Insane Religious Fanaticism Is a Requirement for US Empire Managers
During her Senate confirmation hearing for UN ambassador, Trump nominee Elise Stefanik was asked by Senator Chris Van Hollen if she agreed with Israeli Nazis Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotritch that Israel has a “Biblical right” to the West Bank. Stefanik said yes.
It’s so wild how bat shit insane religious delusions are almost a prerequisite for acceptance in the highest echelons of Official Washington. These confirmation hearings are like,
“Are you mentally ill enough to do US foreign policy?”
“Yes, I have the requisite mental illnesses to do US foreign policy.”
“Your brain is a festering stew of psychosis and you have trouble distinguishing fantasy from reality?”
“Yes, I promise that is the case.”
The world is ruled by religious fanatics with nukes. If a normal person says they’re the second coming of Jesus Christ they get medicated and institutionalized. If you make equally insane religious claims on the Senate floor, they let you run an empire.

The Anti-Defamation League has published a statement defending Elon Musk’s use of blatant Nazi salutes at Donald Trump’s inauguration rally, saying he “made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute,” and saying that everyone should “take a breath” over the controversy and give Musk “the benefit of the doubt”.
The ADL telling everyone to cool their jets about Elon Musk throwing up textbook Nazi salutes at a political event should be the final nail in the coffin for the “antisemitism” narrative. It won’t be, but it should be.
This makes it so transparently obvious that groups like the ADL do not exist to curb discrimination against Jews, they exist to promote the geopolitical and military interests of an apartheid state in the middle east. This is why you see them spending 99 percent of their energy shrieking about high-profile supporters of Palestinian human rights like Jeremy Corbyn and Greta Thunberg and almost no energy focusing on actual antisemitic white supremacists who want to hurt Jews.
Imagine if someone like Corbyn or Thunberg had repeatedly thrown up a Nazi salute at a political event after denouncing the abuses of the state of Israel. Just imagine how aggressively groups like the ADL would work to ensure they never appeared in public again. The entire western political-media class would unify to stomp their reputation through the floorboards forever. But because it came from someone who’s been falling all over himself to support
