@JScoreForever I did not say the war in Europe was about Zelensky being Jewish. I said Putin has accused a Jewish president of being a Nazi while aligning himself with actual Nazis in Europe and fomenting anti-semitism in the United States—using the aid of an anti-semitic ally, Donald Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time to be scared but also angry and motivated and united. United in voting. United in our values—even in the face of disparate experiences. United in our love of America—even as we daily face its innumerable shortcomings. United against what we can only recognize as evil. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

It’s going to take all we have to save this country from everything being thrown at it. And I’d bet half this feed’s readers aren’t convinced we’re going to win. The current president speaks of “Armageddon” as the last one speaks of civil war, so yes—maybe it’s time to be scared. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

When I wrote about ATLANTA earlier this week—its simultaneous artfulness and genius and casual antisemitism—many people were like, what? Where did this come from? But I don’t think I’m the only person who thinks these fractures on the Left could end America in the next 48 months. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

As Trump and MAGA turn hard toward Christofascism, Trump supporter Kanye West declares war on “the Jews” and Vladimir Putin makes war on a neighbor led by a Jew under the guise of fighting Nazism. His closest ally in Europe? An actual Nazi: Viktor Orban. In America? Donald Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

I’m not particularly invested in the question of whether these sychronous events are coincidental by bad luck or design. All that matters is that unscrupulous men now seek to divide those who love freedom—the actual thing, not the mere slogan—at home and abroad and all at once. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

Putin is in the way. Trump is in the way. And if he has his way, Kanye will be in the way. Putin and Trump have done everything they can to fracture America so that it will be unable to defend itself. And now *Kanye* wants to pry open historical fractures between Blacks and Jews. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

To win in 2022 and then 2024, the Left will have to put aside every fracture of the last 50 years to accept the fact that we might only have one chance left to save America and Western-style democracy. Not because America is perfect or great but because it’s home and all we have. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

Here’s what I'm saying: the only way Putin wins is if Republicans win, because he only wins if NATO is dissolved. And Republicans only win in 2024 if they take the reins of power in 2022. And while the Right will vote in 2022—its will-to-power ensures it—the left may or may not. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

Russia aided GOP candidates by various means in 2016 and 2018 and 2020—and the MAGAs sure hope they’ll do so again in 2022 and 2024. America isn’t “on the verge” of a historic betrayal—we already caught the preview of it on January 6, 2021. That was just a preface to the future. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

Will the Left show up to vote? Unclear. There are TikTok dances to learn and Joe Biden isn’t *perfect*. Politics is icky and Bernie was “robbed”—et cetera. Meanwhile GOP senators are saying in cloakrooms (per major media) that they voted to aid Ukraine once but won’t do so again. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

The Left is fractured, possibly beyond repair. Jaded, tribal, unproductively angry, lost in esoterica as the Right—not just in America but overseas—is coalescing into powerful fascist blocs. The Christofascists will vote in America as they have in Italy, France, and Scandinavia. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

And then we lit upon it: the only way he wins is if he keeps the war in Europe going long enough for Republicans to take over Congress (2023) and then the White House (2025). Trump has already told allies he would withdraw from NATO, which would collapse the West in short order. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

Tonight I had a conversation with an old friend. We tried to brainstorm Putin’s conditions for victory, as we have thus far been unable to game out any scenario in which he can win—which sounds optimistic until you realize that if he *must* lose, he will take the world with him. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson

Attn: @jstheater, but also the whole American Left—of which I’m a part—which seems not to realize we’ve deconstructed ourselves out of coherence at the *very moment* the ancient far-right enemies of freedom have constructed themselves into an old hateful force threatening us all. — PolitiTweet.org

(PS) I realize this may have been just poorly worded. But it’s important that we say “retake Crimea” rather than the sloppy, inaccurate “seize Crimea from Russia.” — PolitiTweet.org
