Listen, I will be voting for Biden, who is clearly worlds better than Trump. But the idea that Palestinian Americans who won't vote for someone funding the ethnic cleansing of their own family members are "purity test" losers is...well, its a take.

Wait so is the thought that any criticism of Biden is both-sidesing? Is that the political climate we've found ourselves in? Forbidden to criticize someone with a D after their name because idiots might think "oh I guess now I'll vote for Trump"?

This minister in particular didn't serve because he was considered a suspected terrorist. Too far right for the IDF - almost impressive.

By and large Otzma Yehudit voters do serve in the army. You are confusing Religious Zionists (who do serve, and make up the bulk of the far-right and settlers in Israel) with the Ultra-Orthodox (who do not serve, and largely don't have views about the conflict and are more worried about social programs for their community who are by and large poor).

Come on, misogyny is definitely part of the ideology of the right, but let's not act like there aren't plenty of liberal misogynists - have you ever read a Reddit thread having anything to do with women?
