i am more than willing to engage on any positive claim you want to make (i probably agree with a lot of them). what i’m not willing to do is tolerate personal attacks and dogpiling.

commie,

he called it criminal

commie,

West does not seem to understand that NATO is a voluntary organization that requires applications to get in, nor that the core of this war is Russia trying to exercise imperialism.

what makes you think that?

commie,

why doesn’t West want the US to aid a country in protecting its sovereignty against an imperialist powe

he never said that

commie,

verturning democratic elections, giving even more money and free rein to private industry, and having his family in appointmented positions.

that’s not what far right means, and there is no false equivalency being made

commie,

biden is far right: he expanded the surveillance and arrest powers of the state, imposed harsher prison sentences, voted for every military action he had an opportunity to, voted for taarp, opposed bussing… everything about him is far right. i don’t want to defend any politician, so i’m not going to say trump did anything good (or, at least i won’t try to enumerate any good things he might have done), but for every far right policy you think he may have, biden has two skeletons in the closet.

commie,

a vote for biden makes it easier for biden to win, and i don’t want that to happen. i’m going to vote for the person i do want to win.

commie,

the project of setting up Israel as a nation state is a genocidal colonialist project. dissembling about this, suggesting it was acceptable, that the occupied people should only resist within the boundaries you set, shows you aren’t opposed to the genocidal colonialist project.

commie,

if these same opinions were being voiced in c/politics or c/news, my pushback would be decidedly different. this is an anarchist community, and frankly i don’t believe the other user’s operating in good faith. just saying “i’m an anarchist” is a pretty thin shield for accusing principled organizers of antisemitism and derailing discussion about a global coordinated resistance movement.

i think it’s super cool that an admin is weighing in (since i think that means my reports are being read), but maybe we could get an anarchist to actually do some of the moderation here.

commie,

my concern isn’t instance-wide rules. as i said, in another community, my tact would have been totally different. my concern is whether this is actually an anarchist community or no.

commie,

an anarchist community doesn’t allow badjacketing and punching left, something this user is doing.

if it were up to me, we would have the same policies as reddit’s anarchism subreddit.

and they would not tolerate this user’s comments.

commie,

you are the only person badjacketing in this post

i was called antisemitic

commie,

you think it’s a good policy to ban fellow anarchists for having a nuanced view on the Gaza situation

that’s not what it’s about. it’s about bad faith accusations of antisemitism against principled organizers.

commie,

It is obviously easier to organize if there is one clear enemy, like Putin or Erdogan.

nazis in ukraine aren’t my comrades either.

commie,

But imo it just is not as easy to say that the whole state of Israel with all the people living in it is the enemy here.

the whole state of israel and its supporters are the enemy.

commie,

there’s a “river to the sea” comment right there from someone else. So I can see where they might have gotten that impression.

only a bad faith interpretation could have led anyone to think it’s antisemitism.

commie,

Well, you cannot deny that there are many antisemites that would want to kill all the Jews.

what does this have to do with the leftists organizing an economic blockade? nothing.

commie,

And if people use the same rhetoric (“from the river to the sea”), why wouldn’t I warn against this antisemitic rhetoric?

it’s not antisemitic

commie,

I don’t see how I am “parroting” Israeli propaganda though.

claiming boycott is antisemitic and clamiing “from the river to the sea” is antisemitic are both israeli propaganda, and you’re parroting it.

commie,

you made bad faith assumptions against them.

i am unconvinced this is true.

commie,

the link to the present is not that clear cut.

it’s an event in living memory that has never been rectified

commie,

Kill all the Jew

you keep bringing this up, but you’re the only one

commie,

is this really an option with all the conflicts and how many Palestinians have been displaced?

seems to me the first thing to do is to tear down the wall. then we can let the palestinian people reclaim their homes.

commie,

I don’t need a plan to know what needs to be done

commie,

bye

Former officials speak out against Biden’s unconditional support for Israel (www.independent.co.uk)

“There’s no incentive to investigate if the president and the White House themselves have announced that aid is unconditional,” said Brian Finucane, who worked for a decade in the Office of the Legal Adviser at the State Department advising on arms transfers and the laws of war....

commie,

viability is a myth. they told us hilary was viable and john kerry.
