Is it trolls, or is it people that agree on 90-95% of the issues and are more compelled to voice it now and since they aren't in 100% agreeance people think it's trolling?

"Truth" is stretching it

Jewish people who supported Israel or criticized Palestine in a protest setting, who then claimed the only reason they were being responded to (by the anti-Israel/pro-Palestine group) was because they were Jewish is dishonest.

Just because they started the video conveniently to maximize this dishonesty does not make it the "truth". It's the opposite.

1) Midterms

2) The TDS crowd always get excited when they think they "have" Trump. Iran is the latest example of this.


It's not just on this board, either. Candace and Tucker are clearly being paid to turn "heel," and it's hardly a coincidence that this is an election year.

Which we all know is much, much worse than putting forth whatever the right programs people to say.

The problem we have today is a political divide. Too many people here do not even come close to thinking for themselves. Yes, the admin does many things I like. But I do have the right to criticize what I do not like. The shills on this board will then quickly resort to saying I am anti-semitic or have TDS. With no basis behind the claims, that is by definition...trolling.

Again, this is stance opposing Israel and Zionism, not "da joos"
FALSE!
If that were the case, virtually no Jews on lefty campuses would have evr been harassed. Should we characterize "opposing Israel and Zionism" by harassing Jews on campus as indicative of GenY-Z's stereotypical lack of capacity for critical thinking?

Show me these examples of Jews talking out against Israel and for Palestinians who were attacked for being Jewish.

Being left of center or anti-Trump does not make one a leftist UNLESS you're defining "leftist" so broadly it loses meaning


For a political discussion board, I find that most members totally lack any understanding of the political spectrum and what makes one right or left of center.

They totally lack the understanding that until very recently, there never was a true leftist party in tUSA and that even today, the Dem old guard is still right of center.

Hell, most here refuse to believe they blindly support a lifelong Democrat.

It's a pretty nifty self-fulfilling prophecy. There are tons of leftists here, and if you don't agree then you're a leftist yourself.

The board was flooded with political neophytes in 2016 and this was even more pronounced in 2019 when this became one of the larger Q outlets.

Wait.... are you saying what protestors on major college campuses in the US, especially the the Ivy Leagues, have been saying about jews is just "wrong think/speech"?

They beat each other up on Columbia’s campus and a few other places.


UCLA and MIT stopped them from going to class. Some were in the pro-Palestine movement. There were interviews.

Education & Workforce Committee Releases Bombshell Report on Antisemitism in Higher Ed
Washington, D.C.,
March 17, 2026


The Rise of Radical Antisemitism on College Campuses

Under the leadership of Chairman Tim Walberg (R-MI), the Education and Workforce Committee released a new majority staff report on antisemitism on college campuses.

• University leaders are still failing to show strong, decisive leadership to address antisemitism on college campuses.

• Faculty members are legitimizing and amplifying antisemitism on college campuses. Across multiple universities, the Committee discovered many faculty members who promoted antisemitism. Faculty members sought to strip Jewish students of protections against harassment, incited or celebrated violence, and left Jewish students isolated and alienated.

• Student groups are acting as ringleaders driving antisemitic harassment and hostility. Groups like Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) are ringleaders for the antisemitic harassment faced by Jewish students on campus, often with the support of faculty members.

• American universities operating campuses in the Middle East are failing in critical ways to fulfill their stated goal of promoting American values.

The issues that get labeled "leftist" aren't even leftist ideals. If we're adhering to actual principles (big ask, I know), most of the issues I support, for example, are traditionally small-government and conservative issues. They are issues that the founders themselves championed like criminal justice reforms and limited use of cash bail.
