Let go of that crap now. Heckling and interrupting a speech was NOT the right thing to do. Neither was staying home on election day just because Harris didn’t voice the exact right opinion on Gaza. We’re in an infinitely worse situation now.
It absolutely was the right thing to do. Legitimizing that asshole by respectfully listening while he barks out lies and bullshit and craps all over America is what’s unacceptable.
Waggling fingers and sternly frowning and politely protesting well out of everyone’s way while not inconveniencing anyone will get us absolutely nowhere.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.”
Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.
Democrats do not listen to or engage with voters. The last time we told them to listen. their response was ‘I’m speaking.’

Anyone that doesn’t see genocide as a red line isn’t entitled to an opinion on politics. Especially if they claim ‘leser evil’
