So all those Jews who are one the front lines of pro Palestinian / anti Zionism marches are now "antisemitic"? Good luck with that.
How about Zionism and "israel" has proven itself to be a racist fascist belief system with shit tons of documentation. They can make all the resolutions they want but when it comes to enforcement it is unconstiutional. What's more - "israel's" crimes will be put on litteral trial in the court rooms and official records. So good luck justifying it all in court.
Go ahead lock up the anti Zionist Jews. Then be prepared for the blowback.

Your capitalist news sources probably aren't gonna focus on that idea.
all of them are just evil self hating jews, not true ones like me Mr Shabibo
monkey paw curls and the US starts detaining anti zionist jewelry without a shred of irony
Patriot Act moment again
I have SO MANY thoughts concerning things like rich people of the past and how they just brazenly did things against a huge majority of the population which absolutely didn't benefit anyone (maybe the top 1% or whatever). None of it connected to current day nor connected to our Congress and if I did have those thoughts I would certainly never write them down.
Hey, time to see the principled Republicans who always said "hate crimes are bullshit because who cares why they murdered that minority!" vote against this since it the federal government sets precedent that antizionism can be considered antisemitism it opens up legitimate prosecution of leftists (it won't be right wingers boycotting Israeli business) for opposing a racist fascist state. Also kills defamation lawsuits in the crib which is a tiny but still possible way to get revenge as against the false accusations. If it's just a law that they are equal... I guess you can still fight it, but let's be real here about how that will go especially with the current Supreme Court.
This all just makes the US a mask off Nazi country just openly passing laws like "all Jews think the same and are a monolith." Shit is pretty crazy. They also condemned socialism a few months back.
-Thinks Jews are all the same and a little inclusive group ✅
-hates socialism and makes laws against ✅
-openly discussing invading neighbors for bullshit reasons (Mexico) ✅
the circle of fascism never stops
I mean yes, but also it's just a resolution. That is, a letter that congress is cosigning that has no legal result.
I'm absolutely not trying to "roast" you or anything. You're not wrong.
The reason I often type hyperbolically is because I've already seen enough of where this shit goes. Today it's a resolution, next week it's a law outlawing protesting Zionists.
I'm failing to explain my mentality beyond like "what if Chicken Little was screaming about the sky falling... and was always right?" I basically use this website as my place to scream about the sky because everywhere else people have literally no clue wtf they're even going on about. That doesn't mean I'm always right, because I'm not and I try to accept new things when I'm wrong, but I mean they literally do not have the base level knowledge to discuss... anything. So, screaming into the void is what it will be, I suppose.
(Chicken Little would be a good username)
I mean, there are 30+ states with anti-BDS laws already. We are already almost at that point you're describing. For example, you can get fired as a company contracting with the Texas government or as an individual employee of the state (teachers, etc) for advocating for BDS.
In some states, your landlord can kick you out of your house/apartment lease for advocating BDS.
This coming on the heels of the republicans voting down a resolution against openly hanging out with Nazis is
Exactly, the whole point of this was to entrap Rashida Talib into voting against
I know she got some flak here for voting present instead of against but this was designed to create attack ads saying "she voted against condemning antisemitism"
She can just vote present or skip the vote entirely. Its the traditional move for Congresscritters that want to vote "No" without having an official "No"-vote on their record.
But its hardly a "trap" in the meaningful sense. Not like Talib isn't a known quantity in her district. This is just House Leadership pretending like they're doing their jobs, while the country sinks into the morass of economic doldrums and social strife. If anything, incumbents being too vocal in their dogged support of Israel are setting themselves up for outsider opponents who want to capitalize on the anti-Israeli sentiment that's been building for weeks.
Barely. She's hurting on money. But that's the price to pay for being a #FrauDSquAd
Democrat. I hope she rallies her district to go vote for the Green party as the Democrats aren't shielding her and mask off threw her to the Naziyahoos. Get spicy.
“she voted against condemning antisemitism”
Mighty rich when USA voted in UN against condemning nazism. And, almost every single rep voted for zionism which is in fact antisemitism.
The House could pass a resolution stating that Pi = 3 and these fools would vote for it
True but I'm betting most would think voting yes means they'd get 3 pies
As an engin**r, pi does equal 3 tho, we make up that rounding with the factor of safety
That's because cancelling DST would be a good thing. Congress can only do evil things. This is not a bit.
they probably are celebrating in Tel Aviv but I don't think a single American actually cares what the opinion of Congress is. It's literally the most hated institution in America, so can't imagine it's going to actually influence anyone except those whose jobs depend on adhering to the Washington Consensus
This is like when Biden got the Eurocucks to condemn China for Uyghur genocide by saying that voting against it or abstaining made you complicit. They certainly don't seem to have that in mind with their Israel positions.
does it do anything besides political grandstanding? like does it make it easier to charge protestors with terrorism or hate crimes if they wave a palestinian flag?
Seems grandstanding (as in courts wont fine you, but the free market of universities/linkedins will). nazi right to free speech was defended with disturbing regularity, but probably someone will wave 50 citations at you that its antisemitism and corbyn your job prospects
Pretty sure they did this exact same thing in Germany and then used it to censor people despite it being a non-binding resolution
Yes, just grandstanding and it also will function as a way for zionists to mudsling at anti-zionists in elections.
Cynical and craven politicking in defense of the most special little apartheid state and the genocide they're committing.
