Last week: we're supposed to be upset over further funding the forever-war in ukraine and another one in isreal/palestine
This week: leftist protesters also start protesting the same things, and we're supposed to be...against them?
So are we supposed to be for the forever war now because leftists are against it?
Just something suspicious about the whole thing.
OR we could not become reactionary dogs chasing metaphorical cars, stand back, evaluate the situation, and realise both sides are retarded.
The left are retarded because they think Palestine/Hamas is the victimised minority when they literally attacked them first.
The establishment right are trying to use our annoyance and dislike of the useful idiots left to bait us to react opposite to their messaging.
It's really dumb, just campaign no involvement and let the middle east sort it out themselves same with Ukraine. We're actually getting close to the same with Taiwan only because the window for China to do a successful invasion of the island is shrinking rapidly.
I think this is close to the truth; the uniparty thinks we're so dumb that we'll just do the opposite of our enemies (although they might be correct when it comes to Boomers).
I gotta hope that they miscalculated this one, otherwise we really do deserve the government we get.
The establishment is going to do their war whether we support it or not. There is no calculation here. They are just trying to use their propaganda to demoralize us into accepting it.
I’ve already started seeing this with smooth-brains on the right. Hur dur, the commies are pro-Palestine. I have to support America’s greatest ally™.
Ah yes the Boomers, they could be the concern group here in this.
We can only hope that they are at that 'too old for this shit' level by now so they don't interfere, as right now I'm noticing a pattern of pointing and laughing while eating popcorn from the right and centrists as the left and establishment eat each other.
We're talking about two rival tribes of sand people who have been fighting each other for centuries and are both in the habit of crying out in pain when they strike, so you can't really tell who started it. Just nuke them both from orbit, it's the only way to be sure congress stops funding both sides of that eternal war.
Nothing but upsides to this situation. College kid shock troops getting their heads bashed? Great. The even greater animus against annoying Jewish liberals as a result? Great. Democrat civil war? In this moment, I am euphoric.
"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." There it is.
It gives me so much schadenfreude to watch Ivy League jewfro leftists wringing their hands about a blockade of brownie antifa leftists and their so-called allies. "What do you mean the oppressed peoples of the world aren't doing what we tell them to?" The jewfros are correct, of course. Taking over a building is textbook stupid behavior and it only works because academic institutions implicitly encourage it. Civil disobedience this ain't. So I hope they disrupt the campuses as long as possible and get clobbered as hard as possible.
The Israelis are doing horrible things to the Palestinians, but antifa tactics are not going to work because, in fact, they need the backing of the establishment to work.
All that being said, anti-Semitism is devalued every time it's invoked against pro-Palestinians. They are not going away. This whole thing is the gift that keeps on giving.
I wouldn't say nothing but upsides. They're using this to push more "antisemitism" laws and no doubt they'll figure out more ways to take advantage of it which is always bad for us.
That's true, but the foremost violators of unconstitutional anti-Semitism laws (if they actually get anywhere) will be leftists. Normally criminal behavior from the left would be tolerated under anarcho-tyranny, but they cannot afford to let them go in this case and actually they have to annihilate them with even more prejudice than straight white men because leftists are essentially saboteurs and will eat their organizations from the inside out. Unfortunately, these people have been designed as zombies and will never stop attacking. The fire in the liberal dumpster is guaranteed to grow out of control.
always with the golems getting out of control, huh?
Accidentally read that as "foreskin violators" in a sort of freudian misread lol
That should have happened a decade ago when SJW-ism started flourishing. Only now where there's millions more illegals, their seniors holding power in a lot of institutions that the upper echelon wants to have fail, and continuing more foreign entanglements by our corrupt government. Only now when the establishment doesn't want their golem to lash out.
Who is saying "so now we're supposed to be for the firever-wars?"
He's saying we are suddenly pro-war by conflating "we should stop going to war" with "we should stop foreign countries going to war".
It's not contradictory to be anti-war, but also think "Not our war, not our problem".
Those lefties on campus aren't protesting against the war, they're protesting against Israel winning the war. They'd be just fine if they were losing, don't get their obsession with "muh victims" confused with being anti-war.
I haven't seen very many people mocking these idiots also suddenly support the billions to Israel or Ukraine unless the supported that beforehand.
Your first mistake is calling what is happening in Gaza a "war".
I guess it's a "war" in the same sense that 2001 Afghanistan or Iraq II were.
I reject the whole notion that I'm "supposed" to be for or against anything. Media and political parties are not the bosses of how I think or what I support.
O'Keefe's hidden videos show there are deliberate efforts to get people outraged and focused on what they want the public to be focused on.
Good strategy, except for people not doing shit about anything either way. But there's no objectives like stacked objectives, so the public focusing on something you control is a convenient way to snag their eyeballs for the next psyop when it's ready.
Show me who's saying that. No, I'm serious! I want to know what kinda fucking idiot is saying that!
Feels like a strawman to me. The most ardent shill pushing war is just parroting Fox News pro Israel propaganda talking points and is typically the most down voted comment in any thread they stick their nose into.
/c/thedonald
Yeah... I got nothing...
The only people saying it are people who were supporting the aid to Israel before these "protests"
The fact that the protests erupted around the same time the TikTok ban bill was signed tells you everything you need to know. The Biden Administration wants to seize TikTok without looking bad during a critical election year, so they're manufacturing a crisis. The solution will be "seize TikTok."
Above a certain IQ threshold it's easy to hate both endless foreign wars and violent communist activists using the position of being against foreign wars as the current pretense for the revolution.
I am opposed to foreign wars and in favor of a Kent state type solution.
Negative partisanship is stupid.
"The left" can be right! Imagine of people said they wanted to back Ukraine because BAD OBAMA once said that Russia isn't the enemy.
i oppose them because they're not my problem, they oppose them because of gay shit like "power dynamics" and skin color.
we are not the same.
Yes. This is a pretty good indication that trump will get elected. Israel wants war with iran. The need american boys to fight it. Yound white men have not been enlisting. If trump is in office and we have some sort of "iranian" sponsored terrorist attack many more would enlist than would if biden or some other dem was in office.
Imagine not defending our allies after everything they did for the US.
"what do they do for us"... the obvious retort, and then getting bogged in a convo about something like how the money being given to isreal having to be spent on US companies' armaments somehow makes it anything other than only marginally better, when it's still terrible and they're still getting free stuff in effect. Might get stuck into a discussion about the USS liberty or Lavon affair too if someone is feeling spicy.
It's just so tiresome. Imp was far less predictable than this, it was creative, enjoyable to see how he'd twist it to be about women.
This is just low effort bait. We deserve better than this. Give us the imp.
Yeah I'm fine having people who disagree, but obvious shills like him should be banned imo.
his response is no different from mainstream conservative talking points
Is Imp permabanned or did he finally go outside unlike the rest of us idiots?
Even that is just broken window economics. We could still spend that money on something that's, you know, actual wealth that improves the lives of Americans.
Imported Galils and Jehricos, that's it.
Oh also field testing weapons systems for us on the cheap I guess.
With allies like them, who needs enemies?
Your "allies" are going to resettle Palestinian "refugees" in your neighborhood after they finish dropping bombs on them.
