    Unfortunately he’s probably doing it because he’s actually anti-semitic, which will be ammo in lib’s guns pointed at us, because “wow you stupid tankies agree with ALEX JONES? That’s just MORE PROOF in horseshoe theory! You tankies are just like the right!”

    No you dumbass libs we don’t agree with Alex Jones. Yes, we want a ceasefire and an end to the genocide, but for entirely different reasons. Context matters. Well, to us anyway. Context doesn’t matter to libs, they are incapable of understanding context.

      Who knows what propagandists actually believe. They’re actors playing a characters to influence public opinion and make money.

        One of things i learned observing Polish politics is that Hanlon’s razor is blunt like a round rock from riverbed. Murican one is probably the same.

      Right.

      Jones wants a ceasefire because he wants all the Jews to be wiped out by Hamas.

      We want a ceasefire because we don’t want to watch Palestinians be killed off and forced out of Palestine by Israel.

          The right wing thought is that Isreal is defending itself against terrorists that will surely immediately and completely destroy Isreal the moment Isreal stops the killing.

          It’s absolutely positively ridiculous but this is what they actually think. Similar to how they thought if we didn’t blow up Iraq or Afghanistan they would continue to do 25 9/11s every single day until America is completely destroyed. Right wing folks aren’t too smart.

          I suppose ‘wiped out’ is far too strong, more like ‘let Hamas kill as many Jews as possible while trying to demonize Israel’. Like Infamousblt pointed out, I was going with the defacto rightwing mode of thinking, which is ‘the evil brown people will kill as many people as possible unless they themselves are being wiped out’

          It also occurs to me he may be trying to poison the well here by himself wanting ceasefire, trying to make it seem less palatable for anyone left of him.
