President Joe Biden’s support for the Israeli military offensive in Gaza mixed with student anger over police crackdowns on anti-war campus protests are complicating the work of Democratic youth groups trying to engage classmates and other Generation Z voters ahead of this year’s election.
Not a binary proposition. Support Israel and lose voters, abandon Israel and lose more and different voters. Diplomacy is hard. Politics is hard.
Part of the reason it’s hard in this particular situation is bad actors pretending that geopolitics can be reduced to a soundbyte and that the problem is simple and easy.
So you’d rather support genocide and lose voters than not support genocide and gain voters?

Think you can do better? Run for president.
If Biden stops supporting Netanyahu’s genocide, will he lose your vote?
EDIT: disregard. You answered elsewhere before I noticed.
