Sure, I guess what frustrates me is that they're effectively saying that having Trump is office than having another Democrat, because of some abstract "long game" that they think will happen. It's honestly pretty fucking dismissive of people who are affected by Trump's regressive policies. "It sucks that you got deported but maybe in fifteen years you'll thank me because we will have a proper progressive in office to fix problems that are really important but apparently impossible for us to actually enumerate with any kind of consistency".

> It's honestly pretty fucking dismissive of people who are affected by Trump's regressive policies Like the Gazans! The American Palestinian movement has been 100% about the protesters themselves. Not the Palestinians. The Defund the Police and Chesa crowd found a new cause to ruin. Folks who have never been to both countries confidently redrawing borders on another continent, the new Sykes and Picot.
