I feel with you, being Anti-Zionist in the U.S. gotta suck even more.
One thing that has goven me hope is how more people than one might think are ready to change their views once they looked at the oppression and the resulting suffering. They do not need to instantly recognize it as a genocide and still will lose faith in Zionism. I showed my Zionist mom “No Other Land” and she was shocked. I was shocked she watched until the end but oh so proud.
On the off chance of losing some, i am now convinced that i can make more people look at the horrors and help them to form a more educated opinion, that hopefully leads to action.
Heads up mate, not all is lost and you yourself are the evidence that people in the U.S. can be on the left. We can’t let ourselves be beaten down be the mainstream-narrative that is designed to uphold the status quo. These forces are also present right here in the internet so we will have to take it to the streets eventually.
I can’t help where I’m from, but I can control where I end up at least. Took my family back to the UK a few years ago, since we’ve only been Americans for a generation or so. Reason being, I don’t have much hope that the US can improve materially without a full-on regime change - I think obviously the American system contained the seeds of its own destruction from the outset, but the final straw (pardon the mixed metaphor) was Citizens United, which ended up being basically golden handcuffs for all elected officials. Only they can reverse it, and they won’t because it’s their money. It would take some eucatastrophe to undo all that, so I’ll just have to take to the streets elsewhere when the time comes.

No war but class war, brethren
