    to all the people saying talk is cheap, calm down champs. she is not the president yet, she is still a part of the Biden administration and anything she does likely needs to be vetted by them. by saying such she accepts losing the support of certain lobbies which will give her more independence and leeway during her presidency I think. words matter more than you think, especially at the brink of an election, when pretty powerful organizations expect you to say things in a certain way.

      No, fuck that. Words have been wind for four fucking years on this matter and she’s inheriting the seat that the LAST genocider-in-chief had. If you curry favor from genocidal lobbies, you’re a collaborator too, fuck off.
