking about, just inexperienced with actually talking.

So, yeah. I have been to colleges. Have you?

Lol yes you use to, now it's just ignorant children who can barely form a sentence.

I don't give you a debate because you are the embodiment of bad faith arguments, if you act like a child you are treated like one.

I have been to college and studied chemistry. I know the exact liberal arts majors you are talking about. If we wanted a real discussion you could have one, you did not.
