"I don't think we should be fighting wars on behalf of Israel, and many Americans agree with that" (hexbear.net)

I'm one of those Americans [who is] really sick and tired of the narrative that we're constantly told: That we're supposed to hate some country that's overseas—that maybe we've never been to.

We don't know anything about that country, but we're told that they're the greatest threat to our freedoms and our democracy, and that we have to go to war with them.

I've never seen a Houthi—or however you pronounce it—I don't even know what they look like! I haven't seen them back home in The Bronx where I live; I haven't seen them in Washington D.C., and I keep saying: How is this a threat to everyday Americans?

If right wing anti-Semitism ends the war... I don't know how I'm going to feel. I think mostly more white hot rage at Democrats for bungling so bad. They could have been -israel, no one cares.

Unless this is an only Nixon can do China situation.

The dems didn’t bungle, they’re ideologically committed to Zionism and genocide, which is why Kamala didn’t say a damn word on the “campaign trail”. Sucks if right wing antisemitism prevails, but the space for this only exists because of liberal inaction

I like when people refer to the Houthis like it's an ethnicity

It's amazing how thoroughly "the left" was dismantled by the feds in America. The right-wing outflanks them on every issue, everything that happens that absolutely must be picked up by the actual left is instead picked up by the American right, and "the left" is instead on the other side. This, Ukraine/Burisma, Twitter Files, and all the other bullshit.
