#politicalchoice — Public Fediverse posts

This has long been a bugbear of mine and it is good that the Bondi RC is looking into it.

“Royal Commissioner Virginia Bell flagged the inquiry had received a number of submissions from some Jewish people and others who believed the definition of antisemitism the inquiry adopted could be "weaponised in order to suppress criticism of Israel".

It doesn’t take a savant to know the difference between #AntiSemitism and the various flavours of #AntiIsrael, #AntiZionism, #Anti-Ultranationalism, and #Anti-NetanyahuRegime, yet arguably smart and competent peeps seem to have a hard time of it; in particular most political leadership in Australia. Which can only mean one thing. THe conflation of all these terms is a #PoliticalChoice made by fully rational decisions. The question then remains: Why is it so?

I suspect that power and wealth has a lot to do with it along with egocentric, not to say narcicyst, tendencies.

[Edited] My past blog entry snippet is a crucial reminder for the fedizens: The idea that having different political choices equals being "divided" is a harmful label. True stability comes from acknowledging and navigating a healthy, functioning, diverse political landscape.

> But here is where the political spin becomes harmful: The politician does not focus on systemic failures; he blames the victims.

> Having different political choices is not being "divided"—it is the definition of a healthy, functioning democracy.

#Maharashtra Shiv Sena is a product of Congress’ CM V.P. Naik‘s anti-left politics in Mumbai... Which is why Congress is really no alternative to the BJP. India has a serious problem of #politicalchoice
