          Ah thought we just meant in the attempted trump assassin category, but yeah I haven’t thought about it in a while, not since I had to correct some lemmitor that not all the deaths in that incident were Jewish

      Good point, I have to admit I forgot about him too. What is up with that though? I would have thought he’d be more consistently demonized, seeing as he was the only one who could be said to actually be a leftist and had some genuinely correct views. Or I maybe that’s it, there’s incentive not to remind anyone of him lest more people start looking into his reasoning, where as these others are mostly just boilerplate libs?

        if they make it into a giant culture war issue it’s gonna turn into another luigi situation with the masses all siding with the killer. I think they’d rather just use it on the downlow as propaganda within zionist circles but not really emphasize it in the ‘public square’ where Israel is…rather unpopular currently
