the vibes have rotten to the core and now withholding for Palestine makes you the much-maligned single issue voter, as if genocide is just a tally on a fucking pro/con balance sheet. People who saw the mass movement and protests on the ground over the past nine months suddenly concern-trolling about no one ever organizing anything and just being nihilists doing nothing while they are doing, in contrast, ‘the bare minimum’. Breaking out reformist thought-terminating cliches and yelling at people with families in Palestine for not immediately being invested and engaged in the campaign of the VP of the current administration that is aiding and abetting the deaths of their loved ones. Total lanyard cultural victory. Americans by and large believe in nothing and have no principles, all they want is eternal 2014.

    2020 all over again. The same people out in the streets that summer dipping their feet into actual radical politics closing ranks around Biden because mainstream media and a bunch of astroturfed tiktoks told them that he has the “most progressive platform of any US presidential candidate in history”, then he’ll (she’ll) be elected and the liberals will all tearfully exclaim “I feel like we’re finally a country again” and ignore anything that happens for the next 4 years until his (her) shittiness becomes unavoidable, then they’ll just find some other ghoul from the ghoul factory to close ranks around.
