    Why not Larp as a full Catholic or something else that'll be more supportive abroad and to the deranged far-right constituents. Why Judaism?????

      I'm guessing his opinions on most things are just whatever the last 3 people he spoke to told him would make him look "very intelligent."

            Yes, Jews, Muslims, and many Christian sects have expressly forbidden necromancy, communicating, or inquiring things with the dead, as it is labeled as witchcraft and a part of demonology. It is a part of demonology since it is believed that malevolent spirits could use the communication to free themselves from Hell, or trick humans into doing their bidding.

      Looking at his supervillainhero costume, he does not consider half-measures, especially in being cringe. Also ancaps don't really seem to like catholicism, too much Nietzsche for that.

      Pope called Israel a terrorist state. Secifically he called the Israel-Palestine war and Israel's acts in Gaza terrorism

      although he did make clear that he hopes the Israeli and Palestinian people can live in peace

          yes of course, but i mean people in the right who traditionally hate jews, for some reason are zionists now

          yesterday i came across some stupid right winger in my city who knows a friend of mine and my friend told him he went to see roger waters and he said something like waters is being an antisemite and i swear i've heard that fuck say shit about jews a few times in the past

            On the contrary, zionism is a deeply antisemitic projet. The British Empire was so happy to help colonizing Palestine because it would mean all European Jews could leave. The project is that instead of fixing prejudice against Jews in Europe, they want them to have a state so they can go to that place, abandoning their real roots and lifestyle. Part of the answer to Zionism is actually to destroy anti-Semitism at home so that no one will urge Jewish people to abandon their real land and people, which is whatever nation and community they were raised to.

          • ah, I see; there's definitely some cognitive dissonance involved for a lot of anti-Jewish people who support "Israel" (aside from those who realized that "Israel" is only using Judaism as an excuse, but I don't think there are many of them among that crowd), but there's also the bizarre belief among some anti-Jewish Christians that "Israel" will somehow trigger the second coming of Jesus (I don't remember what the argument was), condemning all non-Christians to hell

            Another factor here is, people on the far right like ethno-states. They want their own ethnostate and they would also like Jews to go away, so it's a win-win for them. They get to point to a modern ethnostate as a model (see Zelensky talking about Israel being the model for Ukraine's future) and whitewash their own antisemitism through their support for zionism.

    This is the most cringe thing I’ve read in a while.

    You don’t have to convert to be a Zionist.
