I don't identify as a Zionist, and I don't agree with the choices of the founders of modern Israel. But I understand that things could have played out differently, and maybe a different path is still possible.

"The racist minister Itamar Ben-Gvir is a Zionist, but so are many of the Jewish and Israeli anti-occupation activists who volunteer to act as a “protective presence”, putting their own bodies between settler extremists and Palestinian villagers in the West Bank."

"There are rightwing Zionists who think it should be in all of that land; there are leftwing Zionists who think it should be broadly within the much smaller boundaries that existed before the 1967 war and alongside a Palestinian state. But both groups are Zionists."*

I'm considering leaving DSA over the anti-Zionist plank. Not all anti-Zionism is anti-Jewish, but a lot of is. Some people can be one without the other, but most people can't.

I'm REALLY uncomfortable with anti-Zionism used as cover for bigotry.

If you're in these states, *TODAY* is deadline to register to vote. Arizona, Arkansas Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas. Even if you think you've registered: doesn't hurt to check! And there's a lot happening across them. A thread with stakes on each. ⬇️

To defend Palestinians, it is critical to support Jews. If preservation of Palestinian lives comes at the cost of Jewish lives, the current deadlock will continue. Anti-Zionism is a trap.

The comment you were refuting was "We can defend Palestinian rights without denying the principle that Jewish self-determination is not racism." The only logical way to read you is that you're more interested in Jewish self-determination than defending Palestinian rights.

A great place to take this conversation

Your approach will not help Palestinians. You are attacking moderate Jews looking to influence Israeli police to benefit Palestinians. They are defusing claims that protecting Palestinian lives is inherently anti-semitic.

In the Salem witch trials the major obstacle for the accused was that witches don't exist. They couldn't defend themselves against nonsensical charges. The Texan Antifa trials were the same: there is no Antifa for them to not be a part of so justice was impossible from the start.

Your own views on Israel are not the issue. Your right to think freely - to decide for yourself - is what matters.

I'm not even sure all the immigrant hate is about the land. I think maybe it's just about whiteness? That seems crazy now that I say it out loud, but, like, for example, what you're saying is so obviously true.

"Americans take for granted that even if a person is convicted of a crime, he or she cannot be subjected to cruel and unusual punishment, much less torture. Nor can anyone be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process. "

"Strong" is the wrong word. "Stronger than before", let's say.

We're coming down to the wire for the Nov 3 election. If you're going to help win this - or know you did what you could to prevent trumpism red in tooth and claw - now is the time. Tonight I'm doing training to be a poll observer on election day. To find ways to pitch in, go to mobilize.us

Spent the evening calling voters for a candidate. Man. That is not an easy job. I doubt I won a single vote.

There are many lives to give a shit about. We need to give a shit about Palestinian lives, and also Black lives. And trans lives. And the lives of immigrants in an ICE detention camp. And the lives of teen girls being forced to bear a child. You don't get a moral pass for being a purist.

Eventually MAGA will be gone and the charges will have been thrown out or reduced to the level of a parking ticket, but in the meantime these lives will have been reset.

Consider the crime: they voted. On the record. And pity them for what is about to happen to their life. "Venezuelan national Danubis Bernat, 49, a lawful permanent resident, voted in person. Additionally, Bernat was charged with making false statements while applying for U.S. citizenship."

To leftists sitting out the election because no candidate is a strong enough advocate for Palestinian lives, you are abandoning Black women.

They'll cover for the former POTUS but I don't think they'll do it for low-level crooks like whoever signed off on these propaganda films.

I heard similar nonsense from an American right winger. Quote: "they have more rights than we do"

We need to suffer like this to wake up from our stupor. Most of us have hardly changed at all!

@joshtpm.bsky.social This essay on strategy is up your alley. It argues for systematically attacking the power bases of the right.

"Car dealers are an incredibly reliable and influential power bloc for Republicans. Legalize direct-to-consumer car sales across every single state and pair this with robust right-to-repair laws, rendering dealerships less necessary."

"Republicans have been quite successful in undermining the power blocs of the Democratic party. When federal Democrats are in a position to pass laws again, that opportunity must be used to attack the body of Republican power on as many fronts as possible. "

Cautious Hope @goodwraith.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Astute and brutal strategy: attack Republican power bases like car dealerships, not because they are bad in themselves but because they are Republican. Like how MAGA is now assaulting universities.
