It's so funny how Germans are trying to make antisemitism appear as though it were imported from the Arab and Muslim words, not just b/c of the Holocaust, but also b/c 80% of antisemitic incidents in Germany are from right wing thugs.

I believe that the symbol signifies the unity of the industrial working class and the peasantry. Also, would having an American flag in one's bio signify approbation of the Trail of Tears or dispossession of Native Americans?

Can't imagine Sanders ever doing that. "I’m not good at backslapping. I’m not good at pleasantries. If you have your birthday, I’m not going to call you up to congratulate you, so you’ll love me and you’ll write nice things about me."

I am not saying that one ought not to vote for Biden. But Biden and his spokespersons have consistently ruled out conditioning military aid and calling for "red lines". One cannot ignore Biden's complicity in war crimes.

It's more personal for a lot of Americans (both for and against) than other conflicts and their atrocities, given that the U.S.'s overwhelming support for Israel is the decisive factor. I think it makes sense for an American to relate to it in the same way as Iraq War, say.

Not defeatist--just clear-eyed. There are very few Gideon Levys in Israel. And anyway, you always start negotiating with maximal demands. I certainly think every politician who supports settlements should be sanctioned--including the moderate Lapid.

Biden is very hawkish on this. 90% of Palestinian fatalities have been noncombatants, and Biden has said there are no red lines. He also kept the embassy in Jerusalem and continued Trump's policy of recognizing sovereignty over Jerusalem, Golan Heights, and Abraham Accords.

The notion of purity is an interesting one: it is typically selectively invoked to impugn the red lines of one's political opponents, rather than one's own. Israel's conduct has been condemned not only by American leftists, but all the world's leading human rights organizations.

For example, let's say a bunch of faculty decide to shun a faculty member whose opinion on a certain issue they dislike. This is illiberal, sure, but how do you work against this? You can't really force people to fraternize with a faculty member; that would be v. illiberal!

I agree with you, but there's also like a Böckenforde Dictum-like problem, whereby this spirit of toleration cannot be enforced through liberal democratic means. This shows, I think, that "freedom of speech" is a notion containing latent contradictions that is thus ill-defined.
