Capitalism in Decay

After asking how U.S. involvement in Israel and Syria helps “your average American,” Rousseau claimed that “a lot” of people “who run the government” are Jews. Shields interrupted, referring to Jews as “dual citizens” and falsely claiming that “if you’re Jewish you’re automatically a dual citizen of Israel.”

While Jewish people have a right to immigrate to Israel and become citizens under the Law of Return, Jews are not “automatically” citizens of Israel.

After Shields complained that U.S. taxpayer money was being used to fund foreign wars instead of disaster relief, Rousseau bragged about his organization’s efforts to help people impacted by Hurricane Helene. Patriot Front was one of several explicitly white supremacist and [neo]fascist groups which attempted to co-opt Hurricane Helene for their own propaganda purposes.

When Rousseau accused the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) of “mishandling the issue,” Shields claimed that a “dual citizen was the head of that.” Shields was most likely referring to FEMA’s director of public affairs who became a target of antisemitic rhetoric and conspiracy theories in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

Shields praised Rousseau and Patriot Front for its work, but asked if they “help all races.” Rousseau replied that they “prioritize, almost to the exclusion of all others — practically to the exclusion of all others — our own people.”

Rousseau told Shields this proved that the ADL will “side with Jews no matter what they do. They could be the most despicable man in the world, which Leo Frank is certainly in the running if he isn’t number one. They’ll side with them and they’ll call anyone who disagrees that you’re an antisemite.”

On the contrary, I am pretty sure that the ADL won’t side with the many lower-class Jews in North America, let alone the anticolonial ones. It is almost a meme organization.
