This perceived overlap of antisemitism and anti-zionism has been shown many times to be a false equivalence. It does nobody any good to conflate Zionism which is a very real fascist Israeli supremacy movement, with Semitism which refers to Jewishness regardless of culture or country.

As with many Fascist movements it is very much in the interest of those who follow the a Supremacy movement to conflate opposition of their movement with persecution of their culture.

More related than dupe, as this article includes a statement from the group being labeled terrorist.

Same discussion . Statement shared over there. No need to split up the discussion.

I submit that “dupe” is a misleading misnomer if the submission does not link to the same content.

The government just shut down processing of legal immigration applications, so yes actually, Trump only wants illegal immigrants, no legal ones.

It's a temporary pause in INTERVIEWS, not the entire process. The pause is to train people to analyze whether that person would be dependent on public services.

Unfortunately our public services are overloaded by illegal immigrants, this is needed.

And what does that have to do with GP conflating stats meant for immigrants with illegal immigrants?

Can you give some examples of the woke/marxist crap? Trump ran as a republican because he thought it would be easier to sway republicans to vote for him because they're sheeple, and he's on camera saying that and everyone just memory-holed it.

Don't bother. "woke/marxist crap" is an obvious tell that they're delusional from a Facebook feed or similar. They will have plenty of examples because it obviously does exist, but it's ultimately just a strawman without much sway over the larger Democratic party - especially in the current context of how Republicans have gone all-in for con artist in chief and are currently running the show. As a centrist libertarian who had never in my life voted for a major party in a national election until 2020, I'm holding my nose and voting conservative (ie democrat) for the foreseeable future.

No. Zionism at its core is just the opinion that there needs to be a state of Israel, to serve as a "last safe haven" for all Jews in the world.

They really don't have to call a group far left or far right in their justification, because it sounds like weak credibility in search of social support. They could just call them a criminal organization seeking directly, or indirectly, to contribute to violence for political ends, which does not sound like the case here.

Most jurisdictions will prosecute you under terrorism laws for that.

The "adjectives" (far-left) are there just explain to the public what kind of terrorism they are talking about.
