Pull the support and impose sanctions.
"Now in the Democratic Party,
because the mantle of the Democratic Party became identity politics at its base like the Black Lives Matter movement and all kindred movements like that, they had adopted Palestine as a cause.
It's true.
And then when October 7 happened and thereafter the genocide in Gaza, that base now was energized by Palestine, because already they were supportive of the cause. And that created the big split in the party now. Where the leadership doesn't know what to do, the Biden, Schumer, before Nancy Pelosi, that leadership doesn't know what to do, because it created this monster. Namely it invested in the identity politics and now the identity politics is saying, "well Israel too is a settler colonial state that was part of identity politics, Israel is oppressing the Palestinian identity".
And so in a way the identity politics backfired on the Democratic Party because the leadership is deeply entrenched, both ideologically and financially, its deeply entrenched in supporting Israel.
But the base of the Democratic Party, because it was created on the ideology of identity politics, the base is totally committed to Palestine.
And so as I said it backfired on the party because the base had appropriated Palestine as its cause… and the elite level never had adopted Palestine. It was a fake social justice. It was social justice without class. What happened was they didn't really care whether the base was pro-Palestine because the cause seemed dead… and then on October 7 it wasn't over.
Every day it's evident that the Biden Administration is in a huge mess. The whole base, because of the identity politics - that's the irony - is in revolt against the leadership. And the leadership created the identity politics in order to get a base to replace the white working class."
