@sun They didn't; that's a myth propagated by Redditors (so they can blame the crimes of a protected class on an unprotected class) and by neocon senators (because "voters think Israel is holy and I'm doing what they want" sounds better than "Israel has pictures of me fucking a headless six year old").

There are overwhelming amounts of polling that demonstrate very clearly that the public does not support Israel at anywhere near the level Congress does, and that this dearth of support extends to Evangelicals, Christians, and whoever else they might blame.

@Ghislaine I think that's fairly tortured logic, at its best. Supposing a miracle had happened and America had left Israel high and dry, I think Iran would've held off on targeting American assets.

Even so, if the best justification for attacking a country is that it might've lashed out if our millstone of an 'ally' attacked it, the smart call is to cut Israel loose rather than to bail them out. The fact that the administration is down to stuff like this indicates that pretty much everyone knows it was a bad idea, which is a good sign.

@Kang_Kong3 @Ghislaine This is an inane claim pushed by people who seem biologically incapable of thinking about anything for more than a few seconds. If "The Establishment" controls both candidates completely, then they have no reason to care which one wins. Moreover, nobody making this claim is also claiming that U.S. elections are so secure that a conspiracy as powerful as you describe couldn't just print a few million fake ballots. It's just gibberish that falls apart if you actually read it. Sometimes bad people can just be incompetent.

But insisting that there's ahkshully a conspiracy and everything is going according to keikaku is a convenient excuse to laze around doing nothing of value because it's all hopeless anyways.

@genmaicha @Ghislaine Because Newsom isn't the guy terminally internet-poisoned Twitter retards think he is. Normal people view him as "that socialist assclown who ruined California", and they're closer to being right than the pretentious jackoffs calling him "Blue Caesar".

Most unambiguous evidence of this is that he hired a weird little goblin-thing to ghostwrite low-quality twitter clapbacks for his account instead of doing the smart thing and not making a clown of himself. The Tim Walz strategy is a proven failure mode, driven by 90 IQ Dem apparatchiks who think they can reverse-engineer Trump's success by doing a bad impression of him.
