    Don’t get me wrong: stopping Israel from genociding, colonizing, and otherwise persecuting the Palestinians is an absolute moral imperative. But in terms of being a political imperative, this poll is not saying what Truthout wants to pretend it is.

    Why is Truthout.org trying to downplay/distract from the economic populism?

      I wouldn’t read it that way.

      Being instrumental doesn’t mean being the only important factor, and Truthout clearly mentions this is the third most popular reason, not the first.
