You are ok with Israel killing the person on the right wing that exposed Israel's involvement in Epstein, and the Kirk assassination?
Not so good for further right wing defectors from the party that. Personally, I don't support Israel killing American Citizens, even if I don't like them. I also appreciate allies on an issue even if I don't like them, or agree with them on everything.
If we don't cooperate on what we agree on, and stop listening to people telling us to reject allies that aren't pure enough, told to us by the worst people in the world, then those worst people in the world continue to win.
Israel is winning, because we condemn defectors that come out against Israel because they aren't perfect.
He did no such thing. He's just an antisemitic blowhard who makes up and spreads conspiracy theories and white supremacist hate for a living.
When the fascist apartheid regime he hates for all the wrong reasons turns out to be guilty of anything he's accusing them of, that's not him "exposing" anything, that's him getting lucky.
He's not that either. He may be outwardly "rebelling" on some topics, but he's very much still a part of the fascist club.
Except that's not at all what's going on here.
Tucker Carlson doesn't oppose Israel because he recognizes that Palestinians are human beings. He opposes Israel because he doesn't believe Jewish people are human beings and conflates them with Israel.
You're never going to stop a genocide by pointing out what a good ally someone is for being bigoted towards the people committing it.
Very convenient every person that goes against Israel on the left is labeled anti salmon, which, so are you by the way. The same people making that charge also charge you for it. Divide and conquer. It feels hopeless trying to talk sense to people manipulated by organized interests while we disparately are turned against our allies.
As if we had already won you are riding around on your high horse about "stopping a genocide" spending your time attacking the only ones on the right that have stood against it, an act of bravery at great personal and reputational cost, as you chalk it up to malign motives, as if that should fucking matter right now.
You know who has even worse motives? Israel. Their superfans and backers. The Evangelicals. I'm sure you will pull together enough support to stop Israel and their fascist designs, on america not just their own area, by working with the ones deemed pure enough. But you aren't pure enough either by the same people that manipulated you into rejecting allies for lack of purity.
Grow the fuck up and look past your fucking hand, both hands, including the one stroking yourself off furiously about your moral superiority. If we listen to you, we lose.
Tucker Carlson is your ally?
Yeah apparently this guy thinks Tucker is "on the left."
Nope, it's actually very INconvenient that Zionists conflate anti-zionism with antisemitism.
That you would accuse me of doing the same thing in your defense of an ACTUAL antisemitic bigot who you claim to be my natural ally is absolutely laughable.
Yeah, because FSM forbid that I focus on what the enemy is doing that I oppose rather than hyperfocusing on who opposes the enemy while ignoring almost everything these "allies" say, including their own stated reasons for their opposition 🙄
Could you please get the bigot-cock out of your mouth for just one second? It's hard to hear you over the slurping noises.
To quote Maya Angelou, when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.
It very much does. It has never been easier to find prominent allies willing to speak up against Israel for the right reasons than it is right now.
Aligning ourselves with the likes of Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, Candace Owens, Perjury Greene, and other bigots doesn't get us anywhere closer to winning anything. It just gived Zionists an excellent opening for tarring us with the same brush.
Nah, they're about equal, as far as motives go.
Fun fact: that group very much includes Tucker Carlson, a fundamentalist Christian who claims with a straight face that he was attacked in his sleep by a literal demon.
As far as purity tests go, "do you think that all Jewish people are secretly plotting against white Christians" is pretty damn entry level..
Nope. There you go again. I embrace anti-zionism while rejecting antisemitism and other bigotry. That REALLY shouldn't be so hard to understand.
Wow, the projection is strong with this one 🤦
Right back at you, buddy!
He is not the one who exposed those connections, what a joke.
Tucker shifted when the wind changed; don't give him more credit than he deserves. This is a guy that sells stories about demons and he's never exposed a crime in his life.
That said nobody is rooting for Israel here. So its unclear who you think needs to hear what you're saying but its not anyone here.
Tucker is a guy who selectively edited out kanye west saying some abominable shit in an attempt to gaslight viewers into thinking kanye wasn't celebrating hitler. There's a good chance he just straight up broke some laws and let a holocaust joke fly or something.
Oh come on he talks a lot about all the crimes that the bidens and Obamas did do/are currently doing. You know all the crimes, the crimes he keeps just calling crimes and never enumerating or identifying specifically. Those crimes that surely did really super doper did happen.

Manic and should be on a loop in his jail cell.
