AOC on removing Omar from committee assignments:
“Don't tell me that this is about a condemnation of antiSemitic remarks when you have a member of the Republican caucus who has talked about Jewish space lasers and also elevated her to some of the highest committee assignments in this body…
This is about targeting women of color in the United States of America.”
✅ Someone tell me how antisemitic Republicans are also pro Zionist ?! ✅
@flexghost @nedhamson It’s really simple. They actually understand that Zionist =/= Jew. All Jews are not Zionists and most Zionists are not Jews. I am a Jew but not a Zionist. Most of the Zionists I’ve met have been Baptists.
@nedhamson @AlliFlowers @flexghost
And this is the reason why it bothers me when SOME clueless people lump ALL Christians together thinking they are but one denomination. These people need to understand better and learn the different nuances before ranting. Take this, for instance ...
@walterdunham @nedhamson @flexghost There are so many Christian denominations that it gets murky. Especially when some don’t consider others (or themselves) Christians.
@AlliFlowers @nedhamson @flexghost
Yes, and the sad thing is that some denominations harbor hate against others who are likewise within the Christian community. Go figure!
@walterdunham @nedhamson @flexghost And there you have the reason there are churches on every corner.
@AlliFlowers @nedhamson @flexghost
I remember this church song that goes "And they'll know we are Christians by our love". The Christian right extremists just made a mockery of that phrase. I guess that went out the window a long time ago too!
@AlliFlowers @walterdunham @flexghost the storefront evangelicals who self-anoint themselves - entrepreneurial “preachers” seem to be the stormtroopers for hate
@nedhamson @walterdunham @flexghost The more I read this the more I think you’ve founded a great Nazi band: Stormtroopers for Hate.
@AlliFlowers @flexghost I grew up in Baptist church that was anti-Catholic and anti-Semitic and now too many are rightwing fascists who have further degraded their “church.”
