Ok, I'll say it, I find it weird and antisemitic to call musk a "Jew-Apologist". This conflates Jewish people with Israel and Zionism. This is exactly what the Zionists want.

Musk is clearly a Zionist so call him that.

Edit: or am I mistranslating what apologist means in english?

You are not. It is a typical Zionist tactic, despite most of the loudest anti-Zionists in America being Jews.

Ah got it, it’s me being dumb. I had no idea who Farzad was and did not understand it was a fascist trolling. I thought it came from some random person who saw musk as a nazi but was confused on the wording and had some latent antisemitism.

Should have guessed Musk would only reply to fellow fascists.

Yeah they are having their field day for sure. It will be interesting to see how they fuck everything up and alienate the entire rest of the governem t with their rhetoric.

Isn't Zionism a subject of infighting for neo-Nazis because some of them are like, "Guys, it might be practical to just let them all have their homeland instead of trying to push for Hitler 2.0! Don't ya think?"

Jesus fucking Christ...

That, and some of them just hate Arabs more than they hate Jews, so they're more than happy to cheer for any actions against Israel's neighbors.

Yep, I forgot to mention that they may see it as a "two birds, one stone" kind of thing because they're like, "Jews are kept out of Western countries and they oppress and kill Arabs while they're at it? Damn!"

Many such cases
