Israeli and Zionist influence in the USA is a purposeful choice of the American government. It allows the American government to circumvent many domestic and international laws by allowing Israeli firms to do the spying and dirty work for them. Israel is essentially a rogue state that is entirely controlled by the American intelligence apparatus (and therefore, American capital). This has created a feedback loop of constantly reinforcing settler colonialism and American economic extraction of the Middle East. If America withdrew support to Israel, this feedback loop would cease and Israel would be greatly diminished or completely collapse.

Saying Israel controls America is simply wrong, stop saying this. I will remove your post. ✌️

Nice struggle session you got going on here. Would be a shame if someone farted on it.

capital controls the US and if elections were publicly funded and no PACs were allowed then there would be no AIPAC to control US policy in israel’s favor

with that being said i absolutely do not support removing people’s posts simply for saying israel controls the US. its definitely a miscalculated statement but unless its specifically about jewish people then removing comments like that, intentionally or not does not help with the “israel controls america” shit they already think. i think its also kinda fucked up to take people’s ability to voice their frustrations about the state of our country away. so many laws in the US exist to protect israel. so much of our politics is just “how would you protect israel?”. everyone on tv is a zionist spewing israeli propaganda. you’re gonna push people to the wrong side of hating israel if you start removing posts criticizing the israeli state, which has nothing to do with jewish people

i just do not see anything wrong with saying X country controls Y country. people are allowed to be wrong. if they make it about jews then yeah remove and ban because thats not someone who can be educated or reasoned with but israel is a state and they do not represent jewish people so i just really don’t see how its useful for anything other than unintentionally protecting israel from criticism
