AOC on removing Omar from committee assignments:

“Don't tell me that this is about a condemnation of antiSemitic remarks when you have a member of the Republican caucus who has talked about Jewish space lasers and also elevated her to some of the highest committee assignments in this body…

This is about targeting women of color in the United States of America.”

✅ Someone tell me how antisemitic Republicans are also pro Zionist ?! ✅

@flexghost Much of the Evangelical Christian doctrine is Zionist — get all the Jews back to Jerusalem and then the Second Coming will happen.

@cakrolik @flexghost this is the correct answer. It's an End Times oriented mindset and the whole thing makes total sense from their interpretation of Revelations and related texts. The Zionist state is a means to an end for apocalyptic evangelicals, and the end is literally The End - the second coming and all that.

@flexghost yes. that said, there is a particular type of white supremacist for which the pro-Israel and antisemitism is (at least somewhat) consistent -- as i understand it, those folks claim they want all non-white-christians to 'go back where they came from' (and thus it is important Israel exists for folks to be sent back to) - (never-mind that it is ahistoric)

@flexghost Sadly zionism and antisemitism are wholly compatible: the desire to "get them out of here" doesn't sound as terrible when "they" have a place to go, theoretically.

And American theological eschatological thought *requires* the Jews to return to Israel in order for their end-times script to move forward, so that's convenient.

@flexghost The GOP doesn't actually support a nation or a people in that. It's part of their end times rapture garbage, and it's a deeply antisemitic belief in truth.
Show threadtech himboFeb 3, 2023

@flexghost zionism is based on the antisemitic premise that jewish people belong in their own separate country, as well as some wacky evangelical shit about the apocalypse

if i advocated for shipping all the black people back to africa or all the brown people back to south america, you would correctly identify those ideas as racist

why should the standard be different for jews?

Show threadLizardFeb 3, 2023

@flexghost There’s a subset of American fundies who support Israel because they believe it must exist to usher in the apocalypse and the return of White Republican Jesus. Since WRJ will condemn all those non-believing Jews to hell, this doesn’t contradict their anti-semitism.

Just ocurred to me, this is the same pattern of a European ruler welcoming Jews, taking out huge loans, then remembering they were “Christ killers” when they were asked to pretty please maybe pay some back?

Show threadWhitney DFeb 3, 2023
