There are tens of millions of progressive Americans who want the Jews to die. Never forget that.
This is exactly what's driving the protests. They don't hate Jews, they hate whitey and "oppressive" capitalism. They're commies first and foremost and Israel just happens to be a convenient target at the moment.RebelE Infantry said:
This might be controversial, but I don't think the primary animus driving these protests is antisemitism per se.
I think it's more likely that these radicals perceive Israel as a "colonizer" and "white" nation oppressing minorities. Therefore it is driven more by anti-white hatred a la the BLM nonsense from 2020. The BLM monster has turned its ire on what it sees as another subset of "white people" rather than "Jews" simply because they are Jews.
It sounds ridiculous because in a sense it is, but that's how these radicals see it and since they are ridiculous it fits their internal logic.
Good question. The answer depends on whether or not the current gov't in Taiwan is friendly to Dems.Dan Scott said:
In a China/Taiwan conflict who would be the oppressed/oppressor in that that conflict.

this hits the nail on the head. there are definitely leftists who have adopted antisemitism as a result of this framing of the gaza war, but for the most part the antisemitism isn't the underlying cause.RebelE Infantry said:

All it would take is a little nudging (and planning) from the FBI and they could make some arrests...but that wouldn't be helpful to Dems in an election year.BTHOB-98 said:
My biggest fear from this is that some of these protestors get increasingly radicalized to the point of violence. Whether that be shootings or bombs. It's a legitimate fear.

They want conservative whitey to fight back. They want to paint the backlash as MAGA Republican white nationalist terrorism so they can unleash the fed alphabet agencies to seize bank accounts, make arrests, and have news clips to play 24/7 to scare the public away from voting conservative while making it clear that resistance will be crushed.Logos Stick said:
They also want conservative whitey to die. I'm more concerned about that.

Whichever side we are programmed to hate.
This is opportunistic lefty protests that may have started out using the fig leaf of "palestinian genocide", but underneath it's the same malcontents that (think) they want a "socialist revolution"Quote:
At a far-left rally for Gaza at George Washington U @GWtweets, an extremist on the microphone says: "There's only one solution, intifada revolution. We must have a revolution so we can have a socialist reconstruction of the United States of America."
Good point. They're hoping for another Charlottesville.HumpitPuryear said:They want conservative whitey to fight back.

Well there are about 500K "newcomers" that think just like them and we have very little idea where they are day to day.BTHOB-98 said:

Ironic that American Jews would find the safest havens among southern white Christian men.Muy said:

It is ironic that Jews are really punching above their weight in this movement of DEI and hatred of the West.Muy said:

Imagine explaining to them they were just about to walk into machine gun fire so that one day people back home could chant "Death to America" and have their student loans forgiven by a president who was recently found mentally unfit to stand trial for corruption pic.twitter.com/OYbnFqg9C3
