The west is supporting the country being invaded
Oh, sure… but not enough to actually score a decisive victory over Russia, eh? You know… that thing the Chechens managed back in the 90s without the most gigantic military logistical machine in the history of civilization sitting right next to it’s western border?
Yeah… I don’t think that’s the flex you think it is, Clyde.
Last time I checked Russian forces were still inside Ukraine, no?
When it comes to war, the two parties are always in agreement.
And that’s the left’s fault how?
You lost me at “Russian Special Military Operation in Ukraine.” You can just call it what it is… an invasion.
And if you think “the left” in the US is so powerful that it could have made any kind of dent in the narratives surrounding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine I have to call bullshit.
When has the west not chosen the wrong side of history?
How convenient… every time Israel indiscriminately murders Palestinians, it’s just going to be blamed on Palestinians?
Ahhh, the old post-WW2 European dilemma - to hate Jewish people just like they have since the very start of “western civilization”, or to love Jewish people (for now) because they murder brown people in the middle-east.
Pshhh… there’s a difference?
and care for its citizens,
If the Israeli government cared about the people it (supposedly) represents it wouldn’t be turning them into violent colonialist goons to do the west’s bidding in the middle-east, would it?
You might just as well ask how to fix the Apartheid-regime without upsetting white people or fix the Nazi regime without discomforting Nazis.
The conflict is extremely complicated.
It really isn’t. It’s just pro-Israeli propaganda pretending it’s complicated.
The Netherlands had better watch out… my ancestors came from there about 300 years ago, and that automatically gives me the right to rape, torture and murder my way through Antwerp!
You just tried to say that Israel’s supporters are antisemitic?
No. I never tried to say it.
I just plain said it - the countries that enable Israel is as antisemitic and white supremacist as they have always been. They’ve been hiding it since WW2 - but, as the resurgence of mask-off far-right ideology in the US and Europe proves, it’s still the same old west.
The west’s support for Israel has always been antisemitic - dumping European Jewish people in Palestine was literally one the Nazi’s potential solutions to the “Jewish Question”. It’s no secret - just mundane history that westerners doesn’t like talking about.
Christian Zionism predates Jewish Zionism - the whole reason these white supremacist and antisemitic societies fantasized about a modern-day “Israel” was simply because they did not believe Jewish people belonged in their precious “white” societies.
You don’t have to think about it for very long to see it for yourself - who were the people that made it so difficult for Jewish people to “belong” in western societies? If the US was so friendly and welcoming to Jewish people as the US wants to pretend it is (prominent Jewish people like Steven Spielberg and Noam Chomsky will happily tell you about US-style antisemitism), why would Jewish people need a “homeland” in the middle-east?
It’s never just been the US - Israel doesn’t just have a whole bunch of enablers… said enablers also back the very idea of a modern-day Israel.
France, the UK, Germany, Australia, Apartheid-era South Africa all played their part in helping with all this - I guess the fact that it’s all countries with histories that are deeply entwined with white supremacism, antisemitism and colonialism is purely coincidence, eh?
Crikey… did you see this one?
I learnt meritocracy is a joke long before I discovered that it was literally invented to be a joke.
Most of my coworkers can barely make it through their own tasks
I guess you haven’t met many CEOs, then.
There’s only one kind of democratic economy and we already have a word for it - it’s socialism. If the means of production isn’t owned by the workers it’s not democratic. It’s not socialist.
But it already is, isn’t it?
So if this…
nobody’s main defining characteristic should be their gender.
…is what you really want you need to start with cis people and not transgender ones, correct?
“Superhuman” at what? I can’t think of anything dumber than trying to breed “desirable” traits into humans - for every “desirable trait” you put in you are ignoring a plethora of traits that allowed our asses to survive for the last 2 million years.
Do you have another one? As demonstrated, your previous claim is a pretty dodgy one.
