What’s going on with all these footnotes

Fundamental misunderstanding of what sexual harassment means, apart from all the other issues with this argument

Israel simply does not have the power to force the US government to do something it does not want to do. What Rubio is doing here, by claiming Israel forced the US hand, is making Israel the scapegoat for a US policy he knows is unpopular. This framing is going to be so bad for Diaspora Jews.

I think it’s concerning to suggest that ethnic groups have loyalties (or have some inherent tendency to have loyalties) to foreign interests, particularly when it comes to ethnic groups historically targeted on that precise basis.

Surely the bigger concern is the actual antisemitism?

Well that one was a joke

Based on Netanyahu’s actions I presume they’d find some agreement among Likud

So, just the Jews then? Or did you have some particular Zoroastrian Zionists in mind?

Also, in fact, most Zionists aren’t Jews. This is a function of the antisemitic thread of the Christian evangelical movement, which is much larger than the global Jewish population.

Yes, very weird that Jews are touchy about accusations of dual loyalty! How crazy!

Do you think that when a group says “no Zionists” they are effectively banning Jews?

Surely it follows that if we Jews can’t be trusted to be as loyal to America as “normal” Americans, we must be a national security risk.

Which ethnicities specifically do you think should be treated presumptively as national security risks?

And, regardless, I don’t think your assertions are true either generally or specifically about Jews. The notion that Jews, or any other group, can never be truly part of the community in which they live is a horrific and fundamentally racist concept.

Except that the attacks on Jews for “dual loyalty” is, along with similar attacks on Asian Americans, uniquely situated in a context of bigotry and used as justification for violence. But why let history or context get in the way!

Do you not think Israelis and Jews are different

Oh. Oh, no.

So in case anyone doubted, trackAIPAC really should just be called TrackJewish, because to them all donations from Jewish groups are the same.

So all of you who believed them out of hand - you got conned.

People can still be mad about Nazis though

Those are Jewish groups

Or at a minimum kicking your feet and giggling over the terror of what appears to be a random and unnamed civilian, whose politics seem to be entirely unknown

Kinda sounds like you do support collective punishment, you just don’t want to say it.

Yeah the issue isn’t whether he’s “qualified” à la resume; it’s the alarming Nazi stuff

Banning Kalshi fixes this

I agree that Kalshi should be banned

Given these numbers, is it even possible for Crockett to win the general?

This question from a recent poll of Texas Dems is interesting (and surprising).

My “this is not an endorsement of collective punishment t shirt” etc.
