    Compromising with fascists never works out, because the second you give anything less than 100% support, they treat you like You’ve always been mortal enemies.

    But moderates are constantly re-enacting Charlie Brown going for a fieldgoal

        Does calling Netanyahu ‘Bibi’ put a bad taste in anyone else’s mouth? I know people are trying to emasculate him a lot of the time, but it feels like calling Hitler ‘Addy’.

          I feel the same way. He’s not my friend and he’s not a cute kid or something. He’s a genocidal war criminal.

          It’s situational. When he’s acting like a child it’s fun to bring a little levity to the conversation and mock “strong man” politicians. Treating him like a petulant child When he whines about fairness etc. Doesn’t take away from the genocide of it all. I think we’re intelligent enough to not get lost in the nuance.

      Netanyahu is up there with all time greats at blasting civilians. He can bitch about Biden AND kill civilians with the bombs Biden provides him at the same time. He is a multitalented piece of shit.

    When even your friend who does the most fucked up shit all the time tells you to tone it down a bit, maybe it’s time to re-evaluate your actions
