    His wife is Israeli isnt she? I also thought they were pretty anti israel and she tried turning away from that life… I havent watched any of his videos since the “hugh mungus” era so I’ve no clue.

      They recently had a kid, all Hasbara had to do was give them a couple mil contract to help their kids future in exchange for taking a side on an issue he never really cared about or brought up before October 7th. The ol’ “I have kids to take care of” spiritual bypass is a powerful excuse for going along with atrocities, 99% of westerners practice this every day.

      They support Israel’s right to exist and were disgusted by October 7th. Idk what the OC is talking about, but this platform is filled with Hamas/Russian propaganda - as much as people see the Russian tankies, they don’t see the connection, apparently.

        You can’t be a Tankie and a supporter of Russia today. The USSR is gone. What are you even talking about? Do you even know what the words your using mean?

          Their beliefs don’t make any sense no. But it’s still true that they hold them.

          After much pondering of this mystery, I’ve found the likely explanation to be that they are less pro communism than they are anti the USA. And that their thinking is firmly rooted in cold war propaganda.

          The West Bloc is the source of all evil, so anyone the USA supports is evil and anyone who oppose them is good. Russia must be justified in their invasion because it is opposed by the West.

        An apartheid state does not have a right to exist. It must dismantle it’s systems of apartheid if it wishes to continue to exist.
