“Palestinians will not coexist peacefully,” Shapiro wrote. “They do not have the capabilities to establish their own homeland and make it successful even with the aid of Israel and the United States. They are too battle-minded to be able to establish a peaceful homeland of their own.”

Dude is just a fuckin racist. Of course he'll be the VP pick lmao.

Love the huge effort to say there's two sides on the issue with valid opinions. I'm a dick for "wanting fascism" (because pointing out liberal flaws means you support DJT) over a "disagreement on one issue"

Truly think some Nazi scale shit is going to happen in my lifetime and we will hear about how "it's complicated" and "context is important" about ongoing genocide

    it's complicated

    I'll leave this here. It could be used to share with libs because "complicated" etc are lib thought terminating clichés.

    ---

    Ta-Nehisi Coates on his visit to Israel and Palestine - "There's a word that come up all the time and it's 'complexity' and it's closely related adjective 'complicated'... I assumed it would be hard to descern right from wrong to understand the morality at play [and the conflict]. But perhaps the most shocking thing was that I immediately understood."

    "You can't behold evil and then return and not speak on it."

    Ta-Nehisi Coates speaks about how an experience in Palestine illuminated the connections between the African American and Palestinian liberation struggles, and the moral responsibility to speak out.
