Democratic socialist. Supports full democracy in the government and workplace. Against fascists, monarchists, neoliberals, and tankies.

@WMelonees @souljagoyteller Tens of thousands of American troops died to prop up South Vietnam. South Vietnam deliberately tanked peace talks in 1968 to ensure their favored candidate won the election. They clearly had way too much control over the US.

@USA_Polling That is absolutely not what the poll was asking

@AvivaHadara @mahmoudkhalel @DarializaforNY @AIPAC Too cozy with AIPAC means he's taken hundreds of thousands of dollars from them. Obviously someone opposed to AIPAC would oppose candidates backed by them.

@madmart33363545 @hasanthehun It doesn't seek to make Jews a minority, it says people who were forced out of their homes due to being the "wrong" ethnicity ought to have the right to return to them.

@nocturnalbottle The reappropriation of the word anti-Semitism was done by Jews, the appropriation of anti-Semitic terminology like goyslave was done by gentiles. That makes all the difference.

@levantineking98 @nocturnalbottle I don't recall far-right groups shooting up Irish-American churches, nor do they regularly go on and on about how the Irish Potato Famine was a great moment in history.

@ZiosTakingLs @NLH2224 Indeed, you are clearly showing a very strong in-group preference by absolving American Gentiles of their support for Zionism while lambasting Jews exclusively for it.

[Octopus Stone 🌹 ✡️ @Alectrik]

@BreeEsq @NLH2224 The thing that's a real shame is I don't think there exists a single major institution anymore that actually seeks to fight anti-Semitism. Nearly all have been converted into just advocating for Zionism.

@ZiosTakingLs @NLH2224 I think if somebody hyperfixated on attacking the positions of Black Americans and ignored Americans at large even if they held roughly comparable opinions, it would be pretty easy to conclude that they were racist.

[Octopus Stone 🌹 ✡️ @Alectrik]

@ZiosTakingLs @NLH2224 It's just so bizarre to argue that the millions of Jewish Americans who generically support various elements of Israel are completely cogent and aware of what they're doing, but the hundreds of millions of Americans who feel the same way are ignorant rubes.

[Octopus Stone 🌹 ✡️ @Alectrik]

@ZiosTakingLs @NLH2224 If during the Rwandan Genocide the vast majority of Americans supported generic pro-Hutu positions at a level roughly comparable to Hutu Americans, it would be very strange to let the non-Hutu Americans off the hook and only focus all ire on the Hutu Americans.

[Octopus Stone 🌹 ✡️ @Alectrik]

@ZiosTakingLs @NLH2224 To be clear, I have no doubt that more Jews on average support Zionism compared to Americans in general, I just doubt that the difference would be that significant. Undoubtedly, large majorities of both groups would agree with a variety of core Zionist statements.

[Octopus Stone 🌹 ✡️ @Alectrik]

@ZiosTakingLs @NLH2224 This is no distraction. This is the initial topic that was being discussed in this post: proof that the average Jew is vastly more Zionist than the average American. No proof has been shown.

[Octopus Stone 🌹 ✡️ @Alectrik]

@ZiosTakingLs @NLH2224 I'm talking about the vast majority of Americans supporting Israel's "right to exist," which would almost certainly be the case if people did a poll about that, not these other topics that you're bringing up. Stay on topic.
