Few things are as cringey and creepy as the Democratic fetish for turning everything into a weird cult family scenario. As the left's obsession with identity strengthens artificial silos of 'us' and 'them,' they compensate by referring to other identity groups with the same politics as, 'siblings.'
*shudder*
It was bad enough when Rep. Cori Bush looked us (Jews) all straight in the eyes and said, with a low, monotone whisper, 'Your Congresswoman loves you.'
Chag Purim Sameach to all of our Jewish neighbors in St. Louis & beyond.

Your Congresswoman loves you💜

Now we're her siblings in some weird, extremely toxic, extended family of protest enthusiasts.
Thank you to our Jewish siblings at @IfNotNowOrg for your steadfast leadership in our push for a lasting ceasefire, the return of all hostages & the safety of all Israelis & Palestinians.

Together, we’ll #RejectAIPAC & defeat far-right extremism in the U.S. & across the world. https://t.co/7ubhqNem8J
It should be noted that when she uses the word, 'Jewish,' she doesn't mean me, or Ben Shapiro or the general population of Israel.
IfNotNow, like so many other leftwing progressive 'Jewish.' organizations, is a typical leftwing progressive anti-Israel activist group, just using their Jewish identity as a shield.
They describe themselves as, 'American Jews organizing our community to end U.S. support for Israel's apartheid system. We demand equality, justice & a thriving future for all #CeasefireNOW'
IfNotNow Movement is proud to endorse five incumbents who are committed to building equality, justice, and a thriving future for all Palestinians & Israelis — and everyone here in the United States:@CoriBush @IlhanMN @JamaalBowmanNY @RashidaTlaib @SummerForPA pic.twitter.com/vJJA532smA

I don't know what AOC, Rep. Pramila Jayapal and Rep. Ayanna Pressley did to get shunned from the list, but most of The Squad is represented, including Junior Member, Rep. Summer Lee.
As all leftwing progressive activist groups like to do, their webpage goes to a petition page which allows a person to choose which kind of Jew they identify as, including Jew of Color.
For those who may not know, Jews are Jews regardless of race.
Not Jewish? That's ok! You can sign the petition as a Non-Jewish Ally.
To say these particular leftwing progressive activists do not represent Jews or Judaism is a profound understatement. But Democrats like them because they get to hide behind them like human shields when engaging in explicit antisemitism.
IfNotNow is not Jewish

IfNotNow is a group of self hating Jews who use their “As a Jew…” label to provide cover for some of the most vile Jew haters in the world to marginalize and attack Jews. Cori Bush is one such antisemite.

In recent times, The Squad as taken to explicitly attacking AIPAC, the American Israel Political Action Committee, a well-respected and bipartisan legacy lobbying group, to represent their anti-Israel outrage.
Join us tonight to take on AIPAC!

Most modern presidents, including Obama and Biden, have spoken at AIPAC. In fact, most of Congress has attended and/or spoken at the event. Until five minutes ago, it was a safe and expected political exercise, like attending the State of the Union speech.
But since the very sharp leftward turn of the Democratic party, the extremist activist wing has turned a once liberal and universally supported lobbying group into a bigger hate target than even the NRA.
But for groups like IfNotNow, AIPAC is just another far-right extremist group. Jewish, indeed.
Doesn't matter to The Squad, they have their cover and they're happy to exploit it as long as they can!
It is nice that the swine who hate Jews don't have to hide in their militia compounds anymore. Now anti-Semitism is main stream for the supporter of child rape, murder, mutilation, kidnapping

Liberals pandering to liberals. But we see right through you! Also, keep your weird cult family stuff to yourself.
