Why not. I'm always whining about their broken culture and Woke Ways. Why not offer a handshake not to endorse -- -nor condemn- any of their harmless attitudes, but for joining the ranks of voters and thought shapers.

Maybe David Bowie's had more wisdom than I thought. Mind you they were great in the opening scene of The Breakfast Club.

“And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations.
They're quite aware of what they're going through"

"Young Americans: Jews are 'oppressors,' calls for genocide not hate speech - poll
More than half of young Americans said the long-term answer for the conflict is for "Israel to be ended and given to Hamas.""

Think Blue. Think Progressivism. Think Woke.

Of course, I will really passionately rebuke this. After all like President Obama said: There's blood on everybody's hands here.

Yeah, that covers it I guess.

And how, Handshake of the Week......to the new generation. Meet the new boss....sure as shit not same as the old boss :)

EchotaSheeple: Think Blue. Think Progressivism. Think Woke.

Where, in that polling, does it say one thing about the 18 to 24-year-old cohort being blue or progressive or woke?

Hell, even identify that cohort -- or any part of it -- as democrats?

Nowhere.

In short, you're lying.

But -- - I had "a link!"

Either way, let's pretend it's all a lie.

Let it fester and grow..... ;)

Per the article,

“Two-thirds (About 67%) of young Americans between the ages of 18-24 believe that Jews as a class are oppressors and should be treated as oppressors, according to a new poll conducted by Harris Insights and Analytics and Harvard University's Center for American Political Studies (CAPS).”

I would call them, ‘blue, progressives and woke.
They certainly are not among the conservative class.

You can call them whatever you want to call them but the survey doesn't identify the politics of any of the 18-24-year-olds, so you're lying too.

And if you think conservatives are not antisemites, it's just another of your delusions.

1. The student leader of the College Republicans chapter at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse resigned from her post this week after group members scrawled an antisemitic message on a campus sidewalk and promoted it on social media.

Gee, Wisconsin.

2. The Harford County chapter of the Maryland Young Republicans was dissolved late Thursday night after chapter leadership allegedly distributed an anti-Semitic email to its listserve.

3. The Young Republicans of New Jersey was warned today by senior state Republican officials to "clean house" on Young Republicans "preaching racism and religious intolerance."

4. We conduct several experiments on an original survey of 3500 U.S. adults, including an oversample of young adults. We oversampled young adults because unlike other forms of prejudice that are more common among older people, antisemitism is theorized to be more common among younger people. Contrary to the expectation of horseshoe theory, the data show the epicenter of antisemitic attitudes is young adults on the far right.

5. Top New Jersey Republican party officials promised an investigation today into charges that members of the state’s Young Republican party sang anti-Semitic and racist songs at a state convention and at a national convention... the lyrics sung at the two gatherings were: "Riding through the Reich in a Mercedes-Benz; Shooting all the kikes, making lots of friends; Rat tat-tat-tat-tat, mow the bastards down; Oh what fun it is to have the Nazis back in town."

Delusional.

Someone’s a tad sensitive that all the monsters the libs thought were contained are out flying their freak flags.

Always remember.

Nobody hates like a liberal.

Yep, a couple posters here keep reminding me of just that, every time they slip into the PA mode.

LM: “Two-thirds (About 67%) of young Americans between the ages of 18-24 believe that Jews as a class are oppressors and should be treated as oppressors, according to a new poll conducted by Harris Insights and Analytics and Harvard University's Center for American Political Studies (CAPS).”

From the same study:


Do you think that Jews as a class are oppressors and should be treated as oppressors or is that a false ideology

18-24 67% think they are oppressors

**but**

Do you think Israel has a right to exist as the homeland of the Jewish people or that Israel has no right to exist?

18-24 69% right to exist

It's ambiguous to me. I'd have to talk to them. My absolute guess is they are sympathetic with Palestinians and would like for Israel to stop, but when pressed are disgusted with Hamas and don't like Netanyahu. I wouldn't call that view woke, I'd call it a normal person.
