He’s always been a blowhard.
Discussion
He was good on the pronouns issue but cucked hard to the covid hysteria ar the start of the pandemic
not talking about that. talking about his dumbass opinion of the last two days. he should stick to being obsessed with pronouns
I didn't hear anything the last two days which is why I asked what did he do
ah i understand, we’ll you’re better off being ignorant to it tbh
He’s expressing support for Israel and is calling out antisemitism, which is rampant.
It’s the least offensive thing he’s said, tbh.
antisemitism is awful and i will always stand with my Jewish brothers and sisters against it. anti-zionism is not antisemitism though, and that’s what he doesn’t understand. we can’t ignore the years and years of death against one group, while not being antisemitic. freedom from oppression
Sadly, the line between antisemitism and anti-Zionism is vanishingly thin and just about anyone who walks up to it ends up stepping over.
Bullshit
That's a nonsense talking point from those who see antisemitism everywhere
Yours is a nonsense talking point from those who deny it.
If you believe that I've got a bridge to sell you
Cuck
Calling someone a cuck because you disagree with them isn’t the big-brained argument you think it is. All it does is expose your ignorance and inability to debate.
I'm not calling you a cuck because I disagree with you
I'm calling you a cuck because you've cucked to the narrative that any criticism of Israel is borderline antisemitic
The same people who say that often end up with their foot in their mouth as they accuse actual Jewish people of antisemitism lol
not really though, calling any support for palestine antisemitism is offensive to the actual antisemitism that happens everyday. i grew up in a suburb that was a huge Jewish community, the antisemitism they would go through often was absolutely disgusting. there’s a clear difference between the two, and it becomes obvious that people just don’t like any support of palestine so they cry antisemitism knowing that it’s a serious issue.
One enables the other. Of course support for Palestinians isn’t inherently antisemitic, but it enables and empowers them to come out of the woodwork.
I try to stay out of these conversations because it’s such a divisive issue, but it’s also often overlooked that Palestinians and the Arab world are victims of an enormous psyop conducted over several decades to instill a Nazi-like hatred of Jews in order to prolong the conflict. This has been well-documented. I don’t know how that ever gets fixed. I feel bad for everyone.
but hasn’t that also been the other side as well? zionists and isreal supporting Jewish folk have been psyopped to believe that all arabs and palestinians should be eradicated. i’ve been seeing that for years. (i agree with you completely, but please don’t act as if both sides haven’t been psyopd).
Everybody been psyoped hard. Spiritual and Psychological warfare. The seemingly “adversarial” and opposed tribal leaders beating the drums and pulling the levers of war are actually allies, like brothers arms interlocked, in the maintenance and continuance of crisis and conflict, as a means to bolster their respective authoritarian control.
I strongly disagree with anyone who insists that the only way to end the conflict is to remove Palestinians from the land, but in the post-WWII era there were mass deportations of Jews living in Muslim countries who were taken in by Israel. Displaced Palestinians in neighboring countries were never absorbed, and remained in refugee camps for generations. This only helped to deepen the crisis, and it was clearly intentional.
It seems to me that the issue shouldn’t be “Palestinians” but Hamas. Personally I have a desire to see peace for Palestine. But Hamas is a terrorist organization. The mess is that Hamas does not operate like a traditional military (intentionally) so that attacking Hamas causes civilian suffering. It’s a god awful mess.
Eh, I’d disagree here. I’ve had the great fortune of an upbringing surrounded by many civil/human-rights minded, anti-zionist Jewish and allied non-Jewish people. The two (anti-semitism and anti-zionism) need not go together at all.
The wider issues I would say is that baseline antisemitism - the kind that’s designed to be hidden and built into the bedrock of our society (like baseline racism) - compels even people who believe they mean well to speak of “The Jews” and makes its very difficult for them to separate Jewish people (a myriad views, backgrounds, religiosity alignments, and ethnicities) and whatever the Israeli state is doing today…
Bullshit. I know plenty of Liberals who are both anti-racist and and anti-zionist.
i kinda messed up typing, i meant to say, while knowing that being against oppression, we must remain fighting against antisemitism as well.
Yes, this. I love Jews. But I'd like to see the Palestinians land which was stolen by the UN after WWII be returned to them. Because I love the Palestinians also.
It’s all meant to distract us and cause more war to keep the rich getting richer. I suspect US wants war with Iran unfortunately.
