    Three reports to the effect of hate speech so far.

    Some people can’t distinguish a people from a state. A genocidal apartheid settler-colonial state, at that.

    Quite a few downvotes from Germans, even more than I expected. A lot of Germans are confidently incorrect about Zionism, Zionists, and the settler-colonial state of Israel.

      Losurdo has a few good chapters specifically about a lot of the modern german ideological support for zionism in his book War and Revolution.

      It’s a really complicated subject, dealing with the historical guilt from the judeocide, and supporting Israel being an easy and surface-level way to alleviate that guilt.

        supporting Israel being an easy and surface-level way to alleviate that guilt.

        No doubt reinforced by enormous amounts of hasbara.

    the fsck is this

    why

    even if you refer to government policies (the ones in israel do indeed suck (source: an israeli friend)) this could be very easily interpreted as racism and antisemitism and a “jewz sux” by anyone

    ill assume its a critique to the government and not nazi propaganda but seriously it really looks like nazi stuff

    please refrain from posting this kinda memes thank u very much for reading (if you didnt read then fsck off and do it)

    edit: judging by your previous posts, its safe to assume that youre just criticizing the fact israel is a literal apartheid and not insulting judaism, but there can still be confusion, so better to clarify more next time please

    (already said my source on the government stuff btw)

      As an Israeli who is losing his mind over what is happening and is learning about the less positive side of Zionism, I feel the same. In essence, we have a battle between two extreme groups, one more civil and normal-looking in terms of outer appearance than the other.

      I haven’t the slightest idea of what you’re trying to say.
