A progressive commentary defends refusing to support Democratic candidates who back Israel's war in Gaza, framing it as a moral red line rather than a purity test.

• The core argument: opposing a party over one issue is fair when that issue is genocide.
• It rejects the pressure to fall in line behind any Democrat just to "defeat fascism."
• Pro-Israel figures who threaten to leave the coalition are told to go — their support isn't wanted.
• Media outlets like CNN are mocked for asking why the left no longer backs Israel.

Outlook: Expect the fight over Israel to keep splitting the Democratic base heading into the 2028 primaries.
