Israel is a terrorist state.
/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!
Israel is a terrorist state.
Colorism still existed and exists in Portugal. I’ll grant that this is a more fluid system of discrimination than white supremacy which seems to make integration easier due to having less rigid sociopolitical structures, but it’s still present!
Why do you think they do disenfranchisement?
I do not believe fascism can function without ethnic hatred. Nationalism within imperialist countries always takes on a racial character, and it has to, because otherwise cross racial solidarity destabilizes the oppressive apparatus.
This clearly wasn’t a problem before this year. The parties just did what they usually do, but now unknown rules that were never enforced before are suddenly a problem. Oh and the rules are different in every single state. They’d need to hire a legal team to get nationwide ballot access.
It’s still a useful example for third party voters to learn an important lesson.
No arguments that these third parties are woefully inadequate.
Sure, but let’s remember what I actually said: what’s happening highlights the undemocratic nature of US elections.
How we respond to that is important, but it doesn’t change my original point!
The rules are made up and the game doesn’t matter. Also the rules are hidden behind layers of procedural nonsense and you only find out you broke the rules after the fact.
It shouldn’t require hiring a legal team to get ballot access. My only point is this isn’t a democratic process.
History books do mention the Germans that were opposed to the Holocaust.
Tedious libshit - oh we’d love to have a democratic process, but you didn’t jump through all the procedural hoops in exactly the right way (rules we made up and were never voted on lol). Sure they rules are different in every single state and are selectively enforced, but rules are rules!
Mexico, being a US neighbor, is probably basing some of this decision off of the shit show happening across the border. I suppose that does bias their decision making.
I guess we’ll see how it works out, since this looks like a done deal.
That serves Zionism. Making other countries less safe for Jews means they’re more likely to flee to Israel. It’s a feedback loop.
Must Jews be constantly disavowing every new horrible thing Zionists lie about? It’s not as if there aren’t Jews condemning Zionism more broadly.
Jewish Voice for Peace, IfNotNow, the many Jewish members of the different Students for Justice in Palestine groups, quite a few of the Uncommitted delegates were Jewish, need I go on?
The fact that you don’t believe there are Jews opposed to genocide is, in fact, the result of an antisemitic media campaign to smear all Jews as pro-Israel.
It’s not being covered.
Jewish Voice For Peace and IfNotNow are two Jewish lead orgs that come to mind. There are many Jews saying “not in our name” and they’re ignored because it contradicts the narrative.
History will remember the people who stood up against this genocide. It always does.
Yes, Zionism and antisemitism are actually complementary ideologies. The most antisemitic people love having a place to send their Jews to, and Zionism turns a minority group into nationalist racists.
Let’s not contribute to that.
Fuck off with that kind of language. Israel does not represent Jews and its actions are all too human. Inhumane, for sure, but humans can be quite sadistic and cruel when enthralled by fascist ideology.
But Jews around the world reject Israel’s actions. That’s what history will remember.
accusing her of prioritizing hatred for Israel over environmental activism despite Israel’s efforts on climate action.
Israel’s genocide campaign has been horrible for the environment 🙄
I don’t know enough about Portugal to argue with this. I know about French colonialism and the horrors they inflicted, and British colonialism and the horrors they inflicted, and those examples make me suspect that all colonialisms are going to produce the same horror.
But, I don’t know for sure. Haven’t read that history yet. I know there’s a lot of extremely violent racism in Brazil’s history, but that’s technically not Portugal so I can’t say for sure that reflects on Portugal itself.
Basically, I don’t know enough to argue about this 😅
(also pay no attention to that down vote you got - I promise it wasn’t me!)
