No, but I think the ruling class uses religion as a way to divide the working class and to shield their bigotry behind respectability.

They go on birthright during high school, right? Before political and moral compasses are particularly developed/deviate from parents? I could see a free(?) trip to Israel to be pretty appealing to a largely apolitical teenager who later goes on to develop a more detailed worldview Also I guess I know nothing about birthright so all of my assumptions (which I don’t feel like looking up) might be completely off base in which case idk I guess this is a worthless comment but really aren’t most of them?

My wife and I are Jewish and neither of us elected to go on birthright.

Oh yeah, I'm sure they needed a lot of encouragement. If there's two things 18-26 need prompting to do it's drinking and loving. I don't doubt the government wanting it to take place but that's also gotta be PR strategy that basically runs itself.

it is extremely weird and creepy to me to call your vacation to a foreign settler colony a "birthright" but then i guess they're selecting for the kind of person that would actually want to be a settler in an ethnostate

Over my life I've had at least four people explain to me that okay Israel sucks but they went on birthright and saw that everyone over there is just plain ordinary folks so my opinion about how it's a horrible country that shouldn't exist is invalid Yeah, dude, every country has plain ordinary folks. Everyone the world over wears jeans and t shirts and eats pizza and gets married

if you were really on the ukrainian side, why not just lean into this language? "yes, we have escalated the war and we will continue to escalate it until our inevitable victory" or something

lol that dropping bombs on a military airfield is an "escalation". you don't have to go all out on David vs Goliath narratives or whatever to think that this is a pretty dumb statement on its own for two countries at mobilized total war. pulling off a hail mary doesn't demonstrate some new willingness, as if before they were stoically turning the other cheek or something.
