no, im saying that the current republican leadership has given legitimacy and a mainstream political voice to white nationalist groups for the first time in generations, and a junior congresswoman saying anti-israel stuff isnt a very good deflection from that.

In what fucking way?

Just because you imagine something doesn't make it true.

Oh noes! We're going to lose the pro-Zionism vote in our movement to stop pointless foreign wars...

Surely if some white blond dude said that -- we would get those votes.

it's retarded to argue that leftists (let alone lefties) hate Jews. they hate success. it's the central theme of the left. success is always attributed to the environment, never the individual. the individual's role is only ever limited to manipulating the environment to enhance the benefits to themselves and corresponding losses to others. there are no win-win outcomes in a free society.

Democrats should burn a Bible at chic fil a. That would be better than having a Somali in Congress

Hope this helps. Politics is a game of optics. You’re getting rekt by an obese septuagenarian who eats KFC

Kfc isn't Halal.

You’re going to lose suburban votes by having a hijabi shrieking about Israel. Do you really not understand that? Americans don’t fear or hate Jews. They do fear and hate Muslims

Are you low IQ or something? what is hard to understand about this???

The majority of Americans support Israel, you retard.

The problem with Freedom,

we don't actually have it. At least the vast majority of us.

We're all authoritarians at heart. Some just like the current authority structure more than others.

And that's because the leftists are nihilistic self-defeatists who simply do not believe in individual achievement. They've given up, and now they're waiting on the world to chance to suit them. Totally realistic expectation; I'm sure their power-seeking sociopathic leaders are altruistically seeking power to deliver their fantasy to them.

It's not an outlandish desire, particularly if you are an agreeable person, a covetous one, an empathetic one or a slothful one. ones intentions could be well placed, the price just isn't always well understood.

Some elected official talks about Israel and then Fox News plasters it all over their network like she's running for president.

A pro-Israel Jew is running socialist for president...or did you forget that because whatever right slanted news feed your reading is prattling about this all day?

Both networks take the dumbest motherfucker from each side and use them to represent the other side on their echo chamber networks. This is nothing new -- you're just sensitive about this particular topic.

Most people that are at all open to voting for Sanders are not going to get scared away because of some congress woman that represents hardly anyone -- not AOC not her.

I know that it is REALLY hard to grasp this for some of you -- But modern voters that swing at all -- look at the actual person running for president, not the every ugly thing in each of their parties.

Politicians get elected by promising shit for their constituents and gaining trust -- nothing more.
