It’s not like any candidate was actually good but they did pick the worst one.

Yeah if your response to that is to keep bringing up their "religion" (the last avenue for liberal internalized racism; as conservatives bring up "culture") of the people currently being slaughtered, you're too far gone.

It is a huge driving force and a major part of their motivations. You can't ignore it, and raising concerns about it is not racist. It's not even a statement about race, it's about religion. Rather than acknowledging it is a valid concern, you call me a racist? Okay then. I guess the conversation is over. Thanks for sharing your viewpoints though. You did raise valid points, and I felt that we were communicating well, and pretty much in agreement at the end there. Cheers.

Edit: and in case it was somehow unclear, I already stated that I think Israel should be held accountable for their human rights violations, and I think the situation over there is an enormous tragedy.
