      Too often, the prevalence of right wing domestic terrorism in the US gets ignored. The Oklahoma City bombing, Dylann Roof, anti-abortion violence, and the Orlando nightclub shooting just to name a few. As far back as 1870, the KKK was formally considered to be a terrorist organization. Lynching is considered a terrorist act.

      This matches up with 12 year old me thinking if we turn the entire region into the largest parking lot, it would be time well spent.

      Don’t be 12 year old me (an idiot). Be better than that.

    Racism is not cool, dude. you can do this. you can understand for yourself why saying all muslims are terrorists or all zionists are terrorists is just a flat out stupid thing to say, the same way saying all christians are fucking retarded is probably not true either despite the bulk of the evidence being in one direction. I’m rooting for you m8, you’ll get there eventually, in the mean time try to stop being a professional cunt. you’re doing the same religulous thing as them, running your mouth like this

    Israel’s implementation of zionism is as far removed from the ideal as America’s implementation of democracy. Neither utopia worked out the way it might have if the humans in it were better people.

      Zionism is a religious and political movement to reclaim Palestine for the Israeli people and views that land as inherently belonging to Jewish people because God said so.

      That belief alone is not enough to call it a genocidal ideology. However, because Zionists overwhelmingly “reclaim” the land by terrorizing the current inhabitants, it’s not that much of a stretch.

      It is also inherently nationalistic and Zionists are inherently colonizers. It’s not racist to say that because it’s an ideology, and a harmful one.

      Just like I’d call all Westboro Baptists bigots. And I’d call any far-right group fascists. The Zionist ideology is the exact same
