Part of why it’s so ridiculous some Americans are legally prohibited from participating in BDS, is people only know if you tell them.
You can just not buy it and never mention why.
And unfortunately, lots of people aren’t even aware it’s illegal:
This whole thing has erupted on my radar in the past month ever since they abducted the girl from Tufts.
HOW does this genocidal state have such an insane stranglehold on our country?
Now I’m getting YouTube ads to demonize Hamas; apparently their effort to “pull people back” and get people sympathetic for October 7 hostages. I AM sympathetic to the hostages!…So why is Israel bombing them??

Before AIPAC there was another Israeli organization that donated to politicians.
After years of fighting a committee ruled that it had to register as a foreign agent.
So Israel created AIPAC and then gave Max donations to the people on the committee that decides who has to register as a foreign agent.
Which is why AIPAC has never had to register.
As both parties continually got rid of campaign finance law, AIPAC kept increasing what they gave, and started throwing insane money at anyone critical of Israel in the primary when it’s cheap.
Over decades they’ve bought the only two options and ensured the only two options were peo-Israel over anything else
The worst part …
They’re not the only organization, even foreign country. Doing this to ensure they always win.
Luckily while Ken Martin does have a pro-Israel bias, while running Minnesota he was one of the few state chairs who refused to work against anti-genocide Dems. Which resulted in Minnesota being one of the progressive strongholds despite no one guessing it would shake out that way a decade ago.
So I want to be clear:
The people fucking up the DNC for decades is gone, we need to support the new DNC to keep it out of their hands. The people running the DNC six months ago wants the current DNC to take the fall so they can move back in.
