Does this accurately explain your position? Why or why not?

Someone on Twitter tried to explain the intersection of Pro-Russia/Pro-Ukraine sentiment and Pro-Israel/Pro-Palestine sentiment [thusly:](https://twitter.com/luiswenus/status/1711910413233721660#m)

>I just realized the russia-ukraine horseshoe is just the inverse of the palestine-isreal horseshoe politically

>1. you have the russia-palestine supporters on the extreme left, they are soviet sympathizers and love guerilla-style resistance

>2. then you've got the ukraine-palestine camp which is your classic liberal left, they mostly care about oppression and the optics around it

>3. then you have the ukraine-israel camp, they are centrists and mostly care about democracy and western civilisation triumphing

>4. then there's the russia-israel camp, this is the new right movement and most of the trumpists

>5. at the end you have the russia-palestine camp, they hate western civilization because of wokeness or whatever, and they dislike jews so by process of elimination palestine is left

>always fun to analyze when political camps start overlapping

Does any of this seem inaccurate to you?

How does his explanation of *your* position align with how you would explain your position?

------------

[Edit]

For clarity, I'll add another category:

6\. Neither pro-Israel nor pro-Palestine, therefore doesn't fit into any of the above categories
