@jstlk_ Do you think that Hasan was saying, in essence, that anyone who has exhibited any positive feeling about Israel in their lives should not be trusted to hold any office in the U.S.?
@intp_lola The issue is that you guys are what I call a “liberal in the streets, but an authoritarian communist who hates America in the sheets.” You pretend like all you want is healthcare, but in reality you want a total overhaul of America, while supporting authoritarian countries abroad
@intp_lola@steamboatmarlow@hasanthehun Ok so it sounds like you would be fine with a fully illiberal actual tankie, who supports
Russia, China, Iran, etc., and hates the US, as long as they also support M4A and destroying Israel. Sounds insane to me, but maybe you have a more accurate view of the American zeitgeist.
@intp_lola@steamboatmarlow@hasanthehun If JD Vance supported M4A and an arms embargo to Israel, would you be saying the same thing? Also, what does him supporting those things have to do with him being illiberal or not.
