Your choices in the Michigan Primary is: Uncommitted or Genocide Joe

The Majority Report Youtube comment analysis

It’s so tedious but, the Brogressive Left have found their reason not to vote for Joe Biden in 2024.  Israeli atrocities will be the wedge Republicans and Russia use to steal the 2024 election.

The Majority Report posted a video last night about 9pm Central Time, about President Biden's appearance on the Seth Meyers show and in the next two hours over 700+ bots descended upon it to smear President Biden as "Genocide Joe" or call him a War Criminal, as well as claiming Biden's brain is mush.  The bots also had to declare Ukrainian funding a crime because rightwing talking point, that money should be used here to help the homeless!

At least... I am hoping the comments were from bots because if they are from actual real human leftists in the United States, well we're in trouble.

The America Left is a quirky bunch but, despite their protestations Left America have never been an ally of the Democratic Party in advancing the progressive cause or implementing social democracy.  Never.  Instead the minuscule America left has consistently aligned with Republicans in attacking Democrats, especially Democratic Presidents Biden and Obama and candidates like Amy Klobuchar, Pete Buttigeg, Hillary Clinton.  Why? Who knows, but what is known is Leftists find some reason to vote against Democrats every time.

And I’m not talking about the Reactionary pretenders who garner a left following only to Stan outright fascists, Joe Rogan, Glenn Greenwald, Matt Taibbi, Bari Weiss, Tim Poole, Liz & Matt Bruenig and so many others who easily dupe the Brogressives into adopting rightwing talking points and horseshoe themselves into supporting Trump.

We didn't support you before
And we won't support you again

Jill fucking Stein, who adoringly broke bread with criminals and thugs, Mike Flynn and Vladimir Putin, had the gall to claim Americans should vote against President Biden.  Stein is still basking in the glow of defeating Hillary Clinton in 2016 and then duping $7,000,000 out of the American Left to investigate the election.  She’s technically running again…

Back in 2020 the Rose Twitter decided by April to performatively declare they would not vote for Biden and since then Bidens record hasn’t budged them from their anti Democratic Party stance. 

It’s disappointing that Biden ending the drone strike program was met with silence from the antiwar left.  Even worse when Joe pulled the US out of Afghanistan causing the Corporate Media throw a tantrum Biden received scant support from the Left.  

Biden's continuing student loan forgiveness has not been met with rounds of applause from the Left but snide dismissal and petty complaints of it not being good enough.

Now is this because the American left is tiny, ineffective and detached from reality?  Or is it that so many Russian trolls, bots and rightwingers pretending to be leftists on-line in order to sow dissent, set the narrative?

So, in response to the brutal IDF bombing and terror campaign in Gaza, the comfortable cosplay Revolutionaries here sought to send "Genocide Joe" a message by getting Michigan to vote for Uncommitted instead of him.

DEARBORN, Mich. -- Leaders of Listen to Michigan, one of the groups behind the push to cast "uncommitted" votes in the state's Democratic primary to protest President Joe Biden's stance on the Israel-Hamas war, said on Wednesday that they felt victorious after their movement garnered more than 100,000 ballots.

"We organized and ... Michigan voters last night sent a clear message to President Biden that he needs to call for an immediate, permanent cease-fire and he needs to stop funding the Israeli military's war crimes. Our message has been clear," said Abbas Alawieh, the group's political strategist and spokesperson.

Listen to Michigan launched three weeks ago and organizers said on Wednesday that their "diverse" supporters went beyond Arab and Muslim Americans and those who disagree with Biden's views on Israel. It includes voters upset over student loans, rent and health care, they said.

The group also told reporters on Wednesday that they believe their movement is spreading across the country. They said advocates from Minnesota and Washington state have reached out, seeking support for similar efforts in their states.  Listen to Michigan plans on accepting, they said.

Alexa Garcia is one of the 20 Washington state volunteers who flew to Michigan over the weekend. Garcia spoke with ABC News at a polling location in Dearborn on Tuesday and said she was already weary of what she claimed were the Biden administration's broken promises.

The war in Gaza convinced her that Biden did not deserve her vote, she said.

"There's a lot of things that had me hesitant to vote for [Biden] again this November, but definitely this has sealed it. If he doesn't change his ways, I won't vote for him," she said.

I'm not going to call anyone in the American-Arab community dumb or short-sighted for trying to undercut Biden because Trump is a pudding-brained fascist wannabe.  Or insult Representative Rashida Tlaib, since as a Palestinian, the IDF, Likud fanatics, and Settler fascists in the West Bank actions direct harm her people.

But, claiming Biden has broken promises on healthcare and student loans are just outright lies.

Again I’m telling you if we are to avoid the Republican Dictatorship we’re going to have to do it ourselves. The guard rails which barely restrained Trump during his 1st term were knocked down fully on Jan6th.  And the Left in America, is so fucking angry that Trump is such an over-the-top buffoon now, because let's be real, the American Left voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020.  

I don’t ascribe to Doomerism but it would be so depressingly fitting that the illegal terrorist actions of the Israel government and war crimes of the IDF will provide just the right amount of voter suppression to allow the Fascist Republicans to "win" the Presidency the 3rd time in 25 years while getting fewer overall votes.

Harvard Students issue factual statement about Israel and Palestine. Republican Extremists Attack

Republicans love when Extremists attack.  They fvcking loooooooooove it.  Republicans love when innocent people die in Terrorist Attacks because then they get to Bash the Left with their rhetorical war club and accuse Democrats of Aiding Terrorists.

Because of the Tea Party lunatics, the cartoonish Trump criminality and treason, and the non-stop Anti-American antics of Greene, Santos, Boebert, Tubberville, Hawley et al you had forgotten how bad the Republicans were under George W(orst POTUS Ever) Bush.  Hadn't you?

For instance, convicted criminal and drunken evangelical Tom DeLay scuttled aid to Palestine Authority in 2005.  Undercutting the Palestine Authority in 2005 aided who?  Hamas; who "won" elections in Gaza in 2006 and have never had another.  Who else has aided Hamas?  Why Benjamin Netanyahu. 

“Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas,” Netanyahu told his Likud party’s Knesset members in March 2019. “This is part of our strategy"

For years Netanyahu was a "Friend of Hamas" because Hamas and Likud are Extremists who love and need each other.  Netanyahu ignored Gaza because he was busy helping settlers confiscate land in the West Bank and eliminating Supreme Court barriers to his fascist rule.  The two state solution died when Netanyahu had Yitzak Rabin assassinated.

“Israel is not killing the Hamas leadership, they’re not getting revenge out of Hamas. There is collective punishment for 2.2 million people. Look what’s happening towards the Palestinians in the West Bank, to us, the Palestinian Israelis that live inside the state of Israel. Our lives are in danger because of all the extreme-right fascists.”  Sami Abou Shehadeh said.

The Hamas multi-pronged attack is just the balm rightwing extremists across the globe needed.  Anyone attempting to analyze the incredibly fraught Israel/Palestine situation, express understanding of the shared grief, bring humanity or nuance into this is immediately attacked.  Especially, if you are in the West and you share even a scintilla of compassion for the plight of Palestinian civilians expect to be savagely denounced by Republicans. 

So, in response to 34 Harvard student groups putting out an accurate if controversial statement 

We, the undersigned student organizations, hold the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.  

Today’s events did not occur in a vacuum. For the last two decades, millions of Palestinians in Gaza have been forced to live in an open-air prison. Israeli officials promise to “open the gates of hell,” and the massacres in Gaza have already commenced. Palestinians in Gaza have no shelters for refuge and nowhere to escape. In the coming days, Palestinians will be forced to bear the full brunt of Israel’s violence.  

The apartheid regime is the only one to blame.

properly ascribing blame to the Israeli treatment of Gaza, Republican extremists pounced;

Elise Stefanik, a Republican US Representative from New York and a Harvard graduate, called the statement “abhorrent and heinous” for excusing the “slaughter of innocent women and children”.  

I will note that the deaths of children in Gaza from indiscriminate missile strikes originating in Israel do not engender the same response.

Republican US Senator Ted Cruz, a Harvard Law School graduate, wrote on Xitter: “What the hell is wrong with Harvard?”

This is a good question as they were not clairvoyant enough to see the odious Traitor Cruz would turn into.

Harvard President Claudine Gay and senior leadership including 15 deans issued a statement on Monday that said they were “heartbroken by the death and destruction unleashed by the attack by Hamas that targeted citizens in Israel this weekend”.

See! We can neatly blame all the future death and destruction on the original Hamas attack and thus Israeli war crimes in Gaza are actually the fault of the people being killed by bunker buster bombs and the cutting off of the water supply.

It's nigh-impossible for anyone in the West, especially in the US, to criticize Israel. Even when such criticism is wholly accurate.  Israelis, however, are not shy about placing the blame upon the occupation and inhuman conditions the Israeli governments have subjected the Palestinian people.  Here in the US, Republicans have nothing to offer the American peoples thus they see this continuing War in Palestine/Israel as see an opportunity to attack President Biden and the Democratic Party and further endanger and degrade the United States.  While the Republican Party  isn't in "league" with Hamas, the Likud Fascists, Vladimir Putin, all these extremists know that their interests are aligned and that each of them is able to wield outsized power by undermining peace, democracy, and liberal society.

So as the death toll rises and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza gets worse, expect Republicans to get more vociferous in their support of the Netanyahu's and the IDF war crimes.  All you have to do is remember how fervently the Republicans defended Abu Ghraib, waterboarding, "enhanced interrogation", Blackwater crimes in Iraq, and every other atrocity committed by the US in the name of the Global War on Terror.
