I completely agree. Just pointing out the technical difference between pro-zionism and harassing/othering anti-zionists for reasons only indirectly related 😉

In the next few weeks, we'll see if centrists start abandoning their hostility toward the anti-genocide wing of the party. I don't think they will. I think you've drawn a distinction without a difference.

It's a distinction without much of a practical difference, yes, but I still think that not considering atrocities a deal breaker and being in favor of the atrocities should be distinguished between.

Can't argue as effectively against a wrong conclusion if you don't know the reasons for reaching it, is my point.

And yeah, you're right about them already blaming everyone to the left of Reagan for the pro-Cheney campaign failing to defeat a personally repulsive fascist idiot 🤦

Agreed until they start being hostile to all criticism of the party, even when the criticism is about genocide support.
