    The secret ingredient is that they love bombing brown people.

    The average Palestinian is a brown person, so they want to airstrike the shit out of them.

    The average Russians is a white person, so they don’t want to help Ukraine.

    Hell, some of the GOP’s leading presidential candidates at this point are openly and seriously discussing bombing Mexico.

      Ironically, they’re undecided if they love Jews, but they can put that on the shelf in service of bombing the people they don’t like or care to try to understand.

        As a Jew, the full blown MAGA folks, the evangelicals, and especially the white supremacists don’t like us.

        The MAGA folks see us as a sinister conspiracy behind everything. Soros and globalists are both code words meaning “Jews.” They know that saying “let’s kill all Jews” wouldn’t fly just yet, though, so they play nice and try to get our vote by saying “we support Israel” (even while they promote policies that would hurt Jews in America).

        The evangelicals hate us because we won’t convert to Christianity. However, they think Jews running Israel is a precondition to Jesus coming back and throwing all Jews into hell so they’ll “support Israel.” Of course, the second precondition is Israel suffering a large attack. Peace in the Middle East would hurt those chances so evangelicals do things to disrupt peace talks like support settlers and far right politicians in Israel. At home, the evangelicals would pass a law saying “all Jews must convert to Christianity” if they thought they could get it through.

        As for the white supremacists, they don’t see Jews as being white. The fact that many of us have white skin is seen as a trick of sorts. They really don’t like how they can’t tell if a Jew is walking down the street the same way they can tell that a black man walking down the street is black. They absolutely want to kill all of us. Some of them have tried. At best, they would ship us all off to Israel despite the fact that most American Jews’ don’t have a major connection to Israel.

          The evangelicals hate us because we won’t convert to Christianity.

          Also, because your ancestors allegedly killed their demigod some 2000 years ago. Really, anything to make themselves feel like they are the “chosen ones.”

          But yeah, the Conservative (big C) lore is tenuous at best and an utter nonsensical amalgamation at worst—actively harmful, regardless. Hope you’re staying safe.

          Any time someone writes the word “globalist” they are referencing conspiracy theories about Jews secretly running the world, whether they know that or not.

            Which is disappointing, because the real, broad daylight globalists have plenty of things to criticize them for without making it a Jewish conspiracy.
