But JoE BiDeN GeNoSiDe!!?!1
Biden is actually doing the genocide. Kushner is just flapping his lips. If we were talking about Americans starving instead of Palestinians, no one would be making excuses for Biden. But it’s brown people overseas, so it’s just an unpleasant fact we need to make peace with.
Yeah, while we can criticize Biden for going along with Israel’s attacks on Palestinians, it’s pure fantasy to imagine Trump and his associates would be any less enthusiastic. All the signs are that they’d be even more enthusiastic, plus they have the support of the crazy evangelicals who want to bring about the Rapture.
If you accept bribes to look the other way, you do that always.
I mean, it’s just that for a few decades the poorer side of most conflicts was both usually plain worse and usually unable to negotiate (say, DPRK vs South Korea …).
It was very convenient to hide the mechanism where Israel, Saudi Arabia and Turkey are on the “good” side.
Vote Biden. If your actions lead to predictable outcomes, you assume that moral liability whether you want to or not.
Oh yeah, and he’s Jewish too isn’t he, so he’ll get in on redeveloping it.
Nothing suspicious to see here folks
Anti-semitism is when you dislike someone because they are Jewish, not when you dislike someone because they want to ethnically cleanse Palestine and create vALuaBlE WAterFrONt PrOPerTiEs on the stolen land, especially when that person literally runs a real estate development company and could possibly have access to that specific market (because he’s Jewish and that’s important to Israel).
Saying that a Jewish person is Jewish is not anti-semitism.
Edit: Maybe you don’t know about how Kushner has served Israel in the past:
I just need 20mins with ivanka.
Remember, Lex Fridman platformed Jared Kushner and Tucker Carlson in front of his millions of listeners, allowing them them to further propagate their right wing propaganda. Lex is a fucking hack, and a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
He also platformed a Palestinian in a powerful interview. We don’t need to be so afraid of words. People can think for themselves.
I’m not afraid of words. I am expressing my own displeasure with Lex Fridman by using words right now. If you don’t agree with my opinion then that is your prerogative, but what I said was factually accurate. You won’t find that same factual accuracy in either of those interviews, and that is the fucking problem.
An interview isn’t meant to be factual like a news report. The whole point is to hear someone’s perspective. Friedman’s project is to expose his listeners to a broad spectrum of views. That’s an honorable goal.
