You are not a leftist if you aren't anti-zionist

Amazed that Chaya isnt here yet to defend glorious israel

Yeah, self-hating liberalism taken to an extreme.

ethnic essentialism
SINS OF THE FATHER
reifying dramatic storytellings of history and assigning guilt, responsibility, vindication, deservedness, etc to the 'actors' in these stories(countries, ethnic groups) as though they were people and this was tumblr hetalia fanfic
all sorts of things drive this kind of thinking

it's different from location to location, my hometown is infected, I really feel like the only anti-imperialist here (with some cool Bockhinists). But all in all there is like a 50/30/20 ratio between Anarchists, Anti-Germans and Communists between the Antifa groups.
The problem is that even people who dont use Israel as their main topic are trapped in mainstream Israel apologia. This is like in the US I guess.
Sorry for my bad english, its late here
