I read two pieces in The Atlantic criticizing the far left for supporting Hamas, and the tepid response from the left in general; they weren’t written by MAGAs. But maybe I misunderstood your post.

Tepid response from the left in general? Members of house Democratic caucus have condemned them, the White House press secretary has condemned them, the President, Vice President and Second Gentleman have all condemned them. Repeatedly. And there are plenty of people, like me, who are left of center who have and will continue condemning them. Tepid? How about the response from the elected Rs when Donald Trump hosted two known anti-semites - Kanye West and his Neo-Nazi pal.
My use of “tepid response”, was to re-create the experience of the author, in one of those Atlantic articles. It wasn’t my own opinion, but their narrated experience.

My apologies for misunderstanding.
You make good points though. Sorry I was so terse. I sense we are all on tenterhooks, since last weekend, myself for sure. Be well, Jane.
No worries, GG. You're right: we're all on edge these days. Makes it easy to misunderstand. Take care of yourself, too.
