True, edited language slightly

True, the early compromises were unfortunate because of how big they were! I can only hope that the small fries wins builds a strong foundation or something.

It definitely sucks that we’ll have to see Jeffries stupid face until the next elections.

Thanks! Stupid paywalls though I found an article that speaks of it. Though its less about Mamdani endorsing Jeffries and more that he didn’t endorse a DSA member.

I don’t know, on one hand, I definitely want AIPAC Shakur replaced by a DSA member. On the other, I don’t know if Oche would have had a big chance of winning against.

The article I shared was already talking about Mamdani pushing for Goldman to be ousted even back then, and we’ve seen results there. I think the article I shared shows some practicality of consolidating power in an area and expanding from there.

I think you’re talking about the guy who was a soldier and has a Nazi tattoo that he claims that “he didn’t know” what it stood for

Oh? I thought it was the other way around - Jeffries endorsed mamdani (albeit begrudgingly). Do you have link?

I’m sorry, him calling the IDF moral?

When asked about the IDF, Alexander stated that they were humane and noble, stating “some of the finest, most humane, most admirable, most noble-serving soldiers that I’ve ever seen” and that “there can never be any doubt that I am also an advocate for Israel”

There’s nothing absolute in saying someone who says the above is a hardcore Zionist.

If you want to dig deeper into the silly little nonprofits he supports, they’re the same bullshit veneer of advocating for a two state solution but not actually listening to Palestinian voices or pushing the needle in Israel in the slightest.

He’s the average liberal Zionist who thinks apartheid is fine and that it can be reformed - this has been the biggest cover for the worst of Zionism.

And if you don’t think of any level of Zionism (an ethno supremacist, colonial, and genocidal ideology) as hardcore, then that’s on you.

Nor does Jason Alexander (aka George costanza) - he’s a diehard Zionist

This is the most political-history ignorant comment I’ve read in a very long time.

How do you think people have rights?

Oh, the country that’s been literally counting the calories entering the Gaza strip for many years and purposefully having it less than the required daily intake of the population is starving Palestinians?

Here’s a report about it from 2012 using declassified documents:

Sure, and he said that he’s going to show them his vision, allay their fears, and change their minds, right?

I’m sorry, can you explain the issue of him acknowledging the lived experiences of people?

Do you have an actual example instead of platitudes?

So what’s so bad about Mamdani?

I keep asking, but nobody answers!

Don’t fall for the hasbara that Israel spreads.

Hamas is only one of many resistance groups in Gaza. And the ideologies range massively from far left to far right. It’s how they’re able to sustain a prolonged resistance against Israel’s constant aggression.

Focusing on Hamas’s leadership - they have been mostly centrist and advocate for equal rights of all, with outliers that are more right wing and Israel repeatedly kills off the moderates in the party for a reason. Israel wants the hardwingers to be more prominent. Israel even wanted to bring back Ahmedenijad as president of Iran and that guy is the poster child of “death to the infidels”.

You’re also equating Palestinians with Hamas too, don’t do that.

Hmmm…i wonder what went wrong with an ethnocentric nationalist political ideology that was created in the mid-late 1800s. It’s almost like something similar to that in an established state already tried to implement it to the detriment of many people.

The working class struggle and the genocide are the same struggle.

The context of the post and comment are about liberal zionism, and the extended context is that a liberal zionist is just as bad as a fascist, which is true. The big common denominator (amongst many other things) being genocide.

Israel has been largely headed by liberal zionists for the majority of it’s genocidal colonial history so far. It’s only recently that the rightwing have gained the majority they enjoy now. And they both agree on the genocide, just differ on the optics and language used.

I think you misspelled “genocide”
