The Washington Post got the What’s App transcripts and multiple participants confirming the content of the chat. They then asked the mayor’s office about it and the spokesperson said that the question was anti Semitic.
Correction, they asked about the Zoom meeting (which they had the transcript and on the record participants):
Man pulled up with antisemitism to defend Zionists. You can’t make this up.
So AIPAC is antisemitic. You heard it here first, folks.
I really hope all of the people who kept blaming Biden are reading these articles.
Police departments report to the mayor. The President can deploy the National Guard to break up protests, like Trump did in Portland and DC. For the President to direct local law enforcement, they’d first need to declare a National Emergency.
90% of them are accelerationist. They never cared whether Biden was responsible for it or not. Portraying everything as being his fault suits their goals in getting the worst person elected. Hastening the crash of government and Society in the United States. Nothing more nothing less.
You will never have a good faith discussion or constructive discussion with any of these people. Again it’s not in their interests. They are all pushing a deadly dangerous agenda. And do not care who or how many people it will hurt or kill. They simply want to be the one hurting others instead of the ones being hurt. The absolutely do not care and do not want to make things better for everyone.
That said it is absolutely imperative to push back against these types anywhere you see them. Even if you don’t reach many. You may keep a few uninformed people from falling prey to similar radicalization.
You’re on the money. I push back every time I see it. It’s always the same thing. Downvotes without response when they’re presented with facts, just like the comment you replied to.
Yeah and I totally get where they’re coming from. I still understand it’s a bad thing but I do understand it. It’s easy to see all the problems and just want to burn it all down. Thinking that they could do better rebuilding from the ground up. It’s the same mistaken confidence and bravado that makes people anti-vaccination or anti-science. And they will go ape shit on you if you point that out.
Life just seems easier when you have a clear cut boogyman or enemy. It allows you to justify all sorts of bad behavior. As much as we ridicule and laugh at conservatives because of it. Everyone can fall prey to it.
The sad thing is it’s their disengagement that causes the Republican wins that perpetuate the problem. If Democrats maintained control of the Presidency and Congress for long enough, they’d inevitably shift all the candidates towards progressivism to capture more votes. The youth vote has control, but every new generation is convinced by Republicans and anarchists that they don’t. I had the same problem at 20 years old. It’s not a new game.
If the president is spreading disinformation about violent protests, alleged antisemitism on campus and most importantly not getting the feds involved with charging the cops who aided or stood idle as the peaceful protests were attacked, including by foreign military agents, like that one IDF scum bragged about afterwards, then yes he is also responsible for enabling and then protecting the mayor and his crooks.

keeping in mind that both Al Jazeera and Hamas are supported by Qatar, whose leader is probably also a billionaire.
That may be. Ironically though they can be less hypocritical and more consistent than much of the western media. It’s a bit non sequitur to even bring them up here. But it is still a problem.
I mostly agree.
That's a lot of people that seem to stick their nose in other people's business.
You are telling me that Eric Adams accepted a P.I. help when he could have literally walked to a police station. Then to a detective to solve the case?
Unless. Private investigators were used as counter protestors, then Eric Adams would have a lot to answer for.

I knew Michael Dell was a POS. My father-in-law bought his book and it was all self-masturbatory about how rich and smart he is.
That’s the standard for ‘how to get rich books’ afaik.
