I met a guy in a bar, and they asked me why the democrats lost (we don’t live in the US)

I replied with something along the lines of “because they didn’t condemn the genocide in Gaza” and they responded with “isn’t that hypocritical? The left claims to be against antisemitism”

I tried to explain the usual antizionism isn’t antisemitism, but before I finished they responded with “but we have to give the [antisemitic slur] something”

I had to leave for my turn on the karaoke, but after that they came up to me apologizing and explaining how they hate both sides

I don’t want to live in a shitty web comic

    All this combined with internalized xenophobia

    This guy doesn’t know anything about the middle east or the us, but he feels compelled to have an opinion on it

    When he feels like he messed up, his immediate thought is “I hated the wrong group”
