I wonder how the "can't vote for Kamala because of Gaza" folks are feeling now

Well I felt too many things were being conflated.
Neither I nor anyone I know (people who are sympathetic to the Jewish community and aghast at the ravages to Palestine-why is that such a hard position? Sympathy for humans on both sides?) backed the protest vote or failed to see the Oct 7 attack as horrifying.

But some of it seemed a little hard hearted towards the Palestinian people. Like not having a speaker at the DNC.

It’s all so predictably awful if you zoom out-it will devastate Gaza and be used to scapegoat Jewish people and stoke antisemitism. It’s such a victory for any actual antisemites.
As someone with friendly feelings towards the Jewish community (I mostly identify as an environmentalist and as with most leftist causes Jewish people are disproportionately represented among greens/animal rights supporters and this war stresses people whose primary causes are not human-centric).

A whole population of Palestinians will be wiped out of existence and it will be used to scapegoat Jewish people and give liberal Jewish people PTSD therefore helping the cynical, mercenary far right everywhere.

Humans..very logical species..it’s hard for people close to it to overcome passions, but I do disapprove of these divisions being stoked rather than healed by more neutral people who let their biases (and I see it on the farther left which I follow, and can be as unsympathetic to Jewish people).
A very successful exercise in divide and rule.
