    that can’t vote for a woman.

    That wasn’t the reason and others have already given you receipts. You just can’t stand that your genocide isn’t as popular with Muslims as it is with centrists.

      Fuck Isreal and what they did to the Palestinians. But I’m on the ground here and there were plenty of people that refused to listen to the words straight from Trump’s mouth. They held Muslims for Trump rallies. Their political and spiritual leaders told them to either vote for trump or abstain. They met with the man believing he would not only de-escalate but bring peace when he’s vehemently supported Isreal in the past. Complete stupidity and voting against their best interests. Now they live in fear of ICE stopping by their neighborhoods and sending naturalized citizens back, something unheard of before. Take some responsibility and make the necessary changes. I refuse to accept the Democrats going more conservative on things like gay and women’s rights. Either everyone has rights or no one does, and we are seeing the no one version right now.

        Democrats are already going conservative on trans rights and immigration. You at once condemn other minority populations for refusing to accept the Democrats going more conservative while declaring your own personal red lines.

        Your final declaration sounds like good principle, but if that were true we were already in the “not everyone has rights” category. It just sounds like you have the core rights that you feel that would be too far and then don’t allow other members of the coalition to have and value their own personal core rights.

        What did you expect would happen when centrists ditched the only common cause the party had with Muslims?

        Take some responsibility and make the necessary changes.

        Because the party never fucking will. Ever.

        I refuse to accept the Democrats going more conservative on things like gay and women’s rights.

        Remember that when they do. Because they absolutely will. Resist the temptation to just point to their opponent and excuse everything Democrats do on the grounds that Republicans are worse.
