I never find much to agree with when Mr Blair speaks, but this I do agree.

People need to be aware of this growing link.

Can you imagine when I was leader of the Labour Party having a conversation with me about whether antisemitism was in the Labour Party or not?" he asked. "We wouldn't even have that conversation and there is, I'm afraid, a nascent alliance between what I would call bits of the sort of Islamist type of politics and the left.

"And you can see this not just here in the UK, you can see it across Europe and yes, it gives rise to antisemitism... it's not your traditional antisemitism of the right-wing nature but it's every bit as pernicious."

What would that be? a few yokels talking about master races? those types of people hate all other races equally not just Jews specifically.

Nazi's were socialists, collectivists, authoritarians, controlled education (brainwashed kids through Hitler youth), controlled the media for propaganda purposes, colluded with business/corporations to help them achieve their goals, hated Jews specfiically for economic/political reasons, had no interest in maintaining national borders across Europe.

the Nazis eliminated individual freedoms and pronounced the creation of a Volk Community (Volksgemeinschaft)—a society which would, in theory, transcend class and religious differences.

So.. does all of this sound like todays political left or right? I'll give you a clue most of todays 'right' are staunch supporters of individual freedoms under the law over collectivist/social media consencus/whatever we believe is a fact and anyone who disagrees is evil nonsense.

Anti-semitism is on the left because that is where it has always been, you can't support collectivist policies and not hate a group of people who are probably the most successful capitalists in history.

They will do anything to get in to power, then everyone regrets it.

Antisemitism usually runs deep in socialism/communism.

Ironically, Islam is about as conservative as it gets. It's very far from liberal.

Only one of the statements is true though. The left really are mostly losers.

That's factually incorrect, economically on both sides of that coin the vast majority are losers, politically are losers because the West is currently unable to function correctly and socially (dependent on how intelligent they are) are losers because they are tribal to the point that it'd be easier to reset everything.

Not really, no; it always seems like a very bad dream.


As to claims of Anti-Semitism in the Labour Party, it is probably 99% (maybe more) a response to Jeremy Corbyn's long-term support of the Palestinians and the theft of their land.

His statement is correct though. Yours isn't.

Prove it, hombre, and dont do what commies do, ignoring realistic examples, use the great right wing gifts to the world, Trump and May's governments, such beacons of the gilded right wing purity. Inb4 Venezuelalol.

No. I don't care enough. I can say however that every leftie I've met all tick certain boxes and these all make them losers who want to do as little as possible and ride on the coat tails of others. The very definition of losers.

The left (of all spectrums) courts Islam like it’s some sort of ally. It’s totally nonsensical in every plausible way.
