@HenMazzig This is basically the message of “Slam Frank”, the brilliant satirical musical where Anne frank and her family “fight expectations” (from society) while the literal Nazis hunting them down become just a backdrop.

Edgy but spot on in terms of today’s society.

@NupeAndre @RabbiWolpe @noam_dworman @coldxman Sounds like cope to me but ok!

@NupeAndre @RabbiWolpe @noam_dworman @coldxman The ignorance was in your comment, though your inability to address the substance of my comment only underscores your own overall ignorance, yes.

[Jessica Faye @JessicaY75136]

Actually Coleman made many strong arguments but the two he failed to land would refute your ignorant comment pretty cleanly:

1) 20% of Israeli citizens ARE Arabs (aka Palestinians who didn’t choose to flee on the hopes that the Arab armies would genocide the Jews in ‘48), and they have full and equal rights bc they are citizens of Israel

2) plenty of Palestinians live under Palestinian control in area A of the West Bank, not under “total Israeli control”. They are not citizens of Israel, btw, just like me not being a citizen of Jordan doesn’t make Jordan an apartheid state (tho I’m pretty sure that religion-wise it pretty much is, amirite?)

This one state nonsense would mean the dissolution of the PA which.. exists.

@claireforny Disgraceful (esp coming from such a poor excuse for an artist )

Since you named me, I want to respond directly.  Claire, you have a habit of treating “AIPAC” as a magic word that explains away every political setback.

Lost support? AIPAC. Criticism? AIPAC. Voters disagree? AIPAC.

You just suggested that undisclosed funding behind Real Fight NYC was tied to “pro-Israel” interests because I donated to your opponent. It wasn't. The PAC was funded by labor unions, a correction even Ryan Grim felt compelled to make.

That is the problem with conspiracy-minded politics. The conclusion comes first, the evidence comes later, and reality is expected to fit the narrative rather than the other way around. People who pride themselves on fighting prejudice should be especially careful about prejudging others.

This isn't a politics of substance or depth. It isn't even original. It is the same shallow conspiracy politics used by people across the political spectrum when they lack facts, evidence, or a more convincing argument.

Frankly, it’s disappointing to see. Democrats spent years criticizing Donald Trump for weaponizing conspiracy theories whenever reality did not go his way. We should not be adopting the same playbook simply because it is politically convenient. Conspiracy thinking is corrosive whether it comes from the right or the left.

Not every Jewish organization is AIPAC. Not every donor is part of a coordinated plot. And not every candidate who struggles politically is the victim of some grand scheme. Yet Claire, you seem determined to flatten every disagreement into the same simplistic story.

The irony is that people who claim to oppose exclusion often seem perfectly comfortable treating Jewish participation in politics as uniquely suspect when it becomes politically convenient. You can disagree with Israel. You can criticize AIPAC. What you cannot do is suggest that Jewish donors, Jewish organizations, or people who hold different views should somehow be excluded from the democratic process.

The problem may be that governing and politics are more complicated than you want them to be. Serious issues require serious analysis. They require the ability to distinguish between different organizations, different motivations, and different people. Not everything fits neatly into a slogan.

I am proud to have supported Democratic candidates across America, and I will continue doing so. No amount of name-calling, conspiracy theories, or attempts to delegitimize my participation in the political process will change that.

As for this race, I am happy to support your opponent because I believe he would bring the judgment, seriousness, and effectiveness that New Yorkers deserve from their representative in Congress. It is really that simple. No conspiracy required.

@mkhammer Feels appropriate that he’s sitting with macron at a moment of surrender like this. Pfff

@SyrianLib @nikicaga In which case your gripe should be with the Brooklyn pro pal crowd who doesn’t know the difference

There are roughly 60–80 times more Muslims in Israel than there are Jews in the ENTIRE Muslim world outside Israel.
But yes, ‘apartheid’

@RichardHanania @DarioAmodei Dario seems like a brilliant technical mind, but after hearing and reading his thoughts on economics… let’s just say, I’ll be going elsewhere for the takes

A few Germans like Freddy, went to the United States for the World Cup and have been travelling around the country. They ended up going viral because they were genuinely amazed by America and shared their enthusiasm online.

As someone who has been to the U.S. around twenty times and even lived there for a year, I can understand their reaction. In my experience, Americans are generally friendlier, more polite, and warmer than Germans, especially in smaller towns. And once you get away from the main tourist routes, there is an incredible amount of beautiful nature, unique experiences, and fascinating places to discover. If you know where to go, even the food can be outstanding.

I think the reason their videos went viral is that, for the past decade or so, most of the news coming to Europe about America has been negative. As a result, many people have developed a distorted image of the country. If you follow German news and media, you mostly see stories about school shootings, racism, police brutality, political conflicts, and similar issues. I honestly cannot remember the last time I saw a genuinely positive portrayal of America in the German media.

So when people actually visit the United States, they are often surprised by how different the reality feels from the image they had in their minds. In a way, I think America could use a rebranding. Growing up, I remember hearing stories about the "American Dream," and many of us in Germany dreamed of visiting or living in America. That sense of optimism and opportunity seems to have faded from the public conversation.

@HomoWMD @phantom_threadz You are so clearly motivated by your love of humanity; everyone should follow your politics

@olivia1968jm @JimTrakas @Microinteracti1 “What they’re doing to immigrants” is absolutely incomparable and utterly unrelated to Nazi Germany. Please pull your head out of your ass

[Jessica Faye @JessicaY75136]

@Microinteracti1 @JimTrakas This AI blather is utterly ridiculous. Nothing happening in the US today bears even the slightest remote resemblance to Nazi Germany, and you make a fool of yourself by continually declaring so. It’s embarrassing
