both african-americans and american jews are +80% democratic voters and traditional allies in the fight for civil rights and economic justice, which is why the right spends so much time and millions of dollars promoting the small minority of jewish writers who are racist conservatives.

(And why republicans like the small number of right wing black people who are almost invariably antisemites)

Things are very different in western Europe, and we can't blame that on a 'small minority of writers'. Perhaps Americans don't understand the position of Europe's Jewish minorities on the political spectrum.

The last fifty-sixty years of US history have been a stellar exercise in devising ways to pry apart traditional allies in the common fight.

It's been pretty unsuccessful overall tbh! Both jews and blacks in America still are overwhelmingly left-leaning groups and almost every elected jew or black in the USA is a Democrat (black elected Republicans get TONS of press which obscures how vanishingly rare they are). But that's why they do it

And the media props up Black conservatives like John McWhorter, Coleman Hughes, Thomas Chatterton Williams. Petty sure Bari Weiss has published all three at some point, all for the same general purpose.

And why every Black conservative either has a TV gig or is in the Supreme Court

There are also more Christian Zionists in America than there are Jews in total which is why they won’t STFU about Israel and dual loyalty bullshit.
