If you see prominent right wing figures “suddenly making sense” when they talk about Israel or Palestine - don’t be tempted to think you have common ground with them.
It’s not “wow, even this evil person sees how bad these people are.”
It’s “this right wing propagandist found a tool to push their views into the mainstream.”
They’re using the cause to make you listen to them. They’re trying to get you used to their conspiracies and their talking points. Anyone who has a platform full of antisemitism or Islamophobia shouldn’t be listened to, even if you think their words right now make sense.
That’s intentional. It’s a recruitment tactic. It’s a way to normalize their views. Watch who you’re listening to.
