· Föderation EN Di 13.05.2025 06:29:05 @marymessall I'm sure many have, in public and in private, but I'm not going to depress myself by searching for them. I'm using it as an extreme example of a "pivot toward the right" strategy that would be unacceptable to anyone. |

Föderation EN Di 13.05.2025 06:49:22 I think it would be better to use an example that's actually happened. If Democratic party leadership actually did that, they'd lose a lot of support. Which is why they haven't, and won't. I understand that their policies on Israel are not good. But you can criticize them for that without accusing them of stuff they didn't do. Lord knows we have enough misinformation out here already. |

Föderation EN Di 13.05.2025 07:16:27 @marymessall great, you should definitely use an example that's actually happened when you post about it. |

Föderation EN Di 13.05.2025 07:20:57 I just posted "I know their policies on Israel are not good." But Trump is everything Netanyahu ever wanted. And spreading the false idea that Democrats use racial slurs helps Trump - and Netanyahu. I know that wasn't your intent. So I think it is worth pointing out that your rhetorical flourish could have some unintentional consequences, because I think you would want to avoid those. |
