Democratic Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance is considered way too right for the woke wing of the Democratic Party. Most of the candiates vying to replace him in the upcoming election are significantly to his Left. Especially that
Palestinian chick who is still upset that her crook father had to serve time in federal prison. If she was DA I very much doubt she'd be seeking hate crime charges.
We are not talking about what you imagine amidst your fevered dreams, we are talking about a thing that actually happened. He is being charged with a hate crime, which counters your narrative that somehow the law is going easy on him because he is a Muslim. All you are proving here is that you do not care about reality, you are either pushing an agenda, or have been taken in by someone who is.
What track record is that? Be specific.
1. You incorrectly assumed AOC would be ecstatic when her only public comments shown in this thread show that she condemned the assault:
I am sure AOC, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar were ecstatic as well!
2. You incorrectly assumed that this post was a justification when it was not presented as such, and the poster has told you that it was not a justification:
Decades of Israeli brutality and oppression have had many effects.
Usually that kind of stuff does not lead to peace.
Is there anything Palestinians do that you will not try to justify?
3. You incorrectly assumed that he would be favored over a "white supremacist" in this case because he is Muslim, when he has actually been charged with a hate crime just like a "white supremacist" should have been:
If anything, him being Muslim works in his favor, since the Left is committed to pretending that antisemitism is a "white supremacy" problem.
And, of course, if you fail to prove your doubling down on #1 by claiming AOC first blamed this attack on "white supremacy", that will be added to the tally. Who knows, you might actually back up that statement and get one assumption right. That would still leave you with a less than stellar track record with regard to the things you assume.
For the record, AOC has commented, but doubt its enough for Derec...
Eventually. I am still not impressed by her statement.
Exactly. You are showing that funinspace was 100% correct. Even AOC saying the exact things you assumed she would not say are not enough to convince you that the assumption that she would hold the opposite position is wrong.
AOC said:
There is no room for anti-semitism in the movement for Palestinian liberation. Our critique is of Israel and their human rights abuses. This is not an excuse for anti-semitic hate crimes
She is still on about so-called "Palestinian liberation" which is
usually a code-word for destroying Israel to establish so-called Palestine "from the river to the sea".
Yet another assumption of yours that I can safely discount.
She is also accusing Israel of "human rights abuses" but she completely ignores many orders of magnitude more egregious Palestinian human rights abuses, especially those by Hamas in Gaza, both against Israeli civilians and their own population.
Kind of like the way you completely ignore US law enforcement abuses against unarmed blacks that are many orders of magnitude more egregious than this assault on a civilian by a civilian? Why do you expect everyone else to condemn everything that is bad in the world, when you fail to do so yourself?
Not only can I now say that you were 100% wrong about AOC, I can also say funinspace was 100% correct about you. Not that either of those things were really in dispute before he posted.
I disagree about all of it. A lukewarm statement against antiseminitism is more than undone by her continued unwarranted attacks against Israel while completely ignoring all the atrocities committed by Hamas and other Palestinian terror groups.
Of course you disagree with it. You made a slew of invalid assumptions in this thread, and that is common in threads in which you participate. You show no awareness of your prejudices, and as a result you allow them to drive you to post incorrect assumptions quite often.
