@jeperdduro@BriannaWu The issue is that the person is attacking other people for misgendering a "blatant woman". If you don't have the time or energy to conceal your beard, I get it, but then you can't blame people for misgendering you, and you are not a "blatant woman."
Arabs in the Jewish state enjoy far more rights than Jews ever did—or still do—in Arab states, to the extent that any Jews remain there at all.
The ethnic cleansing of Jews from the Arab world was so thorough that virtually none remain. In 2021, for example, the last Jew fled Afghanistan following the Taliban’s return to power—ending more than 2,500 years of continuous Jewish presence stretching back to the Babylonian exile.
This type of argument really doesn’t land when there are like three dozen Muslim countries for which this is true and progressives don’t say anything about them.
As stated before, the word "genocide" has gone the way of "white supremacy" and "racism" in that it means nothing anymore. Accusations of "genocide" can now be applied to any future military conflict, which means real genocides are going to brushed off as no big deal in the future
Arab citizens of Israel enjoy the same legal rights as Jewish citizens. By contrast, the three million U.S. citizens of Puerto Rico are denied the right to vote in federal elections and lack equal representation in the House, the Senate, and the Electoral College.
Yet the far left never accuses the United States of apartheid—and often defends a status quo that systematically denies Puerto Rico legal and political equality. Their criticism of Israel is not principled; it’s propagandistic.
Do we have a messaging problem, or do we have a “Republicans lied to people so consistently for so long about the root of their discontent that they now live in a damn near impenetrable bubble” problem?
If Israel did not exist - I would be dead.
My grandparents would be dead.
Every Jew from the Middle East would likely be dead - or experience the death of all freedom.
Anyone who says Israel shouldn't exist is cosigning that.
