this is an articulated policy that is far to the right of even the fascists who are actually in congress. her foreign policy advisor was quoted as attending a pro-Israel demonstration in 2024. so she’s a Palestinian candidate with a zionist foreign policy advisor. if i’m being charitable, this mostly strikes me as an ignorant young person being easily swayed by an AIPAC advisor to their own detriment. it’s almost certainly too late for her to make it out of this campaign, but it might still be interesting to see if she doubles down or hard pivots away from this. the statements given so far from her campaign are likely written by the same zionist foreign policy guy.
She doubled down lol
Someone on this site called this out when she first started.
We are all Cassandra
In fact, the local organization I am a part of regularly has to be like, “Flakes, you were absolutely right” and they still won’t believe me the first time
maybe you should take some of these
What do these people think is going to happen to Ukraine’s ethnic Russians if they’re forced back into Ukraine? Let’s not even get into the west’s ongoing pillaging of the former USSR wherever they can get away with it, which definetely isn’t what this is all about. Why do they feel so strongly about this situation they also have no interest in examining?
I feel like I’m going crazy because I can remember widely televised events, like the collapse of the USSR, which happened within the lifetimes of most of the political class.
What do these people think is going to happen to Ukraine’s ethnic Russians if they’re forced back into Ukraine?
They will not think anymore. The ideology will be changed and Ukraine will become a distant, hard to remember memory just like Libya, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Yugoslavia…
Do not underestimate the ability of settlers to be able to compartmentalize the world so effectively that all violence becomes buzzing static.
which happened within the lifetimes of most of the political class.
Don’t also underestimate the ability of settlers to hold a grudge and be paranoid.
It’s fine, because they don’t consider Russians to be people.
What do these people think is going to happen to Ukraine’s ethnic Russians if they’re forced back into Ukraine?
Exactly what they want to happen.
You don’t even need the neo-con enemy at the gates fluff she’s a Zionist collaborator and a career opportunist. Average democrat youth in the US.
You don’t understand, she only supports the dream of Palestinian self-determination, as in, she wants them to keep dreaming.
Ah, neocon democrats, always there when you need them to slaughter someone with nationalized resources
Cia-kitted out deathsquads for opposers of genocide, reduced discount on deathbots for perpetrators of genocide, truly crazy work here.
I envision a two-part credible deterrence plan that turns Taiwan into a “porcupine” too costly for the PRC to invade, by providing them with weapons to defend themselves and committing to actually defending the island if they do invade.
deterrence plan is just doing what the US has been doing as policy but with none of the political subterfuge that made the strategy consistent in the first place?The PLAN is just going to form a blockade surrounding Taiwan and watch Taiwanese society collapse. This is what happens when 98% of your energy has to be imported.
Ah finally only 90% Hitler candidate
Oh look, another 99% Hitler candidate in the name of “progressivism” woo!
They have to be manufacturing these at this point. Like they call up each other and ask if they have failchildren who want to do politics for the glamor and have a jobs program for other failchildren.
Don’t ask a man his salary, a woman her age, a company what they were doing in the 30’s, or a western ‘progressive’ what their foreign policy is
So we’re invading Tel Aviv to liberate poor Israelis and their oppressed Arab minorities from the Likud regime?
No we are ending antisemitism, which is just as important as stopping a genocide. We can’t stop a genocide correctly if we are antisemitic or we are just as bad as the authoritarians.
I’m for stopping antiSemitism, FYI
spoiler
Arabs and Palestinians are Semites
What a clown
I swear USAian “progressives” live in a vibes based reality. Zero consistency between their domestic and foreign policy positions.
She posted an update on her bluesky account around 5 hours ago and I don’t think the clarification helped. She denies being an interventionist and says that she fired the advisor from her team. However she says that she still wants the US to sell arms to Ukraine and Taiwan. She even made a statement that US should end the “strategic ambiguity” policy on China, to adopt a firm Taiwan separatist policy.
You can’t really put her into a box because her opinions are uniquely incorrect. She was endorsed by AIPAC Tracker, the anti-AIPAC group, on February 26 2026. She dominated the primary debate with anti-Israel positions. During the debate, she mocked AOC’s “offensive vs defensive weapons” defense of Israel spending and then the very next day says that the US needs to provide defense to Taiwan. The logic is incoherent.
She really is doing vibes. The closest thing I can compare it to is Vaushism. I compare her to Vaush because they are both very online and Vaush had a positon around 7-8 years ago that he believed that the US should invade Israel to protect the Palestinians. Similarly, Kat seems to think that Israel’s crimes are somehow separate from the US. I think this way of thinking comes from a delusion that the US has ever been a benevolent force around the world.
It’s actually relatively safe to accept couple of dozens anti entity dems, who support all other foreign policy imperialism (including venezuela ffs), then, when votes to maybe stop selling arms to entity inevitably fails, but to sell to taiwan succeeds you can say see even leftists agree.
Real interventionism position is supplying long range missiles to houthis and palestinians, for some mysterious reason i dont think self determination work there for her
This is what no anti-imperialism does to a motherfucker
we are never going to vote our way out of this foreign policy. All democrats are cowardly, afraid to speak out against unpopular policies and are therefore controlled opposition, at best. Bloodthirsty cooperators, at worst.
hit by boomerang
wtf? that hurt. Better get rid of this thing
throws boomerang
Here’s hoping this Mermel chud is misrepresenting Kat, because she’s had some decent takes, electoralism aside.
