Former democratic party activists are organizing Muslims and Arab-Americans in Swing states to vote against Biden with the demand that he support a ceasefire in Gaza.

I'll allow them a little bit of electoralism this time.

I can tell ya that my DSA chapter says voting for Biden is a vote for democracyagony-shivering

Mine is discussing only voting for candidates who publicly and unequivocally support ceasefire and ending military support for Israel, down to local officials.

My area has a large Arab & Muslim population though. Local Muslim organizers have been very clear on this stance already. At one rally, an iman said there was only one elected worth voting for in the whole county

That's a good idea.

Lot of disagreement over it, so I don't think we'll have chapter wide consensus. However, the majority of active members seem swayed by the argument.

That's great.
