Turns out, as far as the AFL and Greenblatt are concerned, you can say all of that and more as long as you are wiling to help Bibi commit genocide/ethnic cleansing and grab up all that land outside of Israel's legal borders.

rumpfillstillskin.bsky.social•77 days ago

Why would they say anything about him? Based on Trump's admin being Israel first, second and third, I assume he is a Zionist.

upine.bsky.social•77 days ago

Looks like they are MAGA allies.

webrant.bsky.social•77 days ago

It's as though Albert Einstein was right when he said zionism was just a new form of fascism.

realworldrj.bsky.social•77 days ago

Bari Weiss is pretty silent too. As are Beth Mandel, Elise Stefanik and Virginia Foxx. Wonder why that is. 🤔🤔

dinainmaine.bsky.social•77 days ago

Bibi has Nazi allies. It’s not so much pro-Israel and pro-Jews, as much as it’s anti-Arab and in the case of the ADL anti-Muslim.

227crw.bsky.social•76 days ago

That's what they do all the time. If they can't spin it, they won't talk about it.

realworldrj.bsky.social•77 days ago

Also where’s that crazy Columbia lecturer?

annelaura.bsky.social•77 days ago

A true mystery

terrifiedstill2024.bsky.social•77 days ago

That’s because his name is KASHYAP

mrniss.bsky.social•77 days ago

This just in to the newsroom: Greenblatt sucks and should have been fired years ago. But I guess the ADL likes all of the MAGA money that he's bringing in, antisemitism be damned.

lemurdreamer87.bsky.social•77 days ago

Weird indeed. If I didn't know any better, I'd think they're more concerned with stopping opposition to Israel than actual antisemitism, but that would just be silly. No reputable organization would conflate opposition to the actions of a nation with hatred of its dominant ethnic/religious group! /s

When people criticize Putin no one complains that they are anti-Russian orthodox. 🤨

brianmwise.bsky.social•77 days ago

I...

I feel like I should point out the obvious thing here which is that Kash Patel IS NOT A WHITE PERSON

I do not argue he was on the white nationalist podcast but then again KASH PATEL IS NOT A WHITE PERSON so what the actual fuck

brianmwise.bsky.social•77 days ago

Like I genuinely do not understand how you can be a person who, for example, is NOT a white person and then go onto a white nationalist podcast and think "oh hey, they make some really good points"

mjfgates.bsky.social•77 days ago

Start with the (reasonable) thought that neither party is actually going to end oppression, and then there's good money in being That One Minority Guy.

matte-gender.bsky.social•76 days ago

proximity to power gives you benefits, even if the power is against you. it’s not solely skin color, it’s how you can benefit whiteness

ilmariwalker.bsky.social•77 days ago

whiteness is a socially and politically structured identity, bith in its inclusion and exclusion over time and between cultures, and there is also a history of local racial hierarchies creating a collaborator class with colonialists. like this is not complicated or unprecedented.

alex.xskj.org•77 days ago

hateful ideologies always have exceptions for their little quislings, and if you're a particular type of slimy amoral coward you probably see that gig as a pretty good one

lemurdreamer87.bsky.social•77 days ago

And those exceptions are temporary and EXTREMELY conditional. But the kind of spineless, power-hungry cowards that are attracted to fascism aren't exactly known for their foresight.

How about Sen. Dems go ahead and vote on nominees during Lame Duck session???
You have the power Now!

rcopelander.bsky.social•77 days ago

Puzzling 🤔

notoriouscrk.bsky.social•76 days ago

And concerning.

furbies3.bsky.social•77 days ago

Why would a person of south asian descent be on a podcast hosted by a white nationalist ?

Aren't those 2 groups mutually exclusive ?

spot503.bsky.social•77 days ago

Apparently, Patel identifies as Mississippi bred White Nationalist.

isleofkal.bsky.social•77 days ago

🤣

ecualung.bsky.social•77 days ago

As illustrated in “The Plot Against America,” there have always been and always will be Rabbi Bengelsdorfs.

ilmariwalker.bsky.social•77 days ago

not really, no

apetivist.bsky.social•77 days ago

Fascism exists in various ethnic and religious groups. It's sad but supremacist thought isn't dependent upon the amount of melanin or lack thereof in one's genetic makeup.

furbies3.bsky.social•77 days ago

But wouldn't a "white nationalist/fascist" basically do any/every thing to be "separate" from someone who's not also a "white" nationalist/fascist ?

apetivist.bsky.social•77 days ago

I don't see what would keep them from doing temporary alliances. The idea is what happened between Germany and their alliance with Japan.

furbies3.bsky.social•77 days ago

I guess they could do some warped version of

The enemy of my enemy is my enemy (pro-tempore)

apetivist.bsky.social•77 days ago

It's an inconsistent ideology so of course they can

maggiegogo.bsky.social•76 days ago

This guy is like a crazed, wild eyed shark whose only motivation is the destruction of whatever is in front of him. Demented, dangerous, and dastardly. He’s an alliteration feast nobody wants to consume.
