So I've talked about it on here before but I used to be a shitty antisemite and I changed my ways. But my fucking god, do zionist jews make themselves and by extension Judaism look like total ass. (hexbear.net)

I know your average zionist doesn't speak for the religion but it feels like they've been working overtime to equate their political ideology and national project to their religion. It's a mental mindfuck that makes me question myself if I'M the one being an antisemite when I call out the IDF for butchering children or settlers for running pogroms on Palestinians. Fucking pissrael and it's hasbara propaganda has now moved public opinion so much that taking a stance against bombing hospitals is akin to being a bigot.

To dehumanize others means to dehumanize yourself first: for Jews to destroy Palestinian, Lebanese, Syrian etc culture, requires firstly that Jews destroy their own culture.

This seriously reminds me of a couple of Justin Scott’s TikTok/video essays about white supremacy, racism and the role of white people in deconstructing racism. I’ll find the videos later but his thesis is that at its core racism is full of unprocessed grief. The destruction of working class European cultures by capitalism and imperialism allowed for the much more widespread destruction of the rest of the world.
