3. Apparently you missed the part about EIGHT per cent of Democrats supporting Israel's war on Gaza.

Those Dems voting to give more OFFENSIVE weapons to a war criminal government puts our party in an extremely negative light on the issue with a staggeringly high percentage of our own voters, and also independent voters.

Fuck Republicans. I have zero expectations about the fascist scum to ever do the right thing. But I do want OUR own Party to not join in with them. I do want those Dems to vote the way the extraordinarily high number of our voters want them to vote and to not further arm a war criminal government.

That is hardly an unrealistic stance IMHO, but your mileage may vary.
