You're coming a looooong long way, MTG. Maybe it's time to study and read socialist theory, perhaps? https://redsails.org/
FUCK USA, FUCK ISRAEL AND FUCK IRAN regime! go fuck your selfs! People are dying for you to play games! fuck off. FUCK USA.\
Sooo...what exactly has changed? That still sounds like right and left to me.
Chuck Shumer is offended by your comment. But he's willing to upvote it so long as you promise to be cool with Israel.
Same. Aristocrats vs common people.
Uh what? In the US both sides are eager and chuffed to fight wars for the return of their imaginary Avengers superhero.

Yes but did Charlie consider that Trump would need a really bigly distraction from people talking about how he raped kids?

Martyr’d.

I think his friends call them underage women 🤮
A fast or slow clock, though, they can take a VERY long time to be right.
Ok. Yes. BUT.
You're against supporting Israel because you're antisemitic.
I'm against supporting Israel because I'm anti-imperialist and anti-war.
We are DEFINITELY not the same.

I don't even think it's (predominantly) her antisemitism that's causing this, because she definitely also (probably moreso) hates Muslims; it's her backwater isolationist mentality that the US should never help anybody but ourselves (totally ignoring how much helping others disproportionately helps us). I wrote a very large portion of Greene's article on Wikipedia in 2021, and one of the biggest throughlines for her support for Donald Trump in 2020 was isolationism ("America First").
It's also why Greene was outspoken against the US' invasion of Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro. An ardent anti-interventionalist is bound to occasionally be correct when the one intervening is an impulsive, reckless, bigoted, selfish imperialist.
I don't even think it's (predominantly) her antisemitism that's causing this
But it is definitely mixed in there. Make no mistake, she would happily see Israel bombed into oblivion so she can go straight to heaven on the rapture bus.
Timothy Snyder has talked about how anti-Semitism is going to be the weapon of choice for one faction of Trump's court as they position themselves for the post trump transition. JD Vance will pin all of Trump's crazy shit on Miller and then try to pin Miller on Rubio. Don't be surprised if "Israel is responsible for our imperial decline" becomes the post-MAGA "stab in the back theory" of the 2030s... That's why these fuckers LOATHE progressive anti-Zionist Jews like JVP.
People will be taking flags down that they have flown for the past 9+ years. It's important we remember who flew them
It's important to remember the neighbors who had maga flags. They get Molotov cocktails without warning.
WTH has gotten into her. Did someone hit her with a "reasonable" stick or something?
One must remember that this woman is an actual anti-semite and truly believes that the destruction of Israel will begin the apocalypse that will send all the good little Christians to heaven instantaneously.
That would be awesome, well not the apocalypse part, but it might be worth it. I'll give it a think.
She's probably trying to position herself for a leadership role after maga explodes in a great concussion of lies and flying turds.
That's horrifying.
I'm just glad I can use the abbreviation for Magic the Gathering again
She had a pretty big falling out with the president, and I'm actually surprised she followed through on her announcement to resign from Congress.
IIRC it's been the tug of war rope meme a few times with her in the later half of last year.
I think it was because she stayed just long enough to get some kind of pension from Congress.
I wish more politicians would step down after that duration in Congress.
She's changing her views a bit, but it took her family being personally impacted by the GOP healthcare changes and for Trump to condemn her questioning them surrounding said healthcare changes. She's making attempts to try to redeem herself I think. If she continues publicly expressing views like this, I'll commend her for the bravery it takes in admitting, "I was wrong," so long as all of this shit doesn't evolve into a political campaign.
Yeah, can't trust her as far as I can throw her and she looks pretty heavy.
There’s a lot of fracturing and internecine warfare in MAGA land. You can see some of this in Alex Jones struggling to figure out whether he’s still cool with Bannon or not.
There’s always been a split between the Nazi wing and the Christian Nationalists who support Israel because of their apocalyptic fantasies. You’ve also got the ones who only care about abortion, and the ones with Q and adjacent conspiracy theories. It’s an uneasy alliance.
MTG is a Q type. Anti semitism is part of it, but it’s more about the insane conspiracy theory world she lives in. She’s not being “reasonable” she just thinks Trump is on the evil Jewish laser team.
Either way she's, and I can't believe in saying this, sound reasonable. (shudder)
She's smelling the distrust around Trump (and his Epstein connection) and is now trying to distance herself from the cesspit that she built - maga. I would not trust this person. Remember what she was during 2020-2023. Do not forget.
Oh, I don't intend to support her in any way, I was just wondering if she had a reverse Fedderman or something.
She is an antisemite, so she is against Israel because she is against the Jews. Other people are against Israel because of their governments genocidic actions. They are not the same.
Yes but MAGA has no problem whatsoever from what I've seen...being both for something and against it at the same time.
Fuck off Marjorie. You don't get to be the "Jewish space lasers" lady and a critic of the GOP. Talking shit now doesn't make you look good, you just look willing to abandon your position when you think it'll score you points. Republicans truly know how to find the weakest, stupidest, least genuine humans among us.
I don't want to have or need health insurance... I want my taxes to fund Universal Healthcare, not wars.
I want my Gov to service my needs, and my neighbors needs, not to function as an entity that taxes the many and profits the already rich few.
but have you considered doing none of that and instead owning the libs?
A friendly reminder that just because a fascist and a Nazi has a disdain for Israel, they're still NOT allies. They're still a fascist/Nazi, they're not to be trusted and/or praised. The left, be they Libertarian Socialists, Marxist-Leninists, Maoists or Anarchists, support the Palestinian cause as it mirrors so many oppressors vs. oppressed dynamics throughout history. Muslims feel obligated to support their fellow Muslims in despair.
Fascists/Nazis oppose Israel out of their irrational hatred of Jews. There's no separation of the State of Israel and the global Jewish community; they're one and the same to them. They erroneously believe that they and Palestinian Arabs share a common enemy when, in fact, Palestine's struggle is against colonists oppression. Hamas and Hezbollah may spout antisemitic views but this an extension of their radical Islamism. If Fascists/Nazi had their way, Jews, Arabs and all other non-whites would share the gas chambers. They boast about bogus but widely believed antisemitic conspiracies: Rothschilds, George Soros, ZOG, Cultural Marxism, Great Replacement, so on and so forth. The Rothschilds and Soros are, indeed, pieces of shits but, once again, fascists/Nazis hyperfixate on their Jewishness.
The media will portray the global solidarity movement as in league with fascists and Nazis. We must make clear that fascists and Nazis are not welcomed. That is why it's important that we, under no circumstance whatsoever, make alliances with fascists/Nazis.
