    JVP is explicitly anti-Zionist. What are you even talking about?

      If they do not side with the resistance, they are zionists. "The white man's peace" is not an ideal to shoot for. Mourning the criminals killed (mostly by Israel but blaming hamas) on oct 7th and calling for the return of hostages is NOT anti-zionist in the slightest and is manufacturing consent for genocide in the name of "wiping out hamas", the only people fighting for this nightmare to end.

        You don't think the hostages should be returned when all Palestinian hostages are returned and the genocide is ended? If you read that entire statement and your takeaway was “anti-resistance liberal Zionism” on the same day they shut down the New York stock exchange you either need to take a deep breath or you are just in here to be a wrecker.

          This shit is really just inexcusable man the org has such a history of this. Again local chapters can be good but the national leadership fails the national question consistently and doesn't say shit about hezbollah, iran, or hamas the true vanguards of this movement. Palestinians have said time and time again they are systemically racist in the JVP and the founder is an "Israeli" with ties to Israeli intellegence that's goal seems to be to meet jews where they're at, which is including doing genocide propaganda revisionist history about the "1200 killed by hamas", the entire mythological basis for this genocide and really ugly
