Picking up on the issue you mention of the racially conscious far Right who are purveryors of what has been termed “Zionist anti-Semitism”, I wrote this piece in 2018.

If I was able to express and articulate my thoughts a fraction of what you do, I would be extremely happy.<br /><br />The essay answers some lingering questions I had throughout Trumps Presidency. Which is, Why Zionist and Self confessed white western racist find a political home in Trunp's Republican party? Trump has a son-in-law who is Jew, and Trump himself is pro-Zionist, white racist don't like Jews. We know these two groups detest each other. This essay does answer some of those questions. Perhaps have a perceived common enemy.RenFlowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07660968677316136086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021716376952212791.post-85990974420000036262020-07-19T02:06:36.525+01:002020-07-19T02:06:36.525+01:00lots of imformation and you didnt omit the studies...lots of imformation and you didnt omit the studies of mcdonald and duke which have valid points. "White" is something i never knew of until i came in contacts with both american fair skinned peoples and black americans. Neither consider me white while the strongest meaning in me was cultural which neither side seems to take into consideration which makes the problem what it in the end is. i will read this again and maybe again slowly.

You have very accurately described what I have long seen as the inherent trap of "Identity Politics". The new left needs to re-frame the debate in a way that emphasizes our collective, universal human values while respecting ethnic, cultural and religious differences. This is not an easy task to be sure, but we have a unique opportunity as this era of financial capitalism implodes.
