A lot of Americans believe that Israel controls the US. Stuff like this feeds into that for the uninformed.

Which drives up (actual) antisemitism. Which leads to (actual) pogroms. Which leads to American Jews (and others around the world) moving to Israel.

Aka: all part of the Zionist plan.

And for any liberal dinguses reading this going "heuh heuh wow look how racist the left is! Heuh heuh!" I'm speaking not about the Jewish Zionists concentrated in Israel, the US and EU. I'm talking about the majority of Zionists... evangelical Christians. Rabid racists who support actions like this from the US state and other Western governments in hopes that it does exactly what I wrote above. They want all the Jews in America to go live in Israel until the rapture happens and they're all sent to Hell or whatever specific fanfic they choose to believe. It serves their goal of making America more of a WASP ethnostate, emptying it of non-Christians that they hate, and feeds their psychotic religious fervor.

It's actually incredible how many specific things that you can point at that make America suck have been upheld by or caused by evangelicals

Yeah, before theremoved riots I always used to say Christian Zionists are worse.

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance).

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
