This is such a weird stance for American companies and politicians. It truly blows my mind. You can say whatever you want about Americans or anything here. You can even say the president is a pedophile and it's fine (even if it wasn't true) but the second you say something bad about Israel because they suck everyone starts flipping their shit.
It's like our whole country is secretly run by Israel or something.
How is nobody calling out the fact that millions of Americans think that creating the State of Israel is supposed to fulfill their sadistic, hateful, apocolyptic prophecy fantasy of eternal punishment for people that dare to test their fickle faith. This is a large part of why this world sucks right now. Other than this simple quagmire, world control is about the almighty profit, but this is where these Americans will act counter to profit.
Its like the ruling class of our country is being blackmailed by Israel.
FTFY
No. Well, maybe, but also much worse.
Careful buddy. This is an antisemitic trope. The real reason is much simpler. America is just a really evil imperialist entity that will back a fascist settler colonial state in the middle east for geopolitical/oil reasons rather than it being controlled by Israel.
Israel has no ability to control America. Its population is too small and it is almost entirely dependent on US support. If America says jump Israel says how high. America is weird about Israel because it desperately wants to be and it desperately wants to be because the countries voiced ideals do not match is actual reality.
I didn't say it's run by Jews I said Israel. If you haven't noticed Israel is a country that is separate from ours and has been acting horribly. I am allowed to call that out. Don't start that bullshit. Not all Jewish people agree with Israel they use that as an excuse to cover their atrocities and you are only helping them.
If Israel has no control here why does our president do everything their president asks him to? Seems like they have some form of control even if its not stated explicitly
uh huh
Man if only Israel got punished by the US for doing that and continued to act like a rabid dog proving your point rather than getting a free pass proving my point that Israel is they way that it is because America wants it to be that way.
You think its weird America is fascist? Have you been paying attention to anything the past forever?
With you so far.
DANGER WILL ROBINSON: That's cutting it pretty darn close to the whole Jewish cabal bullshit. Your country is not secretly run by Israel. It's run by reactionary old farts, who's more afraid of being called antisemitic, than they value human rights.
No it's not. You are equating Israel to all Jewish people. That's offensive!
Uh, mods? The comment that I'm replying to was very obviously not antisemitic.
Is the obvious intended parsing of it.
No I'm not. I'm saying it's close to the rhetoric from 100 years ago, not the same.
To whom? I personally find it offensive, that you would try such a cheap trick to end this argument. Purposefully misinterpreting my comment in an attempt to get me to look antisemitic? Seriously?
