I know it's hard to believe for some of you, but the average voter doesn't fucking care about Jews or Israel.
We're going into summer. Touch some fucking grass.
Antisemitism is a forced meme because dietrump or something. Same with racism being cool now because something something India or China. I can’t say there’s no rhyme or reason, because it has everything to do with the bad king in orange.

And they think we determine our beliefs based on him :story:
 
The biggest mistake the Retard Right makes is believing that Israel and the actions of western Jews are inexplicably linked. The reality is that most western Jews are not Zionists--they're ambiguous, at best, about Israel. If they believed in the concept of a Promised Land, they'd be living over their right now in a country that was explicitly carved out for them as an ethno-nationalist state. Balfour even admitted that this was to give them somewhere to go where they wouldn't act as subversives against the western empires. The logic was that if they had their own designated homeland, they wouldn't need to keep shitting up everyone else's place.

The problem was that modern Ashkenazis, especially, largely don't see Judaism as inherently tied up in the Holy Land. These are people who have no issue picking up and moving somewhere else if necessary and carrying on like they did where they used to live. Their Judaism is cultural and political, not geographical, and largely a marxist version that's only ceremonially tied to faith. Western Jews do Bar Mitzfahs for the same reason western Christians largely celebrate Christmas in an era where religious belief and church attendance is at an all-time low--it's a maintenance of a tradition that's tied to cultural identity, not as something that's considered important to strengthening religious faith. It's why you see so many Hollywood Jews in particular go on about how they're "spiritual, not religious" while talking about marinating in their Jewishness with no irony whatsoever.

The Retard Right's inability to separate Israel as an entity and distinctly political lobby from the subversiveness of western Jews in their own backyard, is a big reason why they keep getting politically marginalized every time they gain a modicum of media attention. "You're a communist fuckhead that hates white people" gains a lot more support from mainstream conservatives than "You're a filthy kike who's keeping the US a slave to Israel."
 
Wonder if Thomas Massie's political career would've survived if he had not gone against the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and became increasingly antagonistic with Trump over the Epstein files situation last year? Brandon Herrara was able to defeat a scandal-ridden AIPAC backed Congressman earlier this year and he isn't exactly the biggest fan of Israeli influence in American politics but at the same time he didn't anger the man who'd have the political power to destroy any chance he has of ever getting into Congress.
 
If Massie had kept his concerns over Israel to reasonable levels instead of sperging out and trying to court Fuentes humpers and actually voted for the shit his voters wanted him to like the BBB then I don't see any reason why he couldn't have coasted though another term.

He burned bridges for short term dopamine hits then backed it up with absolutely nothing of substance, of course he got blown the fuck out.

He absolutely would've have won if he hadn't. Don't get me wrong I'm an antisemite but Massie's loss has less to do with Jews and everything to do with him burning every bridge he had over the last couple of years.
 
So Bibi wants new elections?

Also what ever qualified Massie for office to begin with? He went to MIT and talked a lolbertartian game? Thats it?

I understand boomers love MIT. But its a liberal bughive and has been for awhile. Going to a major university like that should be an anti endorsement to be frank.

Politics has gotten so ridiculous that right wingers are now trying to claim territory over cute animal photos.

What is this?

Allegedly this is a huge L for the left because leftists can't make nature ugly, but is it really? This video goes on to list all the institutions that are leftoid dominated, from academia, to print media, to Hollywood, to every company HR department to even the bureaucracy of the Federal government. Those are five major institutions the right has failed to secure, if anything this whole "I call dibs on cute animal videos on the Internet" screams "I lost and have no territory left to guard." This asshole couldn't make a more demoralizing video if he tried.

If this is what discourse has been reduced to then what hope is there in something substantial like a border wall at this point? I'm still waiting for that pendulum to swing back, any day now.

>The left has no answer to this

Does the left even give a shit?
Leftists have written about this fuming that certain alt-right social media accounts mix extremist views with cute puppies or whatever. They did the same with anime.
I see a lot of far right guys retweeting from Japanese zoos. Anytime I click on an account from a far right guy who I don't know there's a solid chance 80% of his page will be like clips of otters or pictures of rare hummingbirds. Anytime I click on a leftist or libtard it's almost always 100% Drumpf and trans shit. Christian is just noticing a trend in aesthetics. You can say it's performative but it's noticeable. Nobody called dibs on anything, I think it's just a reflection of the difference between the two spaces and the values they hold.
how this maek u feel?

 
This comment perfectly describes some users here (ignore the anime pic). I wonder what does "goverment out of marriage" mean, polygamy?
No. No legal concept of marriage at all and it being a purely religious ceremony.

The current marriage arrangement is a net negative for men and you are an idiot to actually do it. If she is into you she will let you knock her up and live with you anyways.
 
But all states have no fault divorces already?
I am aware lmao.

It was also only introduced because of government involvement in the institution of marriage, and has since irrevocably fucked up how marriage works in this country. "Meh I'm bored, half of your money please!" was not a widespread issue until recently. You used to have to actually seriously commit to it unless it was genuinely abusive or unhealthy to be taken seriously in a court.

Gay Marriage. One version of the argument against it is the Government shouldn't be endorsing either, and since Marriage is a Christian institution that would immediately invalidate Gay "Marriages." What these people fail to understand is the left has spent the past 50 years corrupting churches just as much as everything else and the homosexuals would just find a corrupted Church to marry them. Hell, I'd half expect the current Pope to come out and marry a few personally just to stick it to the man.
