Edit: I didn’t realize that the original meme was using an AI photo, so I replaced it with a real Seinfeld screenshot to comply with the “no AI slop” rule.

Original meme for context:

          A quick wikipedia read seems to indicate that is not quite true. It would be more accurate to say he tries to both-sides it and holds contradictory viewpoints. Not what I would call a hardcore zionist, but certainly divorced from reality. Though I suppose if you tend towards absolutism you’d call it that.

            I mean I hold contradictory viewpoints for fun sometimes. Also to respect my personal history as a trained economist. I have not looked into his though and since we’re talking about Israel and Palestine I have to assume his are either old (like mine were. I’ve done a lot of learning recently) or major bullshit (because, well that doesn’t really need explanation right I just like parenthetical asides give me this one) so I’m not going to jump on the fuck Jason Alexander train unless it’s a literal fuck Jason Alexander train without doing more research about the hottie

            I’m sorry, him calling the IDF moral?

            When asked about the IDF, Alexander stated that they were humane and noble, stating “some of the finest, most humane, most admirable, most noble-serving soldiers that I’ve ever seen” and that “there can never be any doubt that I am also an advocate for Israel”

            There’s nothing absolute in saying someone who says the above is a hardcore Zionist.

            If you want to dig deeper into the silly little nonprofits he supports, they’re the same bullshit veneer of advocating for a two state solution but not actually listening to Palestinian voices or pushing the needle in Israel in the slightest.

            He’s the average liberal Zionist who thinks apartheid is fine and that it can be reformed - this has been the biggest cover for the worst of Zionism.

            And if you don’t think of any level of Zionism (an ethno supremacist, colonial, and genocidal ideology) as hardcore, then that’s on you.

      Episode idea:

      George gets accidentally charged for the deluxe car wash instead of the standard one and spends the rest of the episode trying to sneak in a free deluxe to make up for it, but gets charged every time. Elaine is dragged into his shenanigans, but keeps backstabbing him to make good with the hot car wash attendant.

      Jerry “falls in love” with a customer at said car wash, but doesn’t get her name, and only has her ticket stub mentioning her car model to find her again.

      Kramer enlists Newman to create their own car wash service, directly across the street.

        Back when I was still on Instagram there was an account that would post fake Seinfeld plots like this, it was one of my favourite accounts on there.

    Be careful with some drive thru car washes as the soap can be pretty acidic and cause your clear coat to go bad quicker

      That’s why I use delux on the work car and use the company credit card so the problem becomes the companies problem not mine.
