'Uncommitted' Movement Brutally Roasted For Post-Election Statement: 'Ask Jill Stein to Help?'

Alex Griffing Nov 12th, 2024, 5:01 pm

The leaders of the “uncommitted” movement received a fierce backlash online this week as they posted a statement regarding Donald Trump’s election victory and a last-minute call for President Joe Biden to take action in Israel’s war against Hamas.

The “uncommitted” movement protested Biden’s policies regarding Israel and the U.S. continued support for the country’s military operation against Hamas. The movement urged Democrats to vote “uncommitted” during the Democratic primaries and refused to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of the November election.

......snip.....

In the lengthy statement, the group called on the Biden administration to “put an end to the flow of weapons that fuel this cycle of violence. If they do not, the Democratic Party risks straddling our coalition of voters with the ever-increasing weight of a legacy intertwined with endless war and suffering. Now is the time to listen, to reflect, and to forge a path that truly embodies the values we profess to represent-values that resonate deeply with every community feeling unheard and betrayed.”

but that's what's going to happen, in part because of these uncommitted people. They chose to give the election to Trump and now, Netanyahu can just kill everyone without any pushback.

And it won't just be Gaza, it will be the West Bank and probably most of Lebanon as well. Heck, he might decide they need Jordan as well.

Uncommitted didn't endorse anyone, though, including Stein, and in fact recommended that people not vote third-party.

Totally out of fucks to give. And they'll be the first ones whining about how unfair it all is when they're being deported, and Gaza has been turned into a mass grave. And they'll still blame the Democrats for "abandoning" them/

The uncommitteds have no ammunition left. Not implying that Dems don’t care about Gaza, but the election results are not going to influence Biden’s efforts over the next 2 months.

You helped make your genocide lies perhaps come to fruition and it will happen to shrugs and even cheers.
