Begging leftists who would never consider themselves to be antisemitic to make sure they don’t accidentally sound that way when criticizing Josh Shapiro, the only Jew in the running to be Kamala’s VP. Support for Israel is the Democratic Party position and all the potential VPs have the same basic position. So if you’re only screaming “genocide” at the Jew, well, that’s something you should maybe sit with for a minute and think more deeply about. Your Jewish friends might appreciate it.

My first choice (which I posted about here on Mastodon two weeks ago when he was the other Jewish candidate considered very much in the running) was JB Pritzker. He's still my first choice. Thank you for giving me some language to talk about my discomfort with Shapiro in a way that's not alienating to you
And though it shouldn't need to be said, I will vigorously support Kamala no matter who she chooses
