"Progressives should not make the same mistake that Ernst Thälmann made in 1932. The leader of the German Communist Party, Thälmann saw mainstream liberals as his enemies, and so the center and left never joined forces against the Nazis. Thälmann famously said that ‘some Nazi trees must not be allowed to overshadow a forest’ of social democrats, whom he sneeringly called ‘social fascists.’

After Adolf Hitler gained power in 1933, Thälmann was arrested. He was shot on Hitler’s orders in Buchenwald concentration camp in 1944."

    Considering it’s American aid workers being killed in Gaza, it don’t matter. A vote for an AIPAC funded candidate is a vote for genocide.

    Israel is killing Americans now and the currently sitting president is supporting them in doing so.

    EVERY POLITICIAN RECEIVING FUNDS FROM ISRAEL RIGHT NOW SHOULD BE PROTESTED!

    The genocide is already here for Islamic Americans, Trump just expands it to the rest of us. First them, then us.
