    I do not agree with this tool at all! I have never been Pro-Israel. I have nothing against the individual people who live there, but I do not support the policies of the Israeli government. This fuckhead does not represent me!

    Fuck Israel and every other country that thinks the people of other nations are disposable!

    But I’m not pro Israel. Neither is any progressive that I know… So you’re doing a hell of a poor job.

    I wish he felt that it was his job to make Israel anti-genocide. Not that it would matter, since he fails at everything.

    He’s just saying the quiet part out loud. That’s basically the entire governments objective.

    I like how he thinks he’s on the left. But then again many people seem to think the Democrats are on the left so maybe I can’t blame him.

      Establishment Democrats (not AOC/Warren/Crockett) love all the radical far left accusations. What a fucking sham

    Such a great grift these politicians have going. Let the fascists take over the media and government and abide by their accusations of the Democrats being “the far Left” (pretending there’s a left and you’re part of it) and make it into a wrestling sports event where its all pre-scripted and performative.

    Fuck Schumer

    If anyone else said this, Schumer himself would denounce them for spreading an “anti-Semitic trope.”

    Just quoting him word-for-word is enough to be denounced on the same grounds

    Spot on. Equating all Jewish people with Israel IS an antisemitic trope.

    he’s wrong on keeping anyone pro-israel and he’s wrong on thinking the democrats as “left”.
