That is an antisemitic generalization. The government and military of a nation is only a subgroup of it´s society. How would you like to be held responsible for the actions of your government and military, even if you did not vote for them and don´t agree with what they are doing?

Ok, I’ll correct that to ‘Israel as a nation casually murders children on a regular basis’ to be more accurate then.

Sus af though that you claimed that a meme criticising Israel as a nation for killing kids was an attack against all jews

Well, that is at least a start. Now could we agree to switch “Israel as a nation” with “The right-extremist government of Israel, it´s military and the ultra-nationalist settler movement” please?

A nation includes all of it´s citizens, so that is a weird argument that seems to have only one goal, to be a killer argument against any critique of antisemitic propaganda against Israel.

How is generalizing all citizens of Israel -who as we know are mainly Jewish people- as casual child murderers not classic antisemitism? Please include in your consideration, that the narrative of child sacrifice and blood libel is one of the oldest antisemitic tropes there is and put the meme in a context with that fact.

Israel “as a nation” has been doing this since its inception in 1948. It has never been anything besides an ultra-nationalist settler movement. I suspect you either greatly lack historical context or are arguing in bad faith tbh.

No we can’t, fuck off. Israel is an apartheid state and Zionism is an European settler-colonial movement.

It’s cute how you’re staying safe in your mind palace and arguing about hypothetical settlers who don’t support what’s going on.

You know what your hypothetical virtuous perpetrators of a genocide can do if they actually feel that way? Fucking leave. They can fucking leave and go back where they came from and give back the homes they stole.

Excuse me? What are you even talking about? Every single time I mentioned settlers in this thread, I did so only to blame them for the situation and called them ultra-nationalists, who are one of the groups who should be criticized alongside the government and the military. So please stop projecting so wildly and instead go with what i actually wrote, otherwise there is no basis for a discussion, thank you.

Calling out antisemitic propaganda when I see it does neither equal taking sides in the conflict nor does it equal supporting illegal settlements of racist neo-nazi expansionist assholes who murder Palestinian olive farmers.

You should really stop projecting so much, communication becomes impossible like this.

This dumb motherfucker keeps using the word ‘projecting’ whenever someone calls them on imagining what Jewish Israelis think

Do you think they’re smart enough to recognize the irony of that before it’s explicitly spelled out to them? I say no. They’re dumb as shit. Like most fascists.

Fucking idiot here thinks the west bank is the first time Zionists did an ethnic cleansing
