    I understand the right wingers. I don’t like it but I at least understand it.

    What I don’t understand are the far-left who willingly follows in far-left Russian propaganda.

    Remember folks: Russia in 2016 pushed both Black Lives Matter AND Blue Lives Matter. Russia played both sides because they want chaos amongst us. They will coopt and corrupt American calls.

    The leftist pro-Palestine stuff (especially to the point where you’re supposed to vote for Jill Stein) is one obvious example to me. Iran and Russia are aligned on this issue. Ukraine and Israel are also aligned in our global posture.

    I understand the need to protect Gaza civilians too and I think that Israeli administration are full of cowboys whose anti regulation stance is leading to atrocities. But we can’t just absorb far-left Iranian or Russian propaganda on that matter.

    I 100% expect Russia and Iran to continue to use Gaza as a wedge issue to hurt the left. The left is supposed to be smart enough to see the disinfo tactics turning us away from the Ukrainians but suddenly go blind on the other geopolitical matter.

    It’s just like the Black Lives Matter Russian disinfo campaign. They are very good at corrupting our ideals into us hating our allies and hating ourselves.
