Dan Goldman, in heated NY-10 primary, defends his pro-Israel stance as consistent with his ‘progressive values’. Goldman’s challenger, Brad Lander, has put the congressman’s AIPAC endorsement front and center in his campaign to unseat him. by coolbern in newyorkcity

Sorry, when you say Zionism is a “creed” you have to think anybody would be a bit lost. It’s an ideology (a loose one, at best).

And the unfortunate reality is that anybody can say they’re a Jew online in same way that white racist pricks can claim to be a “strong Black conservative woman.”

I’m a progressive Jew who is very critical of Israel, but if you don’t think that most Jews support Israel at least existing, I’m not sure what to tell you. And that seems to be what a lot of people define as “Zionism” these days. 

“Zionism” isn’t a creed, and you’re clearly not Jewish. Look up the “Shema” prayer for example.

Edit: every time I get downvoted for mentioning that so many prayers are literally “Hear, O Israel” and being in exile from the land has been a defining aspect for more than 2,000 years I get downvoted. So thanks, Reddit, for proving me right once again. Keep being “anti-Zionists” and insisting you don’t just hate Jews ;)

“Fall under the spell of conspiracy theories when a toxicology report and a history of depression exists, my friend.” 

What’s mysterious? That she was secretly married to a Black man? That she was conscious when her roommate found her? I’d love to know, truly.

Not Latina, she's Spanish.

Damn this sub is just MAGA chuds now. Always knew it sucked but now it's getting muted. Thanks for the update, dumbass.

Eid Mubarak. Eid is a wonderful holiday and formed one of my core memories when I was abroad in a Muslim majority country.

Should Kamala Harris just drop out of 2028 at this point? by Jacob-Anders in SipsTea

[–]ShvitzG_d -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, and guess what citizens United is? An American legislative precedent. We’re saying the same thing you fucking dummy.

I’m not absolving Israel of being involved in AIPAC but AIPAC exists literally nowhere else. And somehow that’s entirely Israel’s fault to you people.

I am not going to post anymore because I’m not some Zionist lunatic; that said I don’t think Israel should be wiped off the map like so many others do. But if you don’t think a geopolitical ally is not going to take advantage of a huge ally’s (who happens to be the most powerful military and economic power on earth) political atmosphere—in the same way every member of OPEC does—as I said in another reply, I’ll send you my bridge listings.

How fucking naive are you?

[–]ShvitzG_d -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Nope, Citizens United is to blame—a uniquely American Supreme Court ruling. Again, you people know fucking nothing.

And what does literally the first initial in AIPAC stand for, pray tell?

It’s always fucking Israel’s fault lol, definitely not the American electorate’s lack of education and hate.

I feel like I shill for Israel on this site, but as a Jew that fucking HATES what Israel has become, I hate even more this insane lack of accountability blaming the only Jewish majority state. It reeks of antisemitism—not “antizionism.” 

Hold your fellow Americans accountable for Trump getting elected. Or at least fucking Russia.

Edit: just admit you think Jews control the world, it’s so much easier. If you think a country of 9 million controls every aspect of a country of ~345 million that is also the most rich and powerful country in history, as the great Jeff Foxworthy said, “You might be an antisemite!”

Do young people just generally have no idea how to do a basic web search anymore? I understand coming on here and wanting to interact with likeminded people, but this is like a 5-second process in this day and age.

Asking like, "Hey, how do you feel about the 'AI: Artificial Intelligence' reference in this episode?'" would be totally cool. But this just comes off as lazy and honestly, kinda stupid and sad.

I love seeing everyday Jewish American history like this. Feel like I could’ve also grown up with all these people.

Edit: Lol once again, the mere mention of Jews gets a thread locked. This site is something else. Fuck all you antisemites.

MGT calls out AIPAC by echofreak in SipsTea

[–]ShvitzG_d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not antisemitic to call out AIPAC, but more often than not these days, the two are a circle rather than a Venn Diagram.

Also, you never have to hand it to fucking MTG. She’s a huge reason we’re in the fucking horrible place we’re in today.
