I think it helps to have a nuanced opinion and make sure we don't spiral into an echo chamber. For my example, I've found that lefties are able to identify a lot of the right problems, it's just that they think gay space communism is the solution to it.
For instance, I completely agree that North American cities are really stupidly designed. The car-centric nature of them means you're stranded if your vehicle breaks down. The fact that you have to go into debt to buy this big stupid box to navigate your own city is ridiculous in the first place.
But when it comes to their solutions for this they can't separate their stupid idpol nonsense from it. My local city government keeps talking about "equitable solutions" to traffic and pedestrian fatalities. Typical "world ending, women most affected" type stuff.
Plus they keep droning on about high density housing which absolutely no one wants to live in. in their utopia we'd all live in depressing Soviet-style block apartments.
The left is anti-israel because they believe jews are white, and thus are filtering the israel/palestine conflict through all the anti-white bullshit they've been taught. The israelis are 'white oppressors', the palestinians are 'oppressed people of color', that's the depth of their understanding. They don't know about the talmud, mossad, AIPAC, or everything else that dom will ban me again for reiterating.
To be fair, there are a LOT of jews on social media who flip flop on being White or Jewish to capitalize on whichever is most advantageous at that time. So I don't blame Leftists for having that point of view.
I can still point and laugh when they get hoisted by their own petard, though.
As you should.
Its unironically the Jewish word game abuse they invented working against them.
Because Jewishness is both an ethnic group and a religion depending on what's more beneficial at the time for them to say.
In the same way "white" is both a color designation (which Jews would fall under) and a cultural/ethnic group that they hate (which Jews reject being a part of).
So now they get lumped in because their own golems aren't willing to play 20 questions when they see pink skin, they just assume "white" and go to attack.
Exactly, instead of being just against Israel, the woke feminist left promote and support Palestine. Which is just as bad. Just like TERF, the basis of this support is their seething hatred of white men.
TERFs are a good comparison; the left stumbled into the correct position, but for all the wrong reasons. TERFs hate trannies because TERFs are feminists, hate men, and worship women. The left hates Israel because they're imperialistic, successful and, yes, allegedly "white."
They only hate trans women, not trans men. They don't care if trans men invade male spaces. They OK with it. Just like the left are ok if muslims invade Israel and the western world. Gays for Palestine remember?
Nobody cares about FTM transsexuals because they're not a threat. They combine the physical strength of a woman with the social strength of a 5'2" manlet.
"Even a stopped clock" and all that.
That's definitely part of it, but I think it's more "power dynamics," underdog mentality, oppressor vs oppressed, class struggle, imperialism, and all that bullshit.
"White" is a a part of it...but they hate Israel because Israel is objectively successful. Love Israel or hate Israel, but there's no denying they're successful, impressively so. We can discuss how and why, and with whose money they're successful, but the pro-Israel narrative that they're almost miraculously strong in the region is true. They pull off some incredible feats in their conflicts, fairly regularly. Inhumane, but incredible.
The left hates Israel for the same reason they hate the West; Israel is more successful than the 'poor and downtrodden.' It's just more communism, just more class struggle. The left hates Israel for all the wrong reasons.
I'm glad you put that qualifier there.
