    Another reading of the election is that people were unwilling to crawl over the bodies of dead Palestinians to vote for a choice between maintaining the genocide or increasing it.

    I don’t particularly agree with that reasoning, but I understand it. Voters carry some blame, but it’s ridiculous to say that it’s mostly or even significantly the fault of voters. It’s primarily an issue with the electoral system and the political parties within it.

      Really? It’s worthy of ridicule to say voters are responsible for the results of their votes? Sophistry.
