    Oh yeah, and he’s Jewish too isn’t he, so he’ll get in on redeveloping it.

    Nothing suspicious to see here folks

          Anti-semitism is when you dislike someone because they are Jewish, not when you dislike someone because they want to ethnically cleanse Palestine and create vALuaBlE WAterFrONt PrOPerTiEs on the stolen land, especially when that person literally runs a real estate development company and could possibly have access to that specific market (because he’s Jewish and that’s important to Israel).

          Saying that a Jewish person is Jewish is not anti-semitism.

          Edit: Maybe you don’t know about how Kushner has served Israel in the past:

              Wait which part of what I said was racist?

              Or are you living in a fantasy world where the people who will reap the material rewards of the destruction and appropriation of land in Gaza are other than Jewish? There is plenty of racism in this situation but it’s not coming from those who are calling it out. Please educate yourself on Jewish settlements in the Occupied Territories of Palestine if you care about truth.

      Why would you say that and then share a 1 minute clip?

      Here’s the full interview. link

      It’s so much worse than just the bits everyone pulled. Including begging the question of why Gaza couldn’t build itself into a resort destination, why the refugees don’t want to leave the borders of Gaza, and a lovely gem where he says Isreal is doing the most anyone’s ever done to avoid civilian casualties while wondering why they don’t evacuate civilians.

        Thanks for the full link. I was on my phone and no one in the post or site page linked any video so I quickly searched youtube for anything short at least. It’s very clear by what he said that he doesn’t view palestinians as humans. His zionism is extremely repulsive

      Didn’t they give him a 99 year lease on a Manhattan building? I remember reading something about a $2 billion dollar value between nepo baby and the Saudis…

      Jared Kushner is a fucking slumlord and a losing one at that; I don’t think for two seconds anyone is expecting him to successfully “manage” anything but his in-laws. Which is what the cash is for, regardless of what they want to call it. If his father-in-law weren’t Donald Trump they wouldn’t even know his name.

    …" but from Israel’s perspective I would do my best to move the people out and then clean it up,” Kushner said. “But I don’t think that Israel has stated that they don’t want the people to move back there afterwards.”

    Masoud replied that there was “a lot to talk about there”.>

    Yea, no shit.

    “Hi, uh good morning, is this the place where I say my thoughts out loud and potentially put myself and my family in danger?”

    “Yes it is.”

    "Oh thanks. Well can you write ‘I can’t wait for all the Palestinians (including women and children) are shot or starved to death so we can bulldoze their homes and communities to build some luxury condos for my billionaire buddies.’ "

    “…naire buddies. All done sir, was their anything else?”

    “Not at the moment thank you madam.”

    What a moron. Unbelievable that he was anywhere near US foreign policy a few years ago when he can come out with clangers like this which piss off literally everyone.

      He doesn’t have principles, just as Trump doesn’t. With them it’s just whatever the most self-serving move is in the moment, every moment.

    Remember, Lex Fridman platformed Jared Kushner and Tucker Carlson in front of his millions of listeners for them to spew their right wing propaganda. Lex is a fucking hack, and a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

      He also platformed a Palestinian in a powerful interview. We don’t need to be so afraid of words. People can think for themselves.

        I’m not afraid of words. I am expressing my own displeasure with Lex Fridman by using words right now. If you don’t agree with my opinion then that is your prerogative, but what I said was factually accurate. You won’t find that same factual accuracy in either of those interviews, and that is the fucking problem.

          An interview isn’t meant to be factual like a news report. The whole point is to hear someone’s perspective. Friedman’s project is to expose his listeners to a broad spectrum of views. That’s an honorable goal.

    Dear Internet leftists: this is what you are voting for. Just like you voted to overturn Roe v Wade. If your actions lead to predictable outcomes, you assume that moral liability whether you want to or not.
