Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

If only he worked to improve their material conditions instead of using billions to fund a fascist apartheid state's genocide
The Jews support him because he supports Israeli. They also have a lot of money, Jewish househoulds have higher income than white and asian households. About 100K vs 80K for asians, vs 68K for whites.
You have your causation backwards. He is representing their interests. He is working to improve their material conditions. They are already rich and he is making them richer.
Oh so you don't even hide being pro-genocide. Absolutely disgusting.
Even if the Jewish people of NY were monolithic in support for Israel, which they aren't, that's not an excuse to be pro-genocide.
Not to mention the over vast majority of all the other constituents that DO care about affordability and DON'T want to fund genocide.
oh wait, was i suppose to pretend the genocide doesn't exist or something?
it doesn't matter if they are monolithic or not, the ones with the money largely are.
follow the money.
Christian Zionists far outnumber Jewish Zionists. Conflating Zionism and Judaism is antisemitic.
No ordinary person benefits from genocide, Jewish or not. Only the capital owners, who are heavily invested in military profits. Which they would do on the basis of being a capital owner.
sorry what are we talking about now? now we are talking about Christian Zionists?
I thought we were talking about chuck schumers support as a senator of a state with the largest jewish population in the USA and why he gets lots of money for being pro israeli in that state?
He's incredibly unpopular with his constituents
It's Zionist lobbies that have paid him over 1.7 million
YOU were the one falsely claiming that he was funding Israel's genocide because of the the Jewish population of NY
Idk if you already knew and were just engaging to fight the anti-semitism, but "follow the money" especially in reference to "the rich ones (Jews)" is literal neo-nazi dogwhistling. Just pointing out that you won't get anywhere productive with that one unless you plan on using a loaded gun as your primary means of communication.
I've completely lost what your point is.
I don't give a shit what the ones with money want. Well, not more than any other person. I also don't give a shit if Schumer does care more. The point is that his take is absolute garbage.
He's a literal neo-nazi or at least is co-opting neo-nazi dogwhistles to spread neo-nazi ideology. "follow the money" in reference to "the rich ones (jews)"
Bro deserves to be killed.
