Until we drop First Past the Post voting for Ranked Choice, we will never be free of the regressive portions of the democratic party.

TO BE CLEAR: This isn’t a ‘both sides’ argument. Only one party tried to overthrow a legal election by force.

That said, voting blue is only necessary because we realistically have no other choice under our current voting structure.

The anti-zionists I know are not antisemitic, and I have not seen them be antisemitic.

Pretty interesting how blind you are to your own confirmation bias.

Since I’m in a bad mood, I’ll point it out to you.

If you are not antisemitic, likely you do not tolerate being around antisemitic people. Therefore the anti-zionists you know are not antisemitic.

I, on the other hand, was born in the state of drunken alligator fights and hookworm, where 60% of the population is antisemitic AND anti-zionist, so I have seen it many, many times.

but I almost never see people do this.

Then you should learn to appreciate the fact you don’t live in the middle of the deep south and the culture that surrounds you is a lot more sane and reasonable than a good chunk of the nation actually is.

For example, the ‘Jewish space laser’ conspiracy theory is BOTH antisemitic and anti-zionist.

Fuck I wish I could laugh at this but I wouldn’t put it past some whack-ass facebook winemommy group doing this exact thing…

I mean there are people who advocate infection parties for fucking chicken pox…

Agreed, there is a legitimate way to criticize the Israeli government that isn’t tied to race.

The antisemite says “They are monsters because they are Jews”

The anti-zionist says “They are monsters because they act inhumanely towards civilians”

The antisemitic anti-zionist says “They act inhumanely towards civilians because they need to gather precious child blood for their (((rituals)))”

But the problem here is that there are a FUCKTONNE of antisemites that want to hide in the crowds of the anti-zionists for ideological cover.

On the OTHER hand, I’ve never seen an anti-zionist hide in the crowds of the antisemites for ideological cover unless they also harbored racist misbeliefs.

It’s pretty easy on the face to tell the difference, but even that level of nuance is beyond the understanding of so many people.

True, but also they can exist in the same statement, and often do.

Our worldlines have been shattered, all metatemporal axes are out of phase and even the Timearch is without recourse on her plank space throne.

Remember back when the worst thing that happened was a handful of popular celebrities dying naturally?

There will come a time when you can’t, and maybe that will make dealing with our current ecological, economic, and social collapse easier to bear as it gets worse and worse every day…

If there is any more proof needed that we are in the Bizzarro World timeline is the Taliban urging peace…
