I've had a lot of liberals telling me that "Kamala has to play politics" and that we can't criticize her because we are fighting fascism (she isn't a fascist presiding over a genocide, obviously). I have found they get really indignant when you ask them what other groups besides Arabs/Muslims whose lives they think it's OK to "play politics with" in order to "defeat fascism". Black people? Trans people? Migrants?

You don't 'play politics' to defeat fascism if you truly are attempting to defeat fascism, historically fascism wins that game every time.

I think you just called me a liberal for criticizing liberals for saying Arab/Muslim lives are worth less than others. Do you have some Zionist sympathies you would like to share?

Funny; that's exactly how they defended Obomber while he was blowing Syrian and Libyan civilians to a finely-macerated fuckin paste. During his second administration I hate this fucking country.

There's just a very blatant anti-Arab/anti-Muslim bigotry that runs through all of their reasoning (as well as some people in this comment thread, apparently). People always talk about "hypocrisy" but that's basically just a thought-terminating cliche. When people engage in hypocrisy, it's because there is some other thought/ideology that they are using to guide their reasoning, and in cases like this, it's bigotry/racism.
