    "History buffs" who equate public criticism with any kind of authoritarian regime are either ignorant or dishonest.

    Every other country on the planet knows they cannot take over the US militarily. Putin understood this and used psyops in 2016 to get Trump elected. He knew that Donald Trump would divide the nation and that he could help divide the country, and allow us to destroy ourselves from within. Putin has been eating our lunch for the last 10 years.

    Wasn't hard to find that it isn't just a "movement". That it is organized.

    Either of these organizations? It's being led by one organization. And yes, she has expressed support for BDS. Of course she didn't express that support until after she was elected.

    Look, I'm not going to do all of your homework. If you really want to know then look.

    You mentioned 2 organizations.

    It's possible she did so, but you keep running away when I ask you to demonstrate this. You've shown her supporting boycotts against Israel. That's it. No, that doesn't mean she supports every organization that also supports boycotts against Israel. Anyone with 3 braincells to rub together can see the difference.

    "I'm too lazy to defend my argument, so you defend it for me" is a stupid argument. And you know it. "I'm right by fiat and you are obligated to disprove me or blindly obey my every command" is a stupid argument. Figure that out.

    So, let's even say you were right. If I agree with you, I still have to condemn every anti-globalist, anti-Soros, anti-"Cultural Marxist" righty of the EXACT SAME TYPE OF ANTI-SEMITISM AS OMAR. You are incapable of addressing that fact, but it is based on THE EXACT SAME LOGIC AS YOURS. If basic logical consistency is too much to ask for, you are playing a losing game.

    Nope. I gave you two links. Both show that the BDS "movement" is lead by one organization.

    LINK: Omar draws ire for condemning Iran sanctions as 'crippling' while backing anti-Israel BDS movement | Fox News

    Condemn whoever you want. I don't care. :shrug: And you can consider me lazy if you wish. But no one here is under any obligation to do your homework for you. I give starter links. I then expect people to do their own homework. I'm not a teacher. I also expect people to know at least some of what they are posting about before they make a post.

    You provided links regarding 2 organizations. Without any evidence that the entire movement is lead by those organizations.

    Movement. Not a specific organization.

    You are literally the one who demanded that I o your homework for you.

    I'm under no obligation to do your homework for you, which is what you are demanding. And notice how you've failed to address ANY of the other arguments I've presented regarding other anti-Semitic "tropes."

    You can quit trying to co-opt my people for your politics. We aren't buying it.

    Most Republicans, Democrats and Independents tell the truth.
    Most politicians do not.

    Neo-Nazis voted for the same candidate as you in 2020.

    Neo-Nazi/Klan leaders have almost always supported any Democrat politician over any Republican politician for obvious reasons.

    Seriously?. I'm done with you. It is obvious that you do not want to learn. You didn't even bother to click on the links I provided. Hell, you didn't even read the quotes I gave that outright says who is leading the BDS movement.

    I clicked on your links. You attempted to pretend that anyone who agrees with boycotting Israel must be a member of one of the 2 organizations you presented. They aren't. That's crazy. Frankly, you are trying to subjugate my people to try to make a cheap, unsubstantiated "point."

    I read your quotes. I'm just capable of thinking about them. You should try the same. Please stop trying to use the suffering of my people to make fake political points. Try treating us seriously. We're people too. Why can't you understand that?

    In fact, almost all Neo Nazi/KKK leaders will support any Democrat over any Republican.

He's a scary, scary person--more dangerous than Bush. Obama, according to his book, Dreams Of My Father, is a racist and I have no problem with black racists. I've got the quote right here: 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's white race.' The problem with Obama is he's being dishonest about his racial views. I'd respect him if he'd just come out and say, 'Yeah, I'm a black racist.' I don't hate black people. I just think it's in the best interest of the races to be separated as much as possible. See, I'm a leftist. I'm not a rightist. I hate the transnational corporations far more than any black person."

    New rift opens between U.S. House Republicans over bigotry claims
    David Morgan
    Tue, November 30, 2021, 12:22 PM

    By David Morgan

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A new fault line opened between Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives on Tuesday, as lawmakers squabbled publicly over accusations of religious bigotry and racism among party conservatives.

    In a fight that could further complicate Republican efforts to forge unity ahead of next year's elections, firebrand congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene on Twitter branded Representative Nancy Mace as "trash" for criticizing Republican Lauren Boebert for remarks about a Democrat that have been decried as Islamaphobic.

    "@NancyMace is the trash in the GOP Conference. Never attacked by Democrats or RINO's (same thing) because she is not conservative, she's pro-abort. Mace you can back up off of @laurenboebert or just go hang with your real gal pals, the Jihad Squad. Your out of your league," Greene wrote in a tweet early on Tuesday.

    RINO, the acronym for "Republican In Name Only," is an epithet often used to criticize party members not seen as adequately conservative.

    ... https://news.yahoo.com/rift-opens-between-u-house-182253817.html

    Yes, we have a so-called member of Congress who not only puts "Jihad Squad" in a tweet, but also writes "your" instead of "you're" when attempting a childish insult in the same tweet.

    She, like Gump, is a RINO. Not principled Republicans who stand up for what is right and uphold principles, but these demented clowns and raving kooks who have come to infest the GOP.
