AOC 2028 won’t happen.

[CT Progressive #FireTisch🚔🆕 @CTprogressive_]

BREAKING: AOC expected to attend her first NYC-DSA meeting in years to deliver speech pleading members to vote against resolution endorsing Rep. Ayanna Pressley for Speaker of the House.

@becomingidea @Meltdown1917 Seems like suspension until the hearing is backwards and gives a pretty insane amount of authority to whoever has that power

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@ar1iad3ne @georgeofpatmos And that includes being wary of people like Benjamin Moser who center their Jewishness in their activism without actually fighting the overwhelmingly Zionist Jewish institutions.

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@ar1iad3ne @georgeofpatmos Should the anti-Nazi movement have been anti-German? I don’t think antizionists should be against all Jews a priori, but since 90%+ of Jews and 99%+ of Jewish Institutions support Israel the facts are we should be wary of Judaism as an institution.

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@ar1iad3ne @georgeofpatmos If you’re actually an engaged religious Jew, you should be fighting the Zionism in your own community. If you’re not, highlighting your own Jewishness does nothing but get you more attention and praise, and distracts from Palestinians and the people actually affected.

@NLH2224 Modern Jews are not at a “risk of assimilation” in the way native Americans or other indigenous people were. The problem with that assimilation was the rape and forced erasure of culture, not the race mixing.

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@NLH2224 “Threats of assimilation” by miscegenation. Just call yourself a Nazi already. There’s a word for breeding to preserve certain bloodlines, it’s eugenics. Creating a more pluralistic society means fighting the reactionary elements of that society, like anti-miscegenist Jews.

@georgeofpatmos @BenLorber8 Thanks now I don’t have to read it

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@ovofusa @ZedSoxs I think predetermining specific races you would and wouldn’t date is bigoted. That doesn’t nessacarily mean it’s bigoted if you happen to be more attracted to members of one race or another, but I think if you look further that’s still usually a result of internalized bigotry.

[Evil Man @evilkaratesk8er]

They Corbyned MUG Omar… is this really what Charlie died for?

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@thirdintl @theatheistomar Not a hot take at all. He was kicked out of the organization and you’re sitting here trying to justify it. He didn’t “go wrong” with personal attacks, he’s allowed to use whatever tone he wants and the DSA should not be policing that.

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@ovofusa @ZedSoxs Yeah ofc, don’t think anyone is arguing the act of marrying inside your own cultural/racial group is bigoted.

But that’s different from deciding, as an unmarried person, that you only want to marry within your group. While better than forcing it on your kids, it’s still bigoted.

[Josh @rohmerfan1127]

@yochaiandthesun I think there’s an ahistorical defensiveness behind attempts to totally separate “real Judaism” from “Zionist distortion of Judaism”. Pre-Zionist Judaism contained endorsements of supremacism, conquest, and genocide that supplied material and precedents for Zionist ideology.

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@signed_EZ “He may be right, but that’s not the way to say it.” Literally how are you any different than a liberal. I wish you people would engage with the substance of what he’s saying instead of just piling on to further complain about how mean he sounded.

[Evil Man @evilkaratesk8er]

REMEMBER THIS FACE.

THIS IS YOU.

THIS IS YOUR FAMILY.

THEY WILL EXPEL YOU.

THEY WILL CANCEL YOU.

THEY WILL FUCKING KILL YOU.

BE READY.

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@LadyofCarcosa @dimitrovhimself Yeah exactly, what a waste of time. Obviously your allowed to be mean on the internet, move the fuck on

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@LadyofCarcosa So much “left discourse” would never happen if people didn’t feel the need to complain about the way others sound, but actually engaged with the substance of the argument. Wouldn’t expect that from groundwork though.

[lersk ☭ @slabajib123]

@ovofusa @ZedSoxs Yeah endogamy is doing so to the exclusion of others, and outright bigotry. No one here is arguing against culture as a whole.
