Progressive Politics

What a ridiculous thing to say. And what a stupid way of doing politics. This is exactly how the Zionists are losing the antisemitism narrative and you want to flip it over and push this to the Palestinians. Just like the Zionists fall on their faces by conflating Israel with Jews, you are trying to conflate the Palestinians with Hamas. What a profoundly misguided thing to do.

The millions of Palestinians who do not want Hamas to be the leader of anything do not owe your little fantasy narrative anything. And the millions upon millions of people who have been protesting the genocide do not owe an oath of fealty to some right wing Islamist faction anything.

It's really telling that your last few posts have been about NY progressives not cowing to your campist fantasy. You'd rather attack the few holdouts of progressive politics in the US and see them become internally divided and fail. You'd rather align with the Right to harass Mamdani with cheap shots that make you look like the pure ideologue than to actually do the quiet institutional work that will actually position the anti-apartheid movement better.

Your moralistic pronouncements "if you do that you don't do that" that make political positions sound like personality failures are silly and ridiculous. What a stupid thing to say that if someone doesn't support your favourite Palestinian faction they are pro genocide. What arrogance. You personalize and normalize vitriol in politics, you make it toxic and discouraging to anyone disagreeing with you. Go cosplay 19th century German academic invective style all you like but this isn't how any of this works.

The genocide will not end because of whatever Hamas does. The genocide will end when the anti-apartheid movement in Zionist bases of support succeeds in cutting off that support. And if you think support for Hamas is how you do that, well boy oh boy.
