leftist infighting (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

(this is a sarcastic post meant to highlight the absurdity of some of the “greater good” rhetoric we’ve been hearing, especially around leaving vulnerable populations like disabled people behind in case of revolution, basically accelerationism)

The take I’ve been seeing more lately is that many on the left don’t internally support genocide, they’re just afraid of AIPAC money taking away their ability to do any good.

And that’s pretty bad. But the more we expose the core threat, the less they may fear them as hate for AIPAC overwhelms their ability to spew lies. Much like how hate for Musk overcame his spending on the WI election.

(But hey, I’m eager to learn. If anyone can show that people on the left are actively Zionist, or have personally motivated reasons for their silence, I’m curious about it)

PS: verytallbart makes some pretty funny YTPs off politics and far-right aholes.

This is true but I don't know how much. There's some democrats explicitly and correctly calling out AIPAC as being an a far right PAC. Taking money from AIPAC needs to be seen as treacherous as taking money from NRA or the Heritage foundation.

It sounds like you're talking about the Democratic Party, not the left. I think some in the party are true Zionists (like Chuck Shumer and Joe Biden) while others are just afraid to be visibly anti-Zionist out of fear of AIPAC.
