We aren't voting our way out of this

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

That would be so great.

Primaries. There are Dem candidates here and there who are progressive and don't take AIPAC money.

“She’ll turn Karnes ICE Detention Center into a prison for American Zionists and former ICE officers for human trafficking,” Democratic candidate Maureen Galindo said on Instagram, referring to herself in the third person.

“It will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles, which will probably be most of the Zionists,” she said.

that's a weird way to describe the castration thing

That's a weird way to describe endorsing another candidate who wants to send weapons to genocide Muslims in a concentration camp

[–] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

they let candidates who name it genocide and call for an end to military aid. it's the other things she's said that are too far, including old tropes.

she's better than the zionist cop, but i'm not over here trying to support a bunch of "jews control the media" types either.

You don't have to support anything. You only have to acknowledge that in no way is anything she said worse than supporting the full scale genocide of Muslims. Do show where she said "Jews control the media". We've seen this exaggeration smear campaign against Corbyn already where people just replace or change whole quotes to make everything sounds antisemitic.

I don’t think they’re after her for wanting to castrate pedophiles.

they are actually. Epstein candidates have been on a tear, getting millions in AIPAC funding and establishment backing. The pro-pedophile empire strikes back

i think they're civility-pilled because they're liberals and between that and the "jews own hollywood" type comments they all dropped their monocoles into their wine glasses
