[TheRealNews] Except this time it’s in support of genocide, rather than trying to stop one.
| About that genocide: Israel dropped possibly 100,000 tons of explosives on Gaza since 10/7/2023, reportedly destroying 60-70% of the territory, and Hamas claims about 79,000 Gazans were killed out of a pre-10/7 population of about 2.2 million. That’s 3.5% of the population killed. During this period, according to Hamas reports, about 140,000 babies were born in Gaza, meaning the population grew. During the Nazi Holocaust, the Nazis and their fellow European Jew haters killed 63% of Europe’s 9.5 million Jews. The Jewish birthrate was functionally zero, because in the concentration camps the men and women were separated, and when babies wre found, they were immediately killed. The situation in Gaza can’t even be called an ethnic cleansing, because both Hamas and Egypt are working to keep them from leaving. But do go on, O Real News writer. |
Suddenly, for centrists, refusing to support Democrats and withdrawing their support isn’t much of an offense, and indeed could be something worthy of “serious conversations.”
Over the past few weeks, progressive and self-identified democratic socialist candidates are racking up major victories in New York, Pennsylvania, and Colorado, and leading in polls in Wisconsin and Michigan.
| That’s all primary stuff, which attracts the most radical and committed of the Democrats. The centrists tend to ignore all the political stuff until a few weeks before the main election in November. |
In response, centrist pundits, politicians, and funders are increasingly threatening to boycott, leave, or otherwise announce their uncommitment to the Democratic Party. But unlike the Uncommitted Movement of 2024—which sought to use their leverage as voters to pressure the Biden, and ultimately Harris, campaign into adopting the both morally and politically correct position of ending support for genocide
| …the polomicist means Israel, in case you wondered, dear Reader… |
—the emerging Centrist Uncommitted movement is animated, in large part, by their support for genocide and lockstep support for Israel.
| It’s a comfort to know the entire Democratic Party, except for Senator John Fetterman, has not actually gone mad. Only the noisy and pusillanimous parts of it. |
First up is perennial centrist sage James Carville, whose claim to fame is winning an election 34 years ago and spending the next several decades occupying cable news panels or calling in from gaudy pink mansions to scold Democrats for never being sufficiently centrist. He has one note, and he was going to elevate it after the recent wave of Left electoral wins, telling his podcast listeners after Mamdani-backed candidates in New York won 8 for 8 last month, “I actually do think it’s time for Democrats to talk the S-word: schism.” He added that some DSA-aligned candidates “have no place in the Democratic party” and, of the broader coalition: “I’m not in that fucking political party.”
| On the Republican side of the line President Trump led the Republicans in cutting off the Jew-hating Tucker Carlson/Candace Owens/Nick Fuentes end of the spectrum, and now many of those cut off have decided to vote Democrat going forward. We’ve reached the time of setting boundaries — it would be truly lovely if the Democrats joined in. |
Did this brazen act of disloyalty to the party result in any condemnations or scandals, like the meltdown over streamer Hasan Piker’s insistence he would not support Gavin Newsom if he won the nomination? No, because the loyalty demands only go left, never right, as we will learn.
We have evidence elsewhere of a pending Centrist Uncommitted movement backed by (far more consequentially than media whining) a donor strike—especially if anti-zionist Abdul El-Sayed wins his Democratic primary on August 4 in Michigan. “Some Jewish Democratic leaders in the state,” reports the Times of Israel, “are prepared to go even further.”:
“Several prominent Metro Detroit Jews who have traditionally fundraised for Democrats are also planning fundraisers for the presumptive GOP nominee, former US Rep. Mike Rogers, as a ‘hedge.’… Others affirmed the idea that the Jewish Democratic donor class, feeling abandoned by the party, would back Rogers.”
