I’m also cynical enough about the average American’s feelings towards foreign brown people to think that her genocidal Zionism is not what lost her the election. I think her insistence that everything was going fine domestically and her refusal to offer voters any kind of hope for some kind of material relief
I think both are true.
I think even if she didn’t change her domestic policies she would’ve stood a solid chance if she said Biden was doing genocide and she would stop it. The genocide was the top ranked reason for people who didn’t vote who would have voted Democrat.
But I also think she could’ve continued the genocide and won if she had addressed the domestic concerns. I probably would’ve voted for her if the offer was “Genocide continues but we legalized weed and forgave student loans and if you vote for me I’ll give you Medicare for All and 30 million units of public housing.”
But she offered neither. “You get to continue seeing dead children on your phone every day and no your rent will not go down, be grateful little piggy” was the offer. Which unsurprisingly wasn’t a popular message.
