"Schumer needs to get the hell out": House Democrats fume over DHS funding talks - Lemmy.World

Well sounds like the Democratic leadership to aggressively court disgruntled voters and listening and addressing their concerns is off to a great start with this.

The DNC is controlled opposition and the fact that centrists are in denial about it puts all of us in great peril.
Tinfoil hat conspiracy theory right there.
Really? Cause they are both bought by AIPAC lol

People love blaming the Jews. The National Association of Realtors spent more than the AIPAC last cycle.

Top PACs

Here are the top political committees (PACs) for the 2024 election cycle based on total fundraising, contributions to candidates, total spent, and total spent in independent expenditures and communication costs.

Again, conflating a Nation State with ethnicity.

Ironically, it is antisemitic to link Judaism to a genocidal regime.

Israel is explicitly a Jewish ethnostste and claims to be the homeland of all Jews. That link is literally in Israel’s founding documents. You might as well complain about linking the Vatican to Catholicism.

25% of Israel is not Jewish. The land is also sacred to other faiths.

If the Pope started killing residents of Rome and expanding the Vatican into Borgo then I would blame the Pope, not Catholics in general.

25% of Israel is not Jewish. The land is also sacred to other faiths.

The Knesset is majority Jewish, the cabinets are almost exclusively Jewish ministers, and of course there is PM Netanyahu. He rew is the country’s official language and almost 80% of Israeli Jews think Jewish citizens deserve preferential treatment over citizens of other religions.

How Israel’s Jewishness is overtaking its democracy

According to a new Pew poll, half of Israeli Jews have come to seek not only a Jewish majority but even Jewish exclusivity in Israel. That doesn’t bode well for Arab-Jewish coexistence in Israel—even aside from what happens in the West Bank and Gaza.

Again you are being antisemitic by trying link Judaism to a genocidal regime. The people in power in Israel are not monsters because they are Jewish.

Most Jews do not live in Israel and are not killing Palestinians.

Like it or not the regime claims to represent Judaism. I don’t blame non-Israeli Jews for what Israel does any more than I blame the average Palestinian for what Hamas did.

Like it or not the regime claims to represent Judaism.

My beef is with you claiming that disliking aipac is blaming the Jews.

Your stance seems to have softened so let’s leave it with you promising not to conflate State and religion/ethnicity in the future.

My beef is that saying that a Jewish group controls the government, even if you don’t realize it consciously, is repeating antisemitic claims that date back to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. That doesn’t mean you are antisemitic, but you should realize what you are saying.

No. You brought the antisemitic beef to the discussion.

If you had said

People love blaming the Jews Israels. The National Association of Realtors spent more than the AIPAC last cycle.

Then we wouldn’t be having this conversation.

Next time consider your choice of words.

I guess we will just have to disagree.
Fuck no. You can’t substitute the word Jew and claim anti-semitism against Israel. Don’t do it again.
