The “Uncommitted” movement seeking a change in the Democratic Party’s approach to the war in Gaza on Thursday announced it is not ready to support Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris — while urging voters not to back Republican nominee Donald Trump or third-party candidates who could help Trump win the November election.

The “Uncommitted” group “opposes a Donald Trump presidency, whose agenda includes plans to accelerate the killing in Gaza while intensifying the suppression of anti-war organizing,” the statement continues. Additionally, the group is “not recommending a third-party vote in the Presidential election, especially as third party votes in key swing states could help inadvertently deliver a Trump presidency given our country’s broken electoral college system.”

    The genocidiers have us by the balls, folks. Nothing you can do but voice your full throated support for one of them.

    Not only that, you must also shout down anybody who says they don’t want to support genocide. Only full loyalty is acceptable.

    Oh so you’re likely voting dem anyway because you aren’t stupid and/or racist but you also say Harris should abide by US law and stop arms sales to Israel? WOW LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE A TRUMP SUPPORTER HERE BOYS

      It is deeply fucked the way social media has conflated opposing genocide and supporting The Other Team.

      Really reeks of the Bush Era “You’re with us or you’re with the Terrorists!” when it came time to invade Afghanistan and Iraq.

        Literally. Many people seem to have forgotten all the lessons from 9/11 and the clusterfuck that followed

        As far as centrists are concerned, opposition to genocide is the other team.
