Sorta. The dynasty that formed and ruled the tsardom of Russia were from Kievan Rus heritage by way of Rurik.

Muscovy was the polity that really formed the framework of the tsardom out of the princedoms left in the wake of the Khanates.

For the people I was referencing it was more racial association with people from South and Central America being predominantly Catholic.

I remember a congregation out where I live, in Yankeestan, had astened a crude structure onto their truckbed and they called it their mobile chapel. They’d drive out to agriculture zones and try to preach to migrants against catholicism.

It’d be a lot easier to refer to the Nakba, unless you’re deliberately avoiding that reference.

700,000 Palestinians fled in 1947/48

They just did that. No reason.

Protestant/Unionist

That is mainly the root of it. The Catholic-Protestant divide is mirrored as the Republican-Unionist divide. Even if the religion could be separated the political implication remained.

Which made things especially tough for the Protestants in the republic and all the Catholics in the union.

If it’s based on the reason given for when MrKaplan got banned by this user two days ago, I think it’s pretty strong evidence this is an interpersonal spat and retaliatory.

Classic.

Yeah there’s been a whole recent wave of mass bannings from the FHF team. So I am guessing there’s a larger and more interpersonal issue going on between these users.

The username is the relevant part whereas now that user calling anyone a Zionist is a call for a slapping. I thought to add the link so anyone can just read from the horse’s mouth so to speak.

It was a username, which was changed to be or include ‘MurderAllZionists’. This was taken personally, it appears.

*found the thread directly from the user in question. https://anarchist.nexus/c/yepowertrippinbastards/p/598026/lw-banned-me-and-defederated-an-over-murder-all-zionists-in-my-display-name

Conservatism can easily be a form of liberalism, and can even be considered progressive. It sounds contradictory but conservatism of progressive traditions, customs, and values is a component of many liberal societies. That’s your Teddy Roosevelts, the Southern New Deal Democrats, and the Blue Dog coalition.

there is no necessary overlap afaik.

As long as it is recognized that overlap isn’t a necessity, I think this is fine. The important thing to remember is that none of these terms are wholly exclusive to each other. Discussion just needs to agree to the context of used terms.

Plenty of (big C) Conservatives want to conserve the social institutions of racial segregation or other regressive concepts. But you can also legitimately say Xi Xinping is a conservative in the context of the PRC. So there’s a wide field for the context of the terms to get stretched around and (mis)used and (mis)interpreted.

Liberalism too. It is a concept that has existed and been applied to right wing monarchies and left wing republics. The entire French Revolution is exemplary in how these terms have no strict limit and so a baseline of agreed context is what is necessary.

Sure. Nothing is really stopping anyone from doing that when judging a content creator. If you’re deep into wondering why he’s got so many defenders and attackers online though: he’s political. People get wrapped up in that.

There’s not a lesser of two evils argument there, so it makes sense it’d be unconvincing.

This is more of a ‘judge him by his enemies’ type thing.

This is barely Sabra hummus.

As far as political streamers with fanbases under 30, he’s one of the few alternatives to the manosphere types and groypers. People can have a kneejerk reaction to defend someone those groups routinely target.

So you know our creepy uncle who runs a corner store? Has he met a customer for you!

Yep. Back around 2013 when the national credit rating slid down it became legal/not prohibited to do so after a lawsuit.

There are actually a few twitch streamers that have political experience who stream about politics. They’ve run for office, or worked in D.C., so they have some interesting insights.

But that’s not Asmongold by a longshot.

I kinda like it. It’s just neat enough.

A lot of old city plats follow the exact pattern of that square, so I’d be curious what the sequence of development was.

I can feel the stress and exhaustion emanating from this image.
