There are plenty of conservatives, or at least conservative fringers, who are happily in bed with the Tliabs of the left.
Any time, someone starts off with “some of my best friends are _____”, you can be sure of what’s to follow.
I’m a Zionist from the “river to the sea” as in the Jordan River to the Mediterranean.
Heck Dr. Billy Graham in my youth said Israel would one day go from the Euphrates River in Iraq to the Mediterranean Sea.
But there is a problem with Globalist Moderates anti-MAGA types hijacking Zionism to smear Conservatives as Anti-Semites.
Case in point Doug Mastriano the GOP candidate for Governor here in PA.
I’m still waiting for Governor Josh Shapiro’s public apology for the smear.
Well, in this case it seems to hardly be true. She is taking pains to differentiate this specific group of Marxists from people that are merely and actually Jewish, as well as noting their small actual numbers.
I would have thought of her as presidential material until she started all of this. It proves that she does not have a clue when it comes to dealing with Rape, torturous Murder, and Evil. No Thanks.
I’m a Zionist who supports the Zionists being persecuted by the Biden Administration Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich.
Those guys along with their followers targeted by the Globalists like Biden and the European Union.
I’m a Zionist not a Globalist Moderate like those who smear Candace Owens as an Anti-Semite.
Please inform us about what she said that was wrong instead of childish name-calling.
Owens is not actually wrong. Some people who happen to be Jewish have been nazis, communists and whatever -ism you can think of.
For whatever reason, they manage to fuel antisemitism in the world.
“That all changed when I got into politics and met what I would describe as political Jews-who operate almost exactly like Black Lives Matter.”
A lot of truth in that!
Both milk the “victim card” to the max!
As does Ukraine.
And there are plenty of American politicians and corporations who promote and PROFIT from those victim cards.
As one looks to the demographics of Orthodox Jews, they tend to be family-oriented with larger families, more adherent to scripture and related texts, and vote along conservative lines.
Distinctly the opposite, the very liberal "Jews" -- and some would joke "bagel" Jews -- identify only with the culture, but are far less evident in terms of being family-oriented and with large families, and far less respectful of scripture and vote along Leftist lines.
The same may be observed in all the various Christian denominations, wherein a conservative "orthodoxy" is quite other than the extreme Leftist, trendy, pro-abortion and pro-LGBT+ "Christian" denominations.
Please note I placed quotation marks around the "Christian" and "Jews" nouns above, because the Leftists seem to be more like one another than any observant religious people.
Matt Walsh said the other day that the US shouldn’t provide aide to countries with a lower debt to GDP than ours like Israel. Does that make him antisemitic too?
This is such a knee-jerk reaction on your part and others here. We have two outstanding examples of the types of anti-Semitism as a weapon that Owens is talking about.
Okay. You are going to post something from “Mediaite” and accept that as anything other than a completely laughable Leftist screed.
Without even reading it (which I did anyway, even with it being from Mediaite) even the basest level of intelligence could see the article for what it is. I found NOTHING offensive in what she said. She spoke the truth. And what she said wasn’t “antisemitic”
Some people, even some on this thread, want to make criticisms of Jewish people a third rail. What that does is encourage Leftists to use their ostensible Jewish religion as a deliberate shield.
Think George Soros. In the minds of many of these people, even some here, attacking George Soros is “antisemitism”.
Never mind he sent his fellow jews to the boxcars as a boy, ratting them out, and he wasn’t even a Sonderkommando in the camps, who did their work simply because they wanted to live one more day.
He did it for money.
Is it antisemitism to criticize Soros?
Because many of these people being criticized by Candace Owen are likely those exact same types of people. Doing what they do for money, holding their Jewishness out in front of them like a shield.
Freeper said “Leftist Jews are Kapos”. It may not be true for all of them, but it is damn well true for a good many of them.
The story does not match the headline. She is talking about radical liberal Jews using victimhood tactics like the BLM does.
“My political philosophy has always been that we should not be using taxpayer dollars to support foreigners. I am therefore against the welfare programs for illegal immigrants. I’m against illegal immigration as a whole as it burdens taxpayers. I was against sending money to Afghanistan and Ukraine and therefore I am, of course, against sending a single dime to Israel.
“America is a country that is trillions dollars in debt. Why on earth are we sending money to a nation that has less debt than us?” she continued, adding: “This is common economic sense. Not antisemitism.”
She presents a coherent argument. It’s a shame it results in stupid, hateful name-calling. That kind of bullying is wrong.
I will simply disagree with Candace. I view Islam as an evil man-made political/religious system. While I see merit in Candace’s argument, I’ll make an exception in this case.
By the way, there are Christians in Africa that are also slaughtered by Muslims. They too are deserving of our attention. I suppose that makes me an antisemite to those who have a hair trigger. At least it doesn’t make me a racist. :)
Some people take some Conservative positions because those positions feel right to them, not because a clear grounding in Conservatism led them to that position.
Candace Owens would not be the first one to erroneously use stereotypes of people as valid identifiers of all persons matching a certain demographic. Even a few of Donald Trump’s comments have made that error before.
<< There are plenty of conservatives, or at least conservative fringers, who are happily in bed with the Tliabs of the left. >>
Yep. For some reason they have a soft spot for Israel’s jihadist enemies.
So many forget that this grifter c**t first entered the public sphere accusing several “white boys” at Stamford (CT) H.S. of making racial slurs against her, and partnering with the NAACP to sue the district, netting her nearly $40k in a cash settlement.
Also keep in mind that this despicable woman who recently declared “Jesus is Lord” as a bizarre reply to Ben Shapiro tweet, and is now pretending to be a big-time Christian just 2 years ago went on Joe Rogan and ridiculed people who believed that Jesus was Lord...or that he ever existed! Owens is truly repulsive, soulless and evil.
