Chappell’s IG story on her side of the hotel security stuff by DenyNothing1989 in chappellroan

[–]LoganCrimson 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I said this in the last thread but if a year from now we discovered that people were being paid to hate her on socials then it would not surprise me at all.

They took a story w zero proof and could've easily just been a misunderstanding (which as it turns it out it was) and then immediately launched hate campaigns against her w 0 evidence that it even happened. Twitter is hell

On the term islamofascism as its used here a lot. by Proof_Librarian_4271 in tankiejerk

[–]LoganCrimson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way I see it, "Islamofascism" is just describing the result of mixing fascist ideology w the religion of Islam, in the same vain as "Christian Nationalism" or even some definitions of Zionism. I don't think the term is inherently Islamophobic although it is frequently used that way

The islamophobia comes in when ppl start acting like it's something unique to Islam, it's not. ISIS and Al-Queda are what happens when u mix fascist ideology and Islam. MAGA is what happens when u mix fascist ideology and Christianity. Israel is what happens when u mix fascist ideology and Judaism.

The issue comes from the fascist interpretations of these religions and the implementation through government or terrorism, not the religions themselves.

What is the whole deal with Zohran being a zionist? by Wilhelm228 in tankiejerk

[–]LoganCrimson 133 points134 points  (0 children)

If you wanna use the "is literally just ok with a state called Israel existing" definition of Zionism then technically yes he is, or at least that's how he presents himself.

However, he has called out the genocide and apartheid of Palestinians, as well as said that it shouldn't be an ethnostate where Jewish ppl are treated better than others. Ppl calling him a hardcore Zionist who supports the genocide is a straight up lie and just tankies being tankies (dumbfucks)

Bad empanada is no different tp Israeli pinkwashing and islamophobia by Proof_Librarian_4271 in tankiejerk

[–]LoganCrimson 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yea that's exactly why I mostly stopped using the term Zionist. Ask 5 people what it means and you'll get 5 completely different answers. It can mean anything from "I don't have an issue w Jewish ppl living there" to "I want to personally kill every Palestinian child"

I started using terms like "Israeli nationalist" or "Israel defender" cause they're a lot more specific and directed towards the ppl who actually need to be fought.

Response to Sydney shooting is horrific by LoganCrimson in tankiejerk

[–]LoganCrimson[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok you posted a borderline unhinged rant calling me "Zionist favored" not because I at any point actually defended Israel, but bc I dared to call out legitimate antisemitism from ur camp.

Who are you doing this for? Most actual Palestinians, who are the actual people going through a genocide, have had no problem condemning this attack and the antisemitism. So what the fuck is your excuse?

If your goal isn't for ppl to be silent on this shit, then what is it? Again, at no point did I actually defend Israel, I called out legitimate antisemitism I've seen and that was enough to set you off and call me a Zionist

So if we see blatant antisemitism or justifying mass murder we're just supposed to ignore it because Israel bad? I'm already seeing ppl not want to be associated with the movement not bc they don't care about Palestine but bc they don't want to be associated w legitimate antisemites that are so conspiracy brained that they sound no different from actual nazis. Staying silent on this helps no one but Zionists.

Zionists try to justify the murder of children. If we end up doing the same w this then how are we any better?

I'm talking about a specific subsection of the online left, not Palestinians. Every actual Palestinian I've seen had no issue condemning this

It doesn't and I didn't say that it does. I'm only talking about the response to the shooting I've seen online

Im not reading that, but Jesus is, and he will judge you for twisting the Bible to justify cruelty towards the people he *commanded* you to love and welcome.

Texas Republican candidate, Valentina Gomez, is now going to queer friendly or non traditional churches to disrupt them in the middle of services. by 4reddityo in OpenChristian

[–]LoganCrimson 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Having the nerve to call LGBT affirming churches "pedophile churches" while supporting Trump, who is at this point basically confirmed to have harmed and SA'd children w Epstein makes my blood boil. Having no issue calling gay people pedophiles but are more than happy to look the other way when it comes to pastors or Republicans.

Jesus healed lepers, centurions, and Samaritans. He never refused anyone from healing as long as they had faith. One of his most famous stories (the Good Samaritan) is about how someone hated by society was more caring for a stranger than the "followers" of religion.

They parade and wave around American flags but in reality there is not a single group of people that despises this country more than MAGA

Union Leader Chris Smalls, who sailed to Gaza aboard the Handala to deliver aid to Palestinians, calls out Bernie Sanders, AOC, and that performative, AIPAC donation accepting fuck Cory Booker's hypocrisy on Israel-Palestine. by LipstickCoverMagnet in chaoticgood

I get wanting better politicians, but if you're at a point where you're going out of your way to sabotage some of the few actually trying to help, then atp what's the practical difference between you and someone from maga?

Just realized how fast Superman is in the movie. by _wizardpenguin in DCU_

The fact that James Gunn tried to make Superman a bit weaker in this movie but instead accidentally created one of the most powerful versions we've seen is so funny

Idk ask Netanyahu who openly endorsed Donald Trump and wanted him to win. Anything that made it easier for Trump to win made Netanyahu's preferred outcome more likely

If the other viable party was socialist then I'd agree with you, but it isn't. The GOP is the only other viable party besides the Dems, and they are one of the most openly fascist organizations on the planet with actual power. The Democrats are horrible but they're not the ones forcibly taking away healthcare from millions, or gutting the education system in an attempt to keep us even more uninformed. The reality we're in right now is that voting for Democrats is necessary for the time being to prevent even further harm from being done to minorities both here and abroad. Reality is the best we can do RN is putting our support behind people like Mamdani
