a tale in establishment arrogance

Even some of his supporters say Andrew M. Cuomo ran an aloof campaign for mayor that underestimated his chief rival, Zohran Mamdani.

    I think hes ok but I also think it was a layup victory for him. There was no way he would lose. The other candidates were awful and the only other progressive one was Jewish.

              You seem confused, it’s the right wing maga dipshits marching with swastika flags. Not progressives. It was the Republican inauguration that had musky boy seig heiling the crowd. Twice

                nothing I said was misinfo or hateful. I fully understand why progressives arent to fond of jews at the moment. I know they arent out in the streets attacking jews and its just sentiment bleeding over from the war. The same thing happens to Russians living outside of Russia, its expected.

                  All of it was.

                  They aren’t fond of netanyahu. You are deliberately misinterpreting that in order to smear everyone to your left as anti-semitic.

                  I know they arent out in the streets attacking jews and its just sentiment bleeding over from the war

                  You keep calling it a war. Because you love that it’s a genocide against the Palestinians you want extinct.

                    Its clearly not just netanyahu. Be honest and at least say all Jews that support the state of isreal because thats actually what it is.

                    I understand the difference and its not being confused here. Peoples hatred isnt limited to the administration as originally claimed or isrealis as you claim.

          That’s such an idiotic misunderstanding of literally evening happening in the world. Hating a genocidal administration is not the same as hating the people who have an ethnic ancestry related to those working in the genocidal administration.

          Holy shit.

            Progressives dont “only hate the administration” and I think its completely disingenuous to even pretend thats the case.

                Progressives hate Jews rn. Why do you even pretend like this isnt the case? The people in this thread are bending over backwards to find outlier Jews so they can say they only hate 99% of them.

                So you’ll have no issue with isreal once the war is over and bibi steps down?

                  Once it obeys UN resolutions and restores the territorial integrity of West Bank and Gaza and respects Palestinian statehood, sure

                  Bibi has been provoking wars to remain in power for a long time now. Once they’ve finished murdering everyone do you really think it suddenly becomes ok just because they’re done?
