Holocaust admission AND Holocaust denial have now both been deemed antisemitic by the ethno-Fascist nation state that claims to represent all Jewish People.
How long until he says it’s antisemitic to vote against him
I’ve met Russian-speaking Israelis in TG, and even if he hasn’t, they already think that.
What is TG?
Telegram
If it is antisemitic to simply describe what the soldiers are doing, then the actions themselves are antisemitic.
Exactly this! Very succinctly put!
I wouldn’t call it antisemitic
However, it is deeply disturbing and unethical and Israel is desperately covering up by any means necessary
Well, maybe in the original meaning of the word. Most Palestinians do speak a Semitic language. The word usually now mean anti-jewish though.
These days it seems to mean anti what ever views Israel wants you to have
It has been so watered down it isn’t even funny
No, you know what’s anti-semitic? Defiling your ancestors by being a fucking genocidal Nazi.
It is actually impressive that the leader of Israel is the bad guy
When Israel was being founded in 1948 the UN sent a diplomat to help negotiate between the Palestinians and Israeli populations. He was a Swedish man who negotiated the release of over 30,000 prisoners from Nazi Germany in 1945. He was assassinated by Israeli Zionists.
Zionism is just weaponizing religion for the use by a government in my opinion. If that’s how Zionists acted when they were formed, why should we expect different from Zionists there now.The first pm of Israel was a genocidal terrorist. This is the status quo for states built on genocide.
Not at all. The genocide isn’t new, it’s built into the very fabric of modern Israel. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2001/may/31/londonreviewofbooks
I always find it weird when I remember that Netanyahu is just some dude from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Always been.
“I am jewish and did terrible things”
“Fuckin jew hater! He wants to kill all jews!”
That makes sense right?
This is what happens when they know what they are doing are war crimes.
Sounds about right sadly

Judaism is not what you’re saying.
Then it needs to step up and take responsibility for its own extremists.
I, as a random Jew, am not responsible for the actions of the Jewish terrorists in Israel, or any other Jew for that matter. Just like a random Muslim isn’t responsible for the actions of Hamas. It’s pretty insulting to suggest otherwise.
The greatest antisemitism there is, is trying to link the most depraved nation state of the XXI century (so far) and its actions, to all Jewish People, both by its implying that any actions commited by that nation state no matter how depraved and violent are How Jews Behave, and because such “representation by a nation state” would only be possible if “all Jews are the same”, both things which are extreme racist takes.
Nothing they are doing has any connection to Judaism. Other than bullshit lines Israeli officials say, that also align more with particular kind of Christianity, utilizing kinda augmented Jews’ role in it.
Try saying that to the typical brainwashed MSM propaganda consumer.
“Everything I dont like is antisemitism”
Or woke, or communism.
And Hamas.
Hamas is antisemitic and has publicly bragged about it
Evil brings evil
You may not be wrong, but that doesn’t make you right.
Sure, but Israel depends on hamas to justify their genocide.
They have funded them.Witb justification or not israel will always oppress palestinians because it believe all rhe land is jewish.
Israel didn’t fund hamas, qatar did. Unlike hamas, israel collect palestinian taxes in west bank and directly fund them with part of it
They have sent money to hamas, and encoraged qatar’s payments.
Again. Nothing enter palestine without israel approval. The palestinian autority get directly paid by israel. The palestinian autority is collaborating with israel and protect israel security while israel is funding illegal settlers , protect them when they attack, demolish palestinians homes. Torture, rape and kill palestinians.
Answer this question. If all armed group get destroyed do you think israel will stop occupation?
No, I don’t. But its much easier for them to bomb palestine with the threat of hamas.
This is false. Hamas since its founding has repeatedly stated they only fight against Israel because of resistance to settler colonialism and ethnic cleansing and not because of their religion.
You can hear the founder of Hamas say so here: https://youtu.be/FCxRZrBYLVg
they are like zionist version of oprah: you’re anti-semetic, you;re antisemitc, everbody is anti-semitic.
They’ve been riding that “if you __________ you’re antisemitic” horse really hard lately. If they keep over using it they’re gonna eventually run out of sympathy and ruin it for the people are rather more in need of it to fight actual antisemitic bullshit, including themselves.
They’ve got to remember there’s been a lot of 1488 types about who have just been waiting decades for their views to go mainstream again.
And this dipshit is going to make it happen.
The extreme-right population is divided on this.
A lot of oldschool fascists still hate ‘the jews’.
However plenty of them support them (the zionists), and all of their leadership organisations and parties do.
Now it’s ‘the muslims’ who are the new scapegoat.
And after all zionism and fascism were always good friends.English Defence Leage thug Tommy Robinson:

Netanyahu says it’s antisemitic
Learn a new trick, fuckface. This one doesn’t work anymore. People are going to start responding to accusations like this with “so what?” because the word has been watered down to such a ridiculous degree that it is no longer meaningful.
And that’s really dangerous because it provides cover for actual antisemitism against Jewish people.

Maybe don’t commit hate crimes?
Ask yourself, really what the fuck do hate crimes and vocabulary have to do with each other? I see your point, it’s just not really a point.
Tbh, it used to be justified, and in some circumstances it still is justified.
Jews used to be the biggest “live-in” minority in Europe. So, a minority that lives in the same country and doesn’t have a separate homeland. Kinda similar to black people in the USA. Contrary to regular migration, groups like that can’t return home and they can’t just assimilate.
If you look at regular migration, if someone’s family has lived in the country for 4 generations, they aren’t foreigners any more. Someone might say they have a Polish grandma, or they might say they are of Italian ancestry, but they aren’t Polish or Italian themselves any more.
Jews, especially before WW2, couldn’t do that. They were a discriminated against minority that was kept separate of the rest of society. A bit like black people in the USA after slavery was abolished.
So racism against them was a whole other order than the regular racism/xenophobia faced by other immigrants.
WW2 showed how bad that special kind of racism turned out to be, but WW2 wasn’t an isolated event in time or location. Anti-Semitism had been rampant for centuries if not millennia before that, and it wasn’t just localized to Germany. Just read up on e.g. Henry Ford, just to pick a random name from the bucket.
That said, things have shifted after WW2. Specifically antisemitic laws are pretty much gone in the western world, religion in general is not nearly as critically important as it was and there are now more than enough people of Jewish descent in the western world who don’t identify as Jews or who aren’t noticeable as Jews. And for a large part, society has accepted a special “protection” status for Jews to prevent a second Holocaust.
In consequence, the hate against Jews has mostly shifted into hate against Muslims, and many far-right/right-extremist people are now arguing that they can’t be Nazis because they now don’t hate Jews but instead hate Muslims. As if the problem with the Nazis wasn’t genocide and suppression of minorities, but instead genocide and suppression of Jews specifically.
But yeah, Nazis will be Nazis, and they will argue in bad faith to justify themselves. Nothing new there.
The person you are responding to characterized antisemitism as “supposedly committing racist actions” which is an ignorant and hateful thing. You are arguing whether or not the existence of a word “still is justified”. Words don’t need to be justified or not; they go in or out of favor based on utility.
As if the problem with the Nazis wasn’t genocide and suppression of minorities, but instead genocide and suppression of Jews specifically.
This holocaust denialism. One of the major and specific problems with the nazis was their attitude regarding jews. They didn’t have a problem with “minorities”. They used long standing conspiratorial intolerance to consolidate power into the hands of their minority.
One of the reasons israel thinks it can keep riding the “everything is antisemetic” horse is because of how comfortable people clearly are with actual anti semitism.
This holocaust denialism. One of the major and specific problems with the nazis was their attitude regarding jews. They didn’t have a problem with “minorities”. They used long standing conspiratorial intolerance to consolidate power into the hands of their minority.
I think you missed my point. For one, Nazis didn’t only want to exterminate Jews. Roma, Sinti, homosexuals, communists and disabled people (just to name a few other groups) were also on the chopping block.
But my main point here was that if the holocaust wasn’t about killing Jews but instead about exterminating the French, it would have been just as horrible and Nazis would have been just as horrible.
You are arguing whether or not the existence of a word “still is justified”. Words don’t need to be justified or not; they go in or out of favor based on utility.
No, I’m not arguing about the justification of the existence of the word, but of the applicability of the concept. Slavery is still a word and we still all know the word, no question about that, but at least in Europe, legalized slavery isn’t really a concept we need to put a lot of political effort into, because it doesn’t exist any more.
The concept is not applicable to today. We don’t need to have laws governing how slaves are treated, how the process of freeing slaves go, how former slaves are treated in society. We don’t even need to have discussions about that topic, because there’s no legalized slavery any more.
And in the same vein I think it’s justified to think about whether Jews really still need this protected status over e.g. Muslims or refugees. At least over here, it’s not so rare that e.g. refugee homes are set on fire by right-wing extremists. All sorts of Jewish institutions in my city have a permanent police guard stationed outside of them to protect them from potential attacks, even though they haven’t really happened in decades, while mosques or refugee homes usually don’t have that.
A similar thing is happening on a grander scale with Israel and its neighbours. They’ve been squashing Palestine under their heels for decades, but in false anti-antisemitism the governments of countries like Germany have been agreeing with everything Israel’s government does, because Jews are the better minority and Muslims are sub-human, or something like that.
So my point is not “does the word antisemitism has a place in the dictionary”, but instead “do Jews need this higher protection status over everyone else, or is there maybe another group that could need protection as well/more?”
Slavery is still a word and we still all know the word, no question about that, but at least in Europe, legalized slavery isn’t really a concept we need to put a lot of political effort into, because it doesn’t exist any more.
We don’t need to have laws governing how slaves are treated, how the process of freeing slaves go, how former slaves are treated in society. We don’t even need to have discussions about that topic, because there’s no legalized slavery any more.
I guess you have never heard of the UK’s 2015 Modern Slavery Act (“An Act to make provision about slavery, servitude and forced or compulsory labour and about human trafficking, including provision for the protection of victims; to make provision for an Independent Anti-slavery Commissioner; and for connected purposes”).
If you web search for any organization or company that’s active in the UK, you will find they have a bunch of disclosures and policies relating to slavery. Here are some randoms ones to save your fingers from working too hard: the NHS, Apple, Levi’s
There is movement towards EU-wide anti-slavery legislation.
And in the same vein I think it’s justified to think about whether Jews really still need this protected status over e.g. Muslims or refugees.

Presumably you have spent
zeromoments looking into the validity of the claim about no attack in decades, just like the one about slavery being a non-issue. I proceed on the premise that you are ignorant and incorrect.“Anti semitism” describes a unique and specific form of bigotry which is deeply entrenched in Europe and elsewhere which is influenced by European culture. It’s different than anti-black racism, orientalism, or islamiphobia to name a few. They all “deserve” their own words to describe the nuances.
Obviously you should do something about people’s houses being set on fire. Jews are are certainly not the primary barrier. I bet if you were to look at people who are in positions to actually do anything, you’ll find most of them are Christians. And do you think those cops who are paid to stand around all day as street furniture would really change anything for the better if they were re-deployed? They’d probably assist the arsonists.
Israel is a criminal enterprise from top to bottom. It has many advocates, the most effective and powerful of whom are not jewish, who conduct themselves in heinous fashion. Israel was created after WW2 by europeans who were semi-regretful about the holocaust, but were happy to not have a bunch of poor jewish refugees returning home. And by Europeans who didn’t regard the arab or muslim inhabitants of Palestine as human beings. Europe and the US have been in active support and benefiting from Israel’s crimes for decades.
We need to be able to use our brains to get through the swamp of propaganda without falling back on old bigotries. Blaming jews for structural problems is one of the core tenants of nazisim. I don’t know if you are a nazi or you’ve just picked up a bit of it through culture, or something in between.
I think you might be falling into reflexive attack patterns instead of actually trying to understand what I am saying.
What I am saying is that all minorities should have the necessary protections, and that Jews are used for “non-Nazi-washing” by a lot of the right-wing speakers.
It’s a common argument to claim that one isn’t a Nazi because he’s for the Israelis mass-killing Muslims in Palestine.
I don’t know if you are a nazi or you’ve just picked up a bit of it through culture, or something in between.
Yep. Sadly only a reflexive attack pattern instead of actual trying to understand what was said.
I have always voted for left parties. I am for human rights for everyone. I am for rights for all minorities including Muslims and Jews. I am pro immigration. I am for trans/LGBTQ+ rights and for abortion rights. I am against genocides being committed regardless of who is committing them. According to you I am a Nazi, totally fits the bill, correct?
the existence of a specific term is due to pervasive and long standing existence of antisemitism in Europe.
I understand the literal reason, I just don’t think it’s a particularly good one.

a special word for being prejudiced against the Roma People
According to wikipedia you have several choices: “antigypsyism, anti-Romanyism, antiziganism, ziganophobia, or Romaphobia”.
Furthermore there are terms “porajmos (also porrajmos or pharrajimos—literally, “devouring” or “destruction” in some dialects of the Romani language)… Balkan Romani activists prefer to use the term samudaripen (“mass killing”)” to describe the holocaust on Romani people.
It’s difficult to over emphasize how willfully ignorant the above commenter is. They don’t care about jews or roma. This is an example of real anti semitism, which continues to pervade, and is the reason why Israel and its oligarchs can get away with mislabeling legitimate activity as such. Because everyone knows there are people like this running around who are seeking to ride the wave of empathy for the palestinians (who they also don’t care about) to stir up anti-jew attitudes.

It’s all they have to hide behind.
Wow, the “that’s antisemitic” saying really is an all encompassing get out of jail free card.
I feel so bad for any Jewish people who don’t support this shit. There’s gonna be multiple generations of actual antisemitism spawned by Israel’s actions and the fact that the American deep state is obsessed with supporting them.
And will Likud have cried wolf enough that people start to disregard antisemitism entirely?
It’s a masterkey unlocking all doors now
Someone needs to ask Netanyahu what he thinks antisemitic means
That’s the most antisemitic thing I’ve ever heard
hes like the white people that think they are less racist than POC, or they accusing other people of being more racist than they are.
^ That’s antisemitic!
Hey! That’s antisemitic!
if he was forced to define it, it would probably be something like “anything or anyone that disagrees with Bibi being in power forever”.
Every day that word gets cheapened to the detriment of Jewish people everywhere.
Hey, Israel is so super ethical. They one try on women’s lingerie because it keeps them from getting shot. They only starve children because those children will become terrorist. They only shoot people seeking aid or food because they’re seeking aid or food. What would you do if someone wanted water? Not shoot them? Are you insane?!
This comment is sarcasm. Fuck Israel and the IDF.
IDF just checking out the stats msfw
I really wish genociders would stop calling criticism of genocide “antisemitism”. it just nullifies the impact of the word. also as I have said many times before, Palestinians are semites
He’s such a shit stain towards Jews. He’s devaluing the word which is dangerous given he’s already done so much to make Jewish people unsafe around the world
The rise of anti-Semitism is for the most part due to his actions post October 6th.
Fuck him. My kids did not fear their half-Jewish heritage. Now they do. What is he doing for Jewish people again?
It’s just a common religious tactic. When they do bad things, they get angry at anyone who tried to call them out on it. Even if it’s their own people, and they aren’t doing it on purpose. Is the hate being supported by their religion? Yes? Then it’s religious hate, and needs to be stopped.
Does it matter if it’s one religion? Nope, they all do this shit. Radical christians, radical hindu, radical buddhists, etc… Call them out on their bullshit and hate, and you’re the bigot. Well, fuck religion and the hate they all spew.
Well, fuck religion and the hate they all spew.
It’s not really the religion though, basically all religions come with a set of believes in what is wrong and right and the hate-spewing war criminals will say it has to do with their religion, but they do not follow the believes set out by their religion. They are only using religion as a tool to gain power over the people that do follow the believes of that religion.
“It’s not really the religion…”
Explains how it is, in fact, religion.
Imperialism, supermasism and ressource controls.
Perhaps learn to read.
It’s people that are the problem. People with their shitty attitudes.
Religion is not the problem.
Potato potato.
It’s really not.
I disagree.
I respect that. It saddens me though.
You’re right, of course. The real problem, as you pointed out, is religious states.
See also: the way the US has become increasingly brazen about its atrocities as the Evangelicals have sunk their tentacles deeper and deeper into our political system.
On the other hand, there have been Jewish states before modern Israel, and it always ended in tears. Maybe believing that you’re God’s chosen people inevitably causes you to act with an arrogance and belief in your own invincibilty that eventually causes your country to be destroyed. If you believe God literally wants you to have a piece of dirt, why practice good diplomacy and have good relations with your neighbors? Your only concern is keeping God happy. In the Old Testament, the Israelites suffered invasion only when they somehow let God down. With that as your cultural foundation, what does that do to your nation’s foreign policy?
Part of me really is starting to wonder if giving folks who think they’re God’s special chosen people was a terrible mistake.
what theocracies of any religion haven’t “ended in tears”?
Part of me really is starting to wonder if giving folks who think they’re God’s special chosen people was a terrible mistake.
I think you missed a word or two there.
I’d suggest the mistake was giving people a country which was already occupied by other people. Whatever myth gets used to justify it, be it god’s chosen people or manifest destiny.
I’m not an expert in their religion but I doubt their religion says that committing genocide and all kinds of war crime atrocities is a good thing.
They’re Zionists, this is actually a core part of the end goals outlined in every Abrahamic religion, they are literally hoping to destroy all the non children of god and take over the world. We’re all just Canaanites to them if we’re not on their team.
I believe that in Judaism there is some traditions of interpretation which can justify the current situation. But it isn’t a religion based on obedience as much as discussion so it isn’t a matter of what is “said” as much as what is understood.
However much more relevant is the powerful and mainstream protestant Christian prophesies where the Rapture can be hastened by people taking certain steps, including having a jewish state in israel. (The jews, like most other people, will ultimately get horrifically exterminated during the Rapture, which is considered desirable to adherents.) Impatience for this Rapture is one of the reasons people and governments support Israel. American Christian groups provide way more funding and material support for Israel than jewish groups do.
Radical Buddhists
Now, I am not going to disagree here because I don’t know a lot about it, but the only radical Buddhist I ever heard about was a dude who set himself on fire to protest the Vietnamese government oppressing Buddhists in the 60s and monks in China fighting against tyranical rulers that would have exterminated them. Have any radical Buddhists ever hurt others for not believing in their system of faith?
Look into the ongoing Rohingya genocide.
This kind of shit is a carbon copy of how the Nazis used claims of people being “against the Aryan race” to deflect criticism of the actions of the Nazis.
I think this is religion being weaponized to support the extreme depravity of an ethno-Fascist ideology, rather than an inherent drive in that religion.
In other words, the problem with Religions is not them having an inherent tendency for this kind of thing, is that they are extremely easy to capture and use to support even the most depraved behaviours, being capable of excusing actions well beyond what most other prepackaged belief systems are able to successfully excuse.
In summary, I don’t think Religion is a driver of this kind of shit, I think it’s an enabler.
