    The ADL is likely giving a calculated response because of what happened last time Nazis took over a western country. It’s really sad that people are letting Nazis take over the US over what seems to be fear of AI and influx of immigrants from LatAm countries.

    Couple this Nazi bullshit with what the Trump admin said yesterday about Israel having a biblical right to the land in the West Bank, it’s clear the plan is to eventually “gently encourage” Jewish “immigration” from the U.S. to Israel. Because Nazis don’t have any principles per se, and people like that especially don’t care about the Bible. Sadly, it seems that American conservatives are essentially Nazis now.

      This is cope. The ADL is and has always been a zionist org and their purpose is to secure a future for their chosen people and their Israeli children.

        I think their exact mission statement is “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for Jewish children, because the beauty of the White Jewish woman must not perish from the Earth.”

      Israel is far-right. Far-right actors will align itself with other far-right actors. This shouldn’t be surprising to anyone that the militaristic society who actively perpetuates the worst apartheid in living memory would naturally align itself with the far-right.

      The next fascism will not be anti-Jew. That’s all ADL cares about

        Okay, and the one after that? People should do what they can to safeguard democracy, that’s what keeps everyone collectively safe.

          Yeah, it’s interesting to see history repeat itself in my lifetime. Everyone seems to be OK with people going after the other - but what happens when they come after you?

          Latinos I know, even some illegals, support Trump. Why? Because in their mind, when Trump says “they’re bringing over the murderers, the rapists” he’s obviously not referring to them. it’s the other immigrants.

          when he says “immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country” it’s the other immigrants

          when he says “they’re eating the dogs, they’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there” he obviously means those barbaric other immigrants

          this type of “I’m with him and he is not talking about me” seeps into other areas too

          I saw a long facebook post on reddit the other day. it was a veteran explaining that his wife had recently got a job at a VA hospital. that she was set to start in 2 weeks and they just moved states for her to start the job. that he was a disabled vet that has supported Trump since day 1.

          but Trump, true to his word, froze all hiring for all “non-essential” government departments. that, coincidentally, includes his wife’s new position. she was told her job was no longer available.

          in his post, he said “Trump, I know this is an oversight. I know when you said you were going to cut all government hiring, you didn’t mean this one, you meant the others

          it’s honestly fascinating. People want desperately to be inside of the “in group” that they’ll play mental gymnastics and enthusiastically support policies directly harmful to themselves

          like you said, eventually you will get burned. it doesn’t matter who you are. fascism will hurt us all, even the blond blue eyes wunderkind
