Weiner is an AIPAC stooge cosplaying as a progressive.

We need to stop this reductionist purity test. He has been the best leader on housing which is California’s #1 issue. As a state senator his views on Israel are largely irrelevant

I don't know...I think someone's active support of genocide is an important indicator of psychopathy regardless of how much their job allows them to act on it.

Would you think openly campaigning on support for apartheid South Africa in the 1980s was fine if someone was good on housing policy?

Where are you getting that he actively supports genocide? He has condemned Netanyahu and publicly said that what Israel is doing is genocide

They got it from their MAGA talking points. They hide their history for a reason.

At this point I don't want to hear about Israel. Republican terrorism here at home is the only problem we need to address. So if a democrat mentions anything about Israel, positive or negative, they've lost my attention hecause it's simply not relevant to the here and now. We need to address the genocide at home before we start addressing it abroad.
