Survey results showed ‘strong evidence‘ that endless weapons giveaways to Israel may cost Republicans the midterms and the 2028 presidential race

Snip:

The poll of more than 3,200 voters covered Georgia, Iowa, Maine, North Carolina, Ohio, and Texas, whose contests are expected to determine control of the Senate in the November midterms.

Support for blocking the bomb transfers started at 51 percent in North Carolina and reached 65 percent in Maine, while opposition stayed at or below 31 percent across all six states.

Voters in every state also backed cutting $3.3 billion in US taxpayer-funded weapons transfers to Israel by wide margins, from 22 points in Georgia and Ohio to 40 points in Maine.

Respondents across all six states further said Trump’s illegal war on Iran serves Israel’s interests more than those of the US.

        they don’t oppose it, they say they oppose it. if 46% allegedly opposing entity amerikans stopped buying hp products, it would be seen in quarterly and yearly reports, as it isn’t, so they aren’t

          hp products are mostly bought in mass quantities by institutional level buyers like corporations and schools are they not? These things are politically and economically captured by Zionists or just people who don’t care at all and are only profit seeking empty vessels for capital.

          I get your point generally for consumer-facing products like McDonalds or Starbucks. The only places those corporations suffered was muslim nations and populations, which does show that popular boycotting can have some impact if collectively adhered to. I generally don’t think think these types of efforts are too effective, but they are something at least. If there’s no organized left though it all tends to just fizzle out.

            and secondly are organizations not filled with people? what’s the difference between buying hp and lenovo. dsa still links google docs, that’s not opposing, they are just little gremlins saying words

              You won’t see me disagreeing much, I have utter contempt for the American hog populace and little faith in disorganized boycotts. I’ll still follow them cause fuck Israel, I don’t like any of these companies anyway but I’m just a small fry.

                but they are organized, there is an organization for them, they aren’t popularized by amerikan allegedly leftist (non-allegedly democrat) propagandists.

                it’s one thing to not know, but dsa has twisted itself into an astonishing pretzel were they say that someone supports bds (but a different one), and worth supporting, but never mention the companies involved (because they farm money form them) and don’t participate itself.

                  when i say ‘organized left’ here I mean unions and political parties. It doesn’t just mean any random institution or group of people or non-profit NGOs or corporations, schools and governments which is the institutional buyer that buys HPs I was previously referring to.

                  DSA is not a party, nor are they principled in any way. BDS is not a party, they are an unelected NGO essentially as far as I know in terms of the decisions on what gets listed and prioritized in targeting. I don’t disagree with their goals or intentions though, and like what they are doing but it’s not enough.

      it might affect their voteing habits. like the harris loss broke on her maintaining biden’s zionism as opposed to lying about it or supporting a slower genocide that libs wouldn’t hear about on the news.
