I see where you are going. Well, how anti Zionism and antisemitism are interconnected is subject to the current scientific debate and I won't start a fundamental discussion on this topic with you. What is important for me in the end is, that I am standing against the left that is openly sympathizing with the Hamas.
Zionism is, and has always been since the modern movement started in the 19th century, intrinsically antisemitic.
If you don't want to engage in a civil discussion, that's alright with me. But if you run out of arguments, just stop commenting?
Hamas is based and defending Palestine against genocidal Nazis.
The modern left-right discourse is just so confusing to me.
I've seen authoritarians, supporters of war crimes, and support for terrorism and cruelty, all claimed as leftist positions. I can't reconcile them with what I thought left-wing values were about.
I really think we need something with more dimensions to be popularized. The left-right system is just so loaded at this point. I personally can't identify with either side at all.
Your problem is that you're an idealist and you think ideas can be translated into practice just by having the correct ideas. Reality is not like that, fascists will play dirty and capitalists will play dirty and you can't win at their own game.
Yeah, I absolutely agree. I guess this is one of the reasons these "inter left" discussions are so exhausting.
And standing with the Zionists openly committing genocide
