do you know much about Israeli politics tho?

I've been following it closely given that there's a small but real chance that Netanyahu may lose the election

he's getting Muellered right now with trumped-up charges

I’d actually love that. I haven’t been able to follow much so I’d love a little lesson in how Israeli politics works. I know the Likud has allied with other parties like European Parliaments do to form a stronger majority but I’d like better details on the issue

it's supremely gay

Israel has one of the most fractured political scenes of any democracy

they have proportional voting with a single nationwide constituency so the largest party usually gets 30 seats max (in a parliament of 120 seats total) and alliances usually consist of four or more parties, making them laughably unstable

there hasn't been a single Israeli government that has served a full term in decades for this reason

the Netherlands and Belgium have similar systems, Belgium's is made worse by mandatory federal power-sharing between Walloons and Flemings, which is why it usually takes them months to form a government

the ideal system is something like what the Poles and Hungarians have where there's enough proportionality to allow minority parties to win seats but there's a clearly dominant party that can form a stable government

they don't call the new Left Wing Alliance opposing Netenyahu, a Left Wing Alliance over there

to the Israeli Media, anything other than Labor is Centrist at best lol

That’s true

that's a tactic used across the western world

I'd be interested out of morbid curiosity if nothing else.

left-wingers are never depicted as such unless they're genuine radicals like Tulsi Gabbard

@mattforney Yeah conservativism is dead in the mainstream

in Hungary the far-left Momentum party, for example, is called "centrist"

same with that faggot party in Poland that wants gay marriage

A story about our favorite leaf is underway. It will be called The Wop of Milan

@mattforney Lol is that what it’s translated to?

if you don't want to replace your own ppl, u a pussy ass centrist

@Deleted User no, it's literally called "Momentum" because they're a Soros-backed bird-dogging party

like how "pro-democracy" protesters in Ukraine and Egypt always had English-language signs

@mattforney ah ok ti

And yeah I watched a lot of news about Ukraine from independent sources

democracy in leftist lingo basically means having total social control and a non right wing right wing political opposition

that is what they mean when they say "our democracy" is in danger

Yep

That’s why Trump while cucked at parts scares them p

the Israeli election will be really interesting. the Internationalist Jews really really really want Netanyahu gone

Also the fact he’s going through hell to get the wall up is in the long run a good thing since it will show the Democrats. You wanna break the wall? This is what you’ll have to go through

@mattforney the entire Ashkenazi group wants him out

why tho

@Deleted User he’s a misfit. I think he’s ashkenazem but is right wing

the Internationalist Jews bought their own bullshit about ethnonationalism being bad

Mizrahi and Sephardics vote right wing usually p

polls show that a majority of young American Jews are either indifferent to Israel or pro-Palestinian

racial minorities are also anti-Israel (see: Ilhan Omar)

the left sees Israel as a white supremacist colonial state

this is why they have been pushing for Jewish Day Schools recently
