Why are so many Left Wingers anti-Israel/Pro-Palestinian?
I think it's more like, why aren't more of them, at least in this country?
Tenants of liberalism are being against imperialism, militarism, religious superstition and racism. Yet the Zionist Entity is all of those things, an Apartheid State that only survives by keeping its boot on the neck of Islamic Majority, and using "God" as an excuse to do so.
I remember back in the 80's when I used to be a Young Conservative, and we had some whiny, snivelly liberal Jew I knew in college trying to score points with some of the black kids by denouncing South Africa and Apartheid. And then I asked the question, "Well, how is that any different than what Israel does to the Palestinians?"
Dead. *******. Silence.
Now, I don't consider myself liberal. I consider myself a pragmatist. I also am a pretty ******* militant atheist. As in, if I had my way, we'd close down every house of worship and give kids instructions about why there is no magic man in the sky.
Zionism offends me because you have a group who think that they are the Magic Sky Pixie's special people and they have the right to **** over everyone else. It's the kind of attitude that really gets them in trouble from the Romans to Hitler. And they keep ******* doing it.
Now, I stopped believing in magic sky fairies after my mom prayed for her cancer to get better and it didn't.
