Disturbing but not surprising to see @IfNotNow pushing this disgusting cartoon, demonizing @AIPAC and falsely equating Israel-supporters with those behind the #Jan6thInsurrection. We should be coming together, not stoking the flames of #antisemitism, anti-Zionism and hate.

If anyone else wants the recording of the convo where rising conservative leaders incl Nate Hochman, Luca Cacciatore, Gabe Guidarini & Saurabh Sharma seemed to agree with a lot of Nick Fuentes’ main points about white racial identity, demographics & the Right, let me know

Nate Hochman has become a prominent young conservative writer for outlets like the NYT Opinion section. But Hochman has quietly praised white nationalist and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes, calling him a good influence on Republican youth. thedispatch.com/p/the-new-righ

The New Right Finds a Home at the Intersection of Populism and Elitism

This is deeply morbid stuff but the point is, the organized Right knows how to hit their audience in the gut w/life-or-death appeals to fervor. The Left does too but we are very marginal. Liberals need to stop sitting on their hands & fight to win

Imagine if the liberal establishment rallied their base with this kind of hard-hitting, dramatic political theater for causes that actually matter- say, destruction of the planet & bodily autonomy for starters- instead of stale fundraising emails

Crucial to attend to shifts and slippages like this, because they show how the mainstream discourse around antisemitism is not a consistent, clear project of fighting prejudice—it's a tactical, political strategy to discredit and intimidate critics of Israel.

It is striking how rapidly the narrative has shifted from “it is antisemitic to suggest AIPAC funding has any role in Congress�? (remember the kerfuffle around the Benjamins?) to “it is antisemitic to focus on or criticize the fact that AIPAC funding has a role in a Congress.�?

Orbán is now claiming that the worst things in history were orchestrated by people who hate Christianity. He then pivots to a stray comment about George Soros, calls him his opponent. I doubt this juxtaposition was incidental.

Not going to share the video, but just seen the clip from Press TV of David Miller and Chris Williamson describing the Jewish community in Odessa as a settler-colony. Some of you out there seriously need to learn some humility and admit you were wrong to defend these ghouls.

For over a century, left-wing critics correctly predicted that political Zionism, as a reactionary nationalist movement, would time & again find common cause w/forces of repression against workers & oppressed peoples around the world. This is what they were talking about

Andy Levin's primary loss is a tough hit for unions. There's a large labor caucus and other members with legit union CV's (Norcross comes to mind) but Levin's degree of organizing experience and handle on the systemic challenges unions face were true rarities on today's Hill.

AIPAC doesn't campaign on Israel and they don't win on Israel because their positions aren't popular. Their playbook is actually pretty basic: don't talk about Israel; drop millions; claim victory was about Israel; silence progressives on Palestine with threat of money drop. 🧵

Everyone involved with AIPAC will have to tell their grandkids that when American democracy was in danger, they were laser-focused on smacking down those who rose up to defend it. Do your part to make sure you have a better story to tell your grandkids
