Pinning colonialism on liberals is very low effort. It shows a profound lack of understanding.
The Democratic party cannot do anything until after the election and can only make a positive difference if they win big in Congress as well.
I really can’t get behind trying to make liberals into a whipping boy. It really reeks of whataboutism and propaganda designed to prevent liberals and progressives from making a difference by souring people against them.
Just as a thought experiment imagine protesting against and lobbying a Democratic President and Congress over a Republican President and Congress about the treatment of Palestinians.

Everything else you said I can agree with though.
I did say I’d have titled it Colonizers not Liberals.
For sure, was not trying to pin that on you. Just reiterating my critique of the post.
