This is why democrats lost. They don't care what their base wants.

[–] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 57 points 2 days ago (7 children)

The republicans fear their base, the democrats loathe their base.

[–] Draces@lemmy.world 51 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Republicans definitely loathe their base

[–] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 day ago

Maybe, but the fear prevents them from expressing as much; they regularly change their positions and messaging to match whatever the rabid hogs that make up the core of their base are baying for.

Meanwhile democrats see it as a virtue to stand up to their base. West Wing has done irreparable damage to their brains.

Did DNC lose if most pro Israel candidate won?

[–] RymrgandsDaughter@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Exactly, this is why Chuck and Jefferies are making these plays while AOC is literally campaigning with an Independent candidate.

This is why Marshals weren't sent after Trump

This is why no Cases against election tampering were brought up. And no recount was called.

This is why Korne, these ridiculous illegal deportations, and near complete obliteration of the federal government is allowed.

Because Kamala could not have gotten away with letting Israel go hog wild like this. Corpo Dems can save face by saying that was Trump!

But Schumer is an idiot and he basically admitted that what Netanyahu is doing is what the Corpo Dems wanted. Between his goofy ass book tour and his "My job is to make sure the DNC stays pro-Isreal" it's all laid out in the open.

He's hoping the strangle hold idea that "we can't make or split the party" will keep the party together and behind his leadership. But if AOC said tomorrow that she was starting a new party because that DNC leadership will no longer oppose Trump and laid out proofs. I'd jump ship immediately. I'm hoping she and other get enough momentum that the party can fracture. Because that is the only way to get the country back, a complete rejection of Corpos.

You can't even become a candidate if you haven't bowed down on that AIPAC stage pledging allegiance and unconditional support.

Someone asked me how much I liked Comrade Chuck. I could only blink

[–] cooperativesrock@lemm.ee 27 points 1 day ago

He is not considered left by actual leftist Americans. We know he's a corporate shill.

Anyone got a non-paywalled source for this? Chucky’s not usually this mask-off

Thanks for the ladder @Gem

President Trump accused him of being “a Palestinian” who was “not Jewish anymore.” A few days later, Schumer decided to postpone his book tour after joining Republicans to support a stopgap spending bill to avoid a government shutdown

And they say women are too emotional to be in office 🙄

A Jew stands up for his people regardless of the cost, and regardless of the politics of it. On this, Schumer has acquitted himself bravely.

So move to Israel if you want to stand up for them. They'll give you land.

Must be tricky getting lefties to support a fascist religious ethno-state responsible for killing 50000 children in the past year alone.

If he was serious about that aim, wouldn't he be trying to stop the Palestinian genocide? That's a big factor in why so many people no longer support Israel. Bombing hospitals and daycares is never going to be popular with "your" base, Chuck.

[–] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 day ago

The whole "point" of the Zionist project is to consolidate and expand the Israeli state. The plan has always been to erase Palestine. Stopping the genocide is, in essence, anti-Isarel.

My sole job as an elected representative is socially engineering acceptance for a foreign population.

I don't think this is the flex he thinks it is.

Has he tried convincing Netentahu to not do a genocide? That'd be a lot easier than convincing a bunch of folks that they should support a genocide

Money talks. According to Open Secrets he received $1,727,974 from pro-Israel lobbyists

Keeping the world pro Isreal should really be Benjamin Netanyahu's job. Obviously he's not doing that job though.

For establishment dems sticking with israel was always more important to them than beating trump, and chucky still cares more about israel than helping americans oppose trump's policies. The dem establishment is such a thorough failure that I hope it goes extinct

Listen we, the Democrats, are pro insider trading and baby killing. If you have a problem with blowing up a hospital full of poor people, then this just isn't the party for you. Fuck you.

Was this guy born in the US? He's like the most obvious Mossad plant ever. He's literally admitting to it.

When he says that's his job, he means he makes more money doing that than he does doing his "other" "real" job.

[–] Ghosthacked@lemm.ee 16 points 17 hours ago

Apparently the survival of America isn't as important.

His job is to pin up the carcass of America to be stripped to the bone while carving out his little bit before the cult fully takes over.

When the feeding is over, he'll just catch a plane flight and get out of the country if things get really bad.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 16 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

is he trying to be a comedian like his cousin amy schumer? its also the same buzzwords fetterman used it, aka PRO-AIPAC words. as soon as schumer said "the left" you know hes a right winger.

[–] RymrgandsDaughter@lemmy.world 15 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

This is why Dems struggle, despite all this bullshit because the leadership is these ancient stupid fucks.

I hate chuck

I hate Netanyahu

I hate the genocide to human trafficking pipeline they have going on.

like what the fuck is that

Anti-Catholics in the 1960s: "You can't elect JFK to the Presidency! He'll bend his knee to the Pope!"

Liberal Democrats in the 2020s: "We're bending our knee to the Likkud party chairman".

[–] FireAtWill@lemmy.world 13 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

The pro-Israel propaganda machine is finally starting to falter. What sealed the deal for me is AIPAC going around getting the states to outlaw Israel being boycotted.

Maybe one should hand him the job description, and have him read it again. He seems to have forgotten what his job actually is.

That's always been my problem with Israel, America writes them blank checks on the regular and even funds their single payer healthcare plans, meanwhile actual citizens of America get table scraps, but only if the Government is filling particularly generous

Isn't that just treason even if it's an ally? I can't imagine any European leader ever saying "my job is to work for our ally" I publicly - them are guillotine words

[–] WhatSay@slrpnk.net 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The only thing I take issue with here is the notion his constituents are leftists. His constituency is the entire state of NY. He should represent everyone sadly he just represents Wall Street and AIPAC’s interests.
