This backpedal comes right after meeting with AOC and Bernie Sanders. The two have rubbed their shitlib off on him. Previously he seemed to not be totally for or against (could have generously been seen as "hiding his power level") but now clearly against the phrase.

I still hope Zohran wins though. Him losing would be a big win for the pieces of shit in the media and in power looking to prove that even suggesting Israel might be doing something wrong is forbidden.

This "I didn't know what my words could mean to some people" is so ridiculous OF COURSE YOU FUCKING KNEW YOU SAID IT BECAUSE YOU WERE STANDING FOR SOMETHING, there's no way people don't see through this bullshit

YOU SAID IT

i thought he didn't, it's an antizionist slogan with a scary arabic word the media worked overtime to associate with him because of the less flashy, libbed up antizionism he's espoused--"israel has a right to exist as a state with equal rights" doesn't make the bush era racism dogs bark

yeah he was on some "i don't say that but i won't tell other people not to say it" and now he's slid all the way to "i would discourage"

they're not going to stop until he says "israel has a right to genocide and my first mayoral trip will be to kiss netanyahu's ring" but they're still trying to find the correctly-worded concession that will make the media stop framing him with racist dogwhistles. forget supporters getting the fell-for-it-again it's the campaign managers
