Reading this is actually quite enlightening as this racist windbag basically repeats every racist islamophobic chauvinist talking point I have seen made by "pro-Palestine" anti-resistance westerners.

A very long slopfest of drivel. I have just posted a tiny selection. But if while you read it you find yourself agreeing with aspects of it then maybe its time for self reflection.

"We must protect the women from Hamas" 😆

Okay Bromma shut the hell up.

The enemy of our enemy is not necessarily our friend. For the US Left, this is so obvious in our domestic politics that it goes without saying. There’s a growing trend of insurgent fascists who believe that the US government is oppressive, and they are trying to overthrow it. But nobody thinks that makes them our allies.

Hamas are not fascists. I can barely get past the first paragraph, the entire fucking thing is based on the assumption that the reader accepts the premise that they are with no explanation or justification for this. It takes for granted that this is a fact when it absolutely is not.

Nevertheless, in the arena of global politics there’s a strong tendency by Western leftists to treat any enemy of Western imperialism as our friend: to soft-pedal the political differences we have with reactionary political forces—including opportunist dictators, other imperialists, corrupt ex-revolutionaries and right wing insurgents—as long as they criticize or conflict with Western imperialism for any reason. One of the most damaging aspects of this reflexive tendency today is the failure to recognize and confront what revolutionary women (and some other Left theoreticians) have exposed as a growing “anti-imperialist” version of fascism.

Imperialism is the primary contradiction in the world. Anti-imperialism first. Yes that includes reactionaries.

Being anti-anti-imperialism is just being pro-nato and pro-US. This person's ideology is nato-"leftist".

The fundamental contradiction that has driven political and social struggle in Palestine for generations is the contradiction between Western imperialism, spearheaded by Zionist settlers, and the unceasing Palestinian struggle for self-determination.

Imperialism and anti-imperialism. He's only saying more words here to make it sound different.

These two fascist forces have a sort of perverted synergy, each contributing to the success of the other, as I will discuss below.

Again, hamas are not fascism.

Murderous Zionist militias operate freely in the West Bank and Israel itself; they openly threaten to impose a fascist theocracy on Palestine and beyond. The Israeli government itself has essentially surrendered to fascism. At the same time Hamas, a fascist movement based on genocidal antisemitism, misogyny, parasitic capitalism, hatred of the Left, and Islamist theocratic totalism, has become a major force in Palestine. These two fascist forces have a sort of perverted synergy, each contributing to the success of the other, as I will discuss below.

Most of this is just wrong. It really shows that this dude is either a racist or an op, or acting very knowingly in bad-faith. Even most average people understand more nuance than this let alone any leftists that actually read. It seems terribly out of touch.

Hamas (along with its armed struggle partners) is clearly a seriously outgunned insurgent force. They have no capacity yet for the kind of massive genocide the Zionists are practicing. But that doesn’t change the goals or the violently reactionary reality of Hamas’ ideology, politics, and actions.

Oh fuck off. I'm done reading here. This is exactly the same argument as dipshits were making about South Africa, claiming resistance would perform a genocide afterwards. This dude is a toolbag.

EDIT: Holy fuck how much more did this dipshit write.

"Corrupt" is used as such an irritating thought-terminator when it has no meaning by itself. Corrupted by what? The way most people use it is just a marvel-brained "they were good but then they turned evil", i fuckin hate it

Every successful revolution is corrupted, every unsuccessful revolution is pure.

Tenet 1:17 of the nato-"leftist" bible.

Radlibs love doing the thing where the revolution becomes evil because they didn’t hold hands and sing kumbaya with violent frothing fascists who wanted to kill them

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

You're not supposed to kill the fascists who have been killing you, you're supposed to lower the gun and say something about not being like them, and then they call you a fool and lunge at you one last time but the ground crumbles underneath them and they fall into the lava and still end up dead but without you having to do anything.

I don't know if this is even true because they were falling all over themselves to be first in line to support ISIS taking over Syria

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

There is definitely an implied "leftist" whenever I say revolution.

[–] fannin@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sure but they think it was one.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I believe they know what it was and supported it knowingly, because what they actually support is nato and imperialism. They are not good faith actors.

Some children and young people get deluded. But an "old head" like this is less credulous and the positions they take are done so knowingly in bad faith.

This dude belongs in the same box as Zizek. Not to be trusted under any circumstances. Would be willing to work with Radio Free.

That's probably all correct tbh

"they'll do to us what we did to them!"

because surely, they're ontologically worse than us and if we're monsters, they must be bigger monsters!

did the oppressed, after throwing off the imperialists ever do as much to their former oppressors as the imperialists did to them?
