    You can complain, but the convention is not the time and place for it. Trying to disrupt the convention to get headlines only helps Trump.

    Projecting drama because the majority of Americans including Democrats may not agree with you is not productive.

      So apparently there isn’t a time to protest the blue party of capitalism.

        You are free to protest, but the convention is neither the time or place.

        Democrats are trying to win a domestic election not express support for foreign groups who are deeply unpopular with wide swaths of the US population.

          If they are trying to win a domestic election, they best appeal to the people to vote for them. If there are a lot of people that have made their voice clear that supporting genocide means no vote, maybe the dems should evaluate their support for genocide. Since that is how democracy works.

          Fully absorbing and robotically reciting the “time, place and manner” restrictions that have made free speech de facto illegal

          not express support for foreign groups who are deeply unpopular with wide swaths of the US population.

          The only difference between a democrat and a full-on fucking nazi is this thin veneer between “We’re murdering them because we want to” and “We’re murdering them because we can’t alienate the nazis”

          you are are EXACTLY the same except for that one piece of fake-ass hand wringing.

            Ohhh wow that escalated quickly. So you’ve come to the conclusion that Democrats are just Nazis with different badges now.

            I’d love to hear more!

              What’s left to say? You support genocide. You are a nazi.

              Down to the sneering vapid reply that does nothing but mock the observation without addressing it. You’re identical to a 4chan nazi even culturally.

                    No please go on. Your position is fascinating. I just want to understand the logical leap that your mind took to equate Nazis with modern day Democrats and their positions.

      The convention is the best time to do it! That’s when cameras are on and you can get your message out and be sure the Party sees it. If protest is productive at all it’s when eyes are on it. Disruptions are the point.

        And there it is, you have no interest in seeing Trump defeated. You don’t seem to have any interest in dialogue either. It’s the attention for a cause that has little to do with winning a national election that you want. Your movement now wants to hold the Democratic convention hostage so you can get your message out.

        For the sake of winning the election and not seeing Trump as president, I hope fail publicly and miserably at getting it.

          And you have no interest in ending genocide. It’s an irrelevant distraction to you, you don’t want a dialogue about ending arms sales to a genocidal apartheid regime. You just want everyone to shut up and vote to stop Trump. You do not care about anything else.

          I absolutely do not give a single fuck about trump. I care about the dissolution of the genocidal state of israel and the entire Knesset tried for crimes against humanity.
