#Scott Weiner, member of the California state senate and LGBTQ+ advocate was forced to leave a march for Trans rights due to his long-standing denial of Israel's genocide against Palestinian people

>Except, he has recognized Israel’s actions in Palestine as a genocide. Unless I’m missing something.

>>“Too little too late” is a real thing

>He’s gotten lots of money from large aipac donors. Doesn’t recognize the Israeli apartheid, has opposed an arms embargo, and supports censorship.

>>just because you do great things for domestic policies that have meaningful impact to your constituents doesn’t mean I’ll forgive you for having an opinion I disagree with on a conflict we have little or no stake in on the other side of the planet and which you have no influence over.

>Nobody likes tearing down American progressives like other progressives. (Not that his denial is right or good, just observing)

>>It’s become a litmus test of “can you say the obviously bad thing is bad or at the very least acknowledge it?” And if you are responded with silence or the winding answer of saying nothing with a lot of words then it’s obvious they are just an amalgamation of political lobbies in a suit instead of a human being.

>I think this is silly. It’s a march for trans rights, if he supports trans rights then let him march. It just harms the movement to push people out for non related views. Edit: redditors acting insane as usual, analogies about me welcoming Goebells to a march.

>>Purity testing is the new left wing platform and it’s why we got another term of the worst president in US history.
