The DNC protests aren't any different than the colleges though. This is for the majority not anti spending it's just anti semitic.
Well I consider them different for two reasons generally...
1. Targeting the protest at the DNC is legitimate, since the Democrats are in charge of foreign policy since October 7th...anyone who disagrees with that policy should target Democratic officials.
2. The college students are dumb and ignorant. I'm generalizing of course, but they don't seem to understand much of anything about the conflict, nor do they have any realistic demands of the universities. It's not motivated by anything genuine. The people protesting the DNC may also be ignorant but they are without excuse.
If it was about spending they would cut spending, not increase it. They aren't seeking ways to better manage our own country, they are seeking ways to cut off Jews from their only ally left on the planet of any consequence at all.
What will happen to Israel if we cut ties?
It's an interesting question. I don't believe all their neighbors would attack...but certainly some would.
All the neighboring Arab nations will be attacking Israel. The outcome is unknown, but we know the intent of the Islamists which is to kill the Jews and give any survivors (which would be few if any in the case of an Arab win) dhimmi status.
I believe nuclear war would result. Israel has made clear they will not lose to an invading army and will launch their 400 estimated nuclear arsenal in that event. I think we can assume Iran would be gone...entirely.
This is literally what they are demanding. Not just an end to the war Hamas started with the full surrender of Israel (which won't happen in any event and is ignorant of anyone to expect). Rather they are at the DNC demanding we end U.S./Israeli ties.
Right...I'm not sure if they understand the result of cutting ties with Israel or supporting Palestine....but that appears to be what they want.
How anti semitic do you really have to be to think this is something positive for "humanity" writ large? I wouldn't think it was a positive thing to stand behind those literally wanting to end a basic democracy in favor of a terrorist ran slavery of any people...
Antisemitism, like racism, is really only something widely shamed amongst white people and often accepted or excused amongst other communities.
There's a great example of Nick Cannon speaking with a black supremacist. He makes extremely racist and antisemitic statements in this interview....the sort that would end the careers of any white celebrity of similar status. Nick Cannon only had to take a short break (because of his antisemitic statements, not the racist ones about white people) an some public apologies to the Jewish communities before resuming his same career as if nothing happened.
I'm not sure why bigotry is ignored so often in other communities but this appears to be part of the result of letting antisemitic views slide amongst the Muslim/black communities. Sure, many white people are in these protests....but they're the "allies" (aka useful idiots) of these other communities. If it were just white students, they'd be labeled white supremacists or fascists for these views.
But clearly the things I think are not the things the new Marxist's think, because they have joined forces with the Islamists in every western country now save one or two...
I think many don't understand they're holding Marxist views.
It's why you see the same people at the same protests, they work with one another now to obtain one another's goals.
It's crazy, and I'm not even sure exactly what the Marxist's are thinking, but clearly they have decided this marriage is mutually beneficial, so the Marxist's and the Islamists are in bed together.
Well let's assume the Marxists are aware that the Muslims will not go along with their agenda. Then we can safely assume they are using them to manufacture crisis and have no concern in controlling or eliminating them post revolution.
In their hierarchal system of victims versus oppressors, whites (European Christians) and Jews got chosen as the people deserving of death. One litmus test of ideological purity (and perhaps whether they are a good white or a bad one) is based on whether they believe Israel (hence Jews) have the right to self defense. (Anyone who would say yes is a "zionist" and bad)
Actually, it's unclear where anyone stands on the hierarchy. A hierarchy itself implies some values and no clear values exist. Instead, I'd suggest that they support whichever group will get them the most political power in the moment. They supported BLM to manufacture crisis and mobilize black people at the polls. They defended the Jewish community from the far right in Charlottesville....turning a non-violent protest to a violent crisis. Now they attack the Jewish community with the Muslims....trying to create violence and discord.
This is why you see the anti semitic behavior on college campuses. They are being taught this at the very institutions they are engaging in these behaviors at.
Marxist dialects are certainly being taught....but I don't know if Jewish people are specifically being targeted in classes. Unlike white people....the Jewish community has advocacy groups that aggressively fight Antisemitism.
It's all in this racial and national hierarchy thing they are using to take over nations and to create this globalist vision for the world.
They definitely wish to upend western democracy and it's societal structures. Keep in mind though....these are Marxists....there is no plan at all for how to create a society. That's why defund the police became popular even for a short while. The notion that "we'll figure it out once we've succeeded in removing the police and getting power" is a hallmark of Marxism. There's never been a working plan for a successful socialist or marxist society. It's quite literally just a plan for creating division, dissent, and revolution....what comes after has no plan at all.
I've seen kids who's mind's didn't even seem to work anymore during the college protests, more like what you expect of cult members not college students...
Fun fact, the original title of the Communist Manifesto is "The Communist Confession of Faith".
It is a religion....a political one....with a perfect superior human consciousness as it's God and a utopian society as it's heaven.
It's not right. But it's anti semitic at it's core.
You kinda have to be to call anyone a Zionist who simply thinks Israel as a nation has the right to exist
Just like they called any white people who founded the US white supremacists....or any white person with enough dignity to defend themselves against baseless accusations of racism a white supremacist.
I would fight if I was them... I can't expect less. On the other foot I see it as against God to fight the jews if I was in Palestine. Why? Because of what Jesus said to an already conquered people.... And the Arabs fought and lost, making them a conquered people basically who, if they were following Christ would seek to live as peaceably as possible as a Christian among their own version of the Romans.
Israel is....and has been...the only nation expected to live alongside a hostile neighboring nation that is trying to kill them at all times....and Israel must never destroy that nation.
It's a ridiculous expectation.
I do believe it's the moral position.
I believe that fundamentally....if the Palestinians are willing to fight and kill and die for the possibility of regaining what they believe they unjustly lost....they have the right to do so.
The problem is when they lose this fight....they complain about how badly they are losing....not that the fight was wrong to begin with. If Palestinians were willing to disavow Hamas, recognize the right of Israel to exist, and be willing to work with Israel to destroy any terrorist organizations or political organizations that argue otherwise....then I think Israel should accept their surrender and cease their war. Anything short of that should result in the continued destruction of Gaza and all people in it.
When it's right to fight you do, but there's times you just start living, even if it hurts ones pride a little....
Everyone who starts a war believes they are right to do so. Losing the war is surrender. I don't see any Palestinians arguing that they surrender and no longer recognize the authority of Hamas. They are simply whining about how badly they are losing the war they started. It's true they are losing...but it doesn't seem obvious they are ready to abandon the terrorist organization they placed in charge if their society and recognize the legitimate existence of Israel. Until then....the war should continue.
So I can't support terrorism, I can't support Hamas and I do think that if you pick a battle and lose then it's on you to learn how to live with those consequences.
Indeed...losing a fight you began is no reason for the victor to stop. They began this fight for certain reasons...and those reasons need to be recognized as wrong. We didn't allow Germany to keep the Nazi Party when they surrendered...and the Palestinians should have to elect new leaders who aren't hostile to Israel. If none exist...they should all be prepared to die.
And I do find my morals the only morals that matter.
Lol so do I and everyone else.
Never imagined myself writing on a Christian forum how terrorism is a bad thing. That used to be universally acknowledged in America, now it's not.
The left has abandoned any real set of values for whatever political positions they believe will gain them power in the moment. It leads to a lot of hypocrisy.
