There’s no other entity that controls both the republicans and the democrats leadership that has enough power to block the release of the Epstein files other than Israel government and AIPAC…. Kind of makes sense…
(Not a fan of Cucker Tarlson at all.) Edit: but he’s not stupid
I think you're leaving out the international bourgeoisie from that estimation.
In such a dynamic way? What do you mean by that phrase?
the comment you posted reads uncomfortably like a "jews rule the world" post. I'm not saying that's what you meant, I'm saying it kind of seems that way when removed from the context of critique of captialist imperialism, which is what perpetuates Israel
No. Sorry. Neither you nor Israel gets to use antisemitic arguments accusations, whatever you want to call them anymore.
This is not my idea. This is Tucker Carlson’s idea.
This has nothing to do with tropes about Jews controlling the world. The Israeli government is not, nor will it ever be (thank God, if there is one) a spokesperson for the Jewish faith.
No one who has any sense wants to be a bigot except for people like Netanyahu.
For years and years, living in the United States, I’ve heard democrats calling every single republican politician who runs for office a racist and a sexist. At a certain point, the word loses its meaning, even if we get a real racist or sexist in power.
In the case of Netanyahu we have a literal racist, sexist, terrorist as the leader of the Israeli government. He’s a fucking terrorist. He fucking murders babies knowingly and without remorse to bring fear to the Palestine folks while intentionally starving them.
You seem genuine in your attempt at discussion, I don’t like down voting people I talk to but definitely let me know if or how you disagree.
I hope you are doing well.
Edit: oh… if you’re wondering why I’m mentioning the ongoing genocide in Gaza perpetuated by Israeli government you are either intentionally ignorant or you only watch cable news? May not be “you” but just sayin
lmao what??
The genocide in israel is a consequence of capitalist western imperialist policy going back to the british founding of "israel" and the aftermath of ww2.
I have no clue what your point was here. Do you think I like the democrats or republicans, or for that matter netanyahu? I think you've got a wildly off base assumption of people's feelings around here, we do not like either capitalist party in america, and certainly not netanyahu
You said this, not tucker carlson. This is a foolish, flawed analysis that ignores the capitalist hegemony in and for which israel was developed at best, and outright, legitimate, antisemitism at worst.
That is not a true statement, because it is captialism which controls these systems, not some jewish cabal, which is the only reasonable assumption implied by the words you chose to use
So wtf??
I don’t think the Israeli government or Netanyahu is intentionally being antisemitic if that’s what you’re suggesting. But they are being antisemitic through their obviously racist genocidal policies and statements.
The backlash of real and genuine antisemitism is going to rise because of these terrorists.
But if it’s not really that big of a deal they could release the files. I wouldn’t even care about it that much if our media and politicians were not adamantly suggesting we focus on other issues lol.
But, if you don’t think our congressmen and congresswomen in the United States are bought and paid for by aipac Israeli government interests you’re either ignorant or full of 💩.
Which one is it? If it is ignorance I’m sure there are plenty of articles on Lemmy that can help you expand your knowledge and grow.
You are also ignoring my main point that Israel is not Judaism. The Israeli government is currently a terrorist, genocidal, colonial, apartheid government that murders children for no other purpose than to expand their territory, that they incidentally murdered Palestinians to obtain.
Jews are pretty cool. Israel is not the Jews. Nor will it ever be.
Whaaat? no! I think that the words YOU SAID are antisemetic, and incorrect
These words. This is incorrect, you have it backwards. It is capitalism, and the systems which hold it in place, that do these things.
No I'm not! We agree about that! However, your analysis that Israel is in charge of US capital, is incorrect, and your words are very similar to very common antisemetic bullshit that you see everywhere, often said by people who DO think that israel = all jewish people
correct
correct
Idk, I think you and I are just talking past each other here, I am flabbergasted because each of your replies was completely unrelated to the things I was trying to say, not sure if I just fucked up my explanations or WHAT but
No. AIPAC controls Washington. If all you have is some antisemitic argument gtfo of here. You would literally have to be a moron to believe otherwise.
Israel is committing genocide right now.
It’s pretty obvious.
How dare you defend genocide and suggest I’m antisemitic. Get out of here with your bs
You are offensive.
israel does not control the US. the tail does not wag the dog
Okay but the dog looks like this lately
I don’t think you can reasonably say at this point that the US’s actions re: Israel are in the US and its empire’s best interests. Israel is far and away the greatest risk to US hegemony and security.
Allowing (and encouraging) Israel to do what it’s been doing does not make sense if your goal is to prolong and expand American power.
Republicans are scum and calling them racist and sexist is accurate. You sound like a ”both sides” lib who wants to desperately believe that some Republicans are respectable and/or present racism and sexism as acceptable as long as it's done in a more muted way.
The issue isn't what you meant. The issue is how your words might be twisted. Antisemitism - actual antisemitism - might be on the rise now, thanks to Israel's bloodlust.
