Are the democrats politicizing the storm?

I am perplexed by this headline on the World Socialist Website this morning ( I myself am a longtime independent democratic socialist ) : [ "Fascist antisemitism rears its head in hurricane disinformation campaign Neo-Nazi and pro-Trump sources are flooding social media with false claims that Jewish government officials are withholding aid from storm-ravaged “white” areas. " ] To be sure , the David North's Socialist Equality Party ,via their website, is fiercely anti-Zionism. In " OUR democracy " USA that equates, via the mainstream news media, with " anti-Semitism ". The former " Trotskyist " American based Socialist Workers Party still led by cultist crackpot Jack Barnes , but still " Leftist " , now slobbers over Israel as a " refuge for Jews ", reversing its decades old anti-Zionism position. " Israel as a refuge for Jews " was true enough in the immediate post-war years . . But very soon the ZIONIST nation-state in displacing and oppressing the resident Palestinians was guilty of well documented crimes against humanity. And for 70 long years ! If Trump's Republican Party is playing with latent anti-Semitic feelings , why are significant numbers of American Jews - like Alan Dershowitz - leaning toward Trump ? Could it be that APARTHEID Israel 's Benjamin Netanyahu and " OUR democracy "'s Donald Trump do have much in common ? Call it pro-Zionist FASCISM ! And yet the Democratic Party of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden is packed with pro-Zionist members. I learn on TV news ( " FAKE NEWS " ? ) that prominent Democrats, led by New England Patriot's owner , Robert Kraft , are starting a media campaign against " HATE ". How do you eliminate HATE in a society based on capitalism , militarism, belligerent Zionism , and the systematic exploitation and oppression of the working class of ALL races and ethnic groups, ALL spectrum genders and sexual orientations ? In the context of this capitalist USA society a successful campaign against HATE would only lead ,ironically, to the OPPRESSED loving ( ? ) their OPPRESSORS ! To be sure , democratic socialists at least rise above personal hatred. They focus their righteous wrath on THE SYSTEM. Would celebrity " liberal " , " progressive " ( and pro-torture of suspected terrorists ) Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz supervise a branch of ACLU in Gaza , Palestine ? Meanwhile, you have the very voices of " Deep State ", Pentagon officials , CIA officials, former Trump allies saying on ludicrous TV commercials that ONLY Democrat Kamala Harris can defend " OUR democracy " - of which MAGA Republican Donald Trump and some 75 million ( last count ) American voter " deplorables " are the arch-enemy . Have FUN WITH CHOICE on Election Day 2024 ! Reply
