  • There is nothing wrong with being pro Marxist. All the more power to you and engaging politically. The issue is you guys – at least here on social media and forums – seem unable to divorce any conversation from marxist-leninist theory. Every discussion, topic, analysis is exclusively locked in this worldview because you’ve decided fervently that this is the ultimate frontier for humanity and anyone that slightly disagrees with this perspective is a capitalist neo-liberal bootlicker that needs to be flogged and burned on the stake.

    Every time. Every. Single. Time.








  • I remember a convo we had a while back. I don’t mean to psychoanalyze but I recall all your responses being filled with very loaded language kinda how you’re doing here.

    It’s obvious the person you are responding to in this thread is not particularly keen on the convo but you come at them very charged. I don’t know, maybe don’t take it so personal. I get that they lumped you in with a group you probably don’t identify with but it’s not worth the battle. Just my 2 € thoughts. All this online debate only leads to misery.






  • Eh, as long as Netanyahu (or any foreign government) isn’t instructing them directly on how the funds should be spent it’s perfectly legal. Otherwise any lobby group is allowed to lobby on behalf of any interest, including an ally nation. Is it ethical? That’s debatable. Is it legal? Yes, as long as FARA is not being violated.

    You’re welcome to start your own lobby group, Ensign.

    For what it’s worth, I’m not down voting you.




  • I don’t know if you are doing it intentionally. The alt right uses AIPAC funded by Israel extremely often as an Anti-semitic talking point and also as a method to minimize any Ukraine involvement. Whether intentional or not, your initial claim insinuated this heavily as if Israel and the deepstate are pulling the strings on our politicians. The reality is there are many Jews living in the US, and those jews are sympathetic to Israel. It also happens that Israel has been a longstanding ally of the US (whether that’s ethical or not is a different discussion). If you want to make the claim that AIPAC has influence in politics that’s significantly different than a foreign entity crossing FARA and directing US policy. The world is not so black and white.
