The phrasing is just bad. Vote them out in the primaries, that's it. After the primaries you vote against the Republicans.

Vote them out in the primaries

"primaries" like the ones we had last year. "Primaries" like the ones the party successfully argued in court that they didn't have to run honestly. "Primaries" that the party doesn't respect the results of when progressives like Mamdani or Fateh win them. "Primaries" that AIPAC bought at least two candidates in last year.

You're gloating because you know that primaries are kabuki.

Except they aren't at all. But that's fine, start a third party and actually win seats in local elections first. Prove a movement can work. Or idk just bitch and moan as Republicans keep winning because you decided to be angry with the Dems and stay home.

Lie to someone who might buy it. I provided examples, you said "nuh uh" and added more gloating that the party only represents netanyahu and two cheneys.

Your suggestion to form my own third party to take on Israel's two parties may as well have been punctuated by laughing like a One Piece villain.
