Why is Zionism connected to everything?
Before I had my pay-whatever-you-can law practice, I was a legal director at a free legal aid clinic. The part of the job I loved was the free lawyering for people. The part of the job I hated was the fundraising. Naturally, I had to do that part a lot.
Still another wondered if I was shielding tenants from learning valuable life lessons. A fourth was concerned it was unfair to not also give free representation to landlords.
I tried explaining the racial and class disparities inherent to eviction law specifically and property law more generally,
closing with the statistics tying evictions to generational poverty and the prison industrial complex. I recommended they read "The Color of Law" by Richard Rothstein. I invited them to come to court with me and see conditions there for themselves.
One of my previous interlocutors broke in.
"This sounds just like what Palestinians say," they said. "No personal responsibility for their own lives. It's always Israel's fault and asking for money. Just like you're doing here."
There was an uncomfortable pause, and I again began talking about institutional racism before I was stopped.
"We're done," said another. One thanked me for coming, but the speaker who had compared me to Palestinians interjected.
"Let HIM find HIS own way out," that person said, emphasizing the incorrect pronouns and looking right at me.
We didn't get a donation.
The most vocal zionists tend to also be racists and fascists.
@theleftistlawyer "This sounds just like what Palestinians say" so close to getting the point
And yet so far
@ProcessParsnip @theleftistlawyer
He's saying it from the viewpoint of a fascist Israeli soldier shooting a kid in the brain
@ProcessParsnip @theleftistlawyer
The Israeli government and its supporters see Palestinians as a waste of oxygen, as subhumans, as superfluous biomatter that exist with the sole purpose of blocking the master race from taking their birthright.
@ProcessParsnip @theleftistlawyer
No amount of appeals to systemic injustice will prevent these people from being fascist monsterous losers who kill babies for fun
@ProcessParsnip @theleftistlawyer
They, much like ICE, and the US Department of War, and the paramilitaties in Sudan and Myanmar, take glee in the unilateral execution of other human beings.
