    This astrology grifter is phony AF.

    Ad hominem. Doesn’t invalidate the words above.

    Notice the implied anti-semitism and missing zionism.

    I noticed no implied anti-semitism. I noticed explicit criticism of the Israeli government.

    Please don’t promote this crap just because it sounds “good”.

    True. Promote it to highlight the genocide that is currently occurring.

    Free Palestine.

    Agreed, but I suspect yours isn’t genuine.

      “She suddenly became political a few years ago by promoting the invasion of ukraine. Peak russian asset.”

      Is it an ad hominem when you include the rest which explains the claim made you excerpted?

        Yes. Any attacking of the messenger to deflect from the message is ad hominem.

        And trying to move the attention from Israeli genocide onto a tangential topic is called forum sliding.
