    Omgaaaauuuuhghhd bruuuhhh, one group was shitty and wouldn’t take a firm stance against Israel bc they didn’t have a fucking backbone. They’re shitty people that need to step down. They are not essentially the same.

    The group you’re comparing them to:

    •has said they wanted to bomb Gaza into oblivion and build a resort.

    •are currently snatching students who attended pro-palestenian protests off of U.S. streets and shipping them to detention centers hundreds of miles away, (these detention centers are located in my own state in the desolate middle of nowhere, where even lawyers are afraid to even go protest because of threats of harm or being disappeared)

    •are dismantling 3 civil rights offices for getting in the way of their immigration policies, one exists to provide benefits to refugees, one that exists to investigate claims of inhumane treatment in those detention center, and the third isn’t even focused on immigration, it exists to protect civil rights and liberties for all Americans dealing with DHS agencies and had to be created after the patriot act was passed by Republicans following 9/11 and too many rights were being violated

    •have repeatedly openly ignored and publicly joked about just tossing due process, which is a constitutional right that anyone in this country is supposed to be entitled to, regardless of citizenship. When asked a little over a week ago if he needed to uphold the constitution, Trump said he didn’t know. Not like a joke. He really didn’t know if that was something he would be expected to comply with as president, as long as his lawyers told him he could ignore it.
