MTG is absolutely an antisemite and not someone we need to give more airtime too. Don't care if she's railing against people I don't like.
PERFECT use of that meme format! 😘👌🏼
What part of “the California wildfires were started by space lasers controlled by the Jews” was antiemetic? /s (because we’re are living in that kind of timeline)
How many antisemmies does one earn if they subscribe to the conspiracy theory that the laser wasn't controlled by space Jews, just built by space Jews?
I agree, but she's still useful. We shouldn't just give up that utility because she's a horrible person. The other side is doing whatever they can to hold on to power, and we need to use whatever we can to stop them. Being too pure is how we let them take power in the first place.
Idk, that strategy can definitely backfire. I'm sure significant chunks of the GOP regretted backing the 'useful idiot' Trump once he grew too powerful to control. Maybe what we should do with their conspiracy theorists, grifters and propagandists, is starve them of attention?
Was it though? Was Biden too pure? Or are you saying that this all comes down to "PC culture"?
I really fear this angle. "we can use her" will effectively sane-wash this person and make her seem more reasonable to the less informed voters. I don't want a MTG presidency.
Never mind the GOP. Hillary fucking Clinton spent millions of dollars promoting Trump in the run up to the 2016 election, because she wanted to make the Republicans look more radical and dangerous, and Trump was the most radical, dangerous candidate in the race.
Thanks, Hillary. Good call.
I guess you're referring to this?
Hillary Clinton 2016 presidential campaign (Wikipedia):
Interestingly, the title of the mentioned AP article is "Clinton's 'nasty' Trump ads are mostly his own words" - it doesn't criticize the campaign's choice at all.
That is not something we can control. That's in them, not us.
He was too "safe" for sure. The left rarely is willing to get it's hands dirty. The right always is. They will use anything when it's useful to them, no matter how dirty it may be. If there's a tool that's useful to us, we need to be willing to pick it up.
Now, this all should be couched in language like "if the crazy space lazer lady understood this, you should be able to." It should always be reminding them she's insane, just that they must be too if she's this far ahead of them.
Useful how? Harris was wrong to spend so many resources trying to attract Republicans that she thought could be swayed away from Trump. She converted very few voters, and lost a lot of voters on the left. Why should we repeat that same mistake?
Using MTG aligns you with an antisemite, and if it attracts anyone to your cause, it will be more antisemites.
Not trying to attract them. To spread apathy. We need to point out that even his craziest supporters can see through him. The only ones not speaking out are the ones benefiting from it.
If they don't want to support a candidate on the left, that's fine. We need to just make them not vote. The right has trolls constantly saying people shouldn't vote for any Democrat candidate, no matter how closely they align with their views. Even AOC isn't enough seemingly. We need to be willing to spread the same apathy to them.
Lets be honest they havent paid her and she's salty thats all this is
The very word anti-semite kind of makes you suspect, Semitic peoples include the Arabs that is truth. So you are like tooled?
That's not what antisemite means, as you should well know:
Antisemitism (Wikipedia):
Languge doesn't always make perfect logical sense.
@bedwyr @BigGovernment Ahh, here's one now, like a bug irresistibly drawn to a zapper.
If by zapper you mean pointing out a word that is being misused that makes someone sound polarized and uneducated, then I agree!

I'll just copy-paste my earlier comment:
That’s not what antisemite means, as you should well know:
Antisemitism (Wikipedia):
Languge doesn’t always make perfect logical sense.
In order to divert the discussion away from the injustices of the occupation, the Israeli government now defines any person or organization who criticizes their policies as an anti-Semite.
While the word was coined by a racist German it never made any sense considering it is just adding anti to semitism.
It reminds me of a person who would misclassify what Antifa means to support government censorship.
You are right, language is interesting. Personally, I don't use propaganda from oppressive regimes, but to each their own.
@Doomsider Who even are you? Go away.
If by go away you mean point out a lame attempt to discredit someone thus showing your ignorance, then I agree!
@Doomsider
Seems pretty extreme to do to yourself, but go ahead if you insist.
Click the link dude. Doomsider is on your team for this one.
@FlyingCircus No.
Ok, then wallow in ignorance, I don’t really care.
@FlyingCircus Good talk.
First of all, @SalmiakDragon@feddit.nu is right. That's not what antisemitism means.
Second, what could possibly give you the idea that MTG isn't also bigoted towards Arabic people as well as Jewish people?
She absolutely is, but in this instance she is taking about Israel and she is right.
There's that insistence of Israel to equate Israel as the same thing as Jews and then when someone criticizes policies of the country call it anti semitism.
