This is absolutely bonkers. As a Minnesota resident I'm shocked by how radically left this state has become. I definately do not like it.
Remember that the Spanish civil war occupies an EXTREMELY important position in the minds of the radical left. In their minds, Hamas is like the Spanish Republicans fighting the Nazis. In reality, this is a very forced interpretation that could only come from a person who lives on the other side of the planet. I believe this is the core of the reason is why the left is turning on Israel.
For a long time, both Democrats and Republicans supported Israel, and for good reason. We've always been comfortable selling arms to them because the Israeli military has a reputation for professionalism and a good track record. As a side-effect of this, leftists have come to equate Israel with "The Man."
Here's a comparison that is begging to be made: Israel is Derek Chauvin. Hamas is George Floyd.
