Palestine

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

I go with supersolidsnake and say that the suits from the CIA/State Dept/etc. gave them a manilla envelope of instructions, I would be surprised if a Paramount employee had any meaningful input on this clear propaganda piece.

We are far past the point of "cold calculating pragmatic indifferent-to-all-but-green-line-go-up" capitalism", it is just plain naked rabidly irrational 1984 fascism with TikTok Characteristics at this point.

I hate to say it but there is another option (personally I see it as a bit of both); Zionist Jews do have some power in America particularly within media/entertainment, being labelled by a powerful peer Zionist as an "antisemite" could be more damaging to one's career than pissing off a couple thousand proles. Proles can't blacklist you. No substantial chunk of the common population is going to start and keep a boycott of Paramount.

I don't want to lend to fascist conspiracy, I think the vast majority of the USian ruling class are WASPs, but I do think Zionist Jews (who have nothing in common with commoner Jews) have a noteworthy bloc that cannot be dismissed with the influence it wields in interfactional ruling class politics, as do Catholics, atheists, and New Agey Silicon Valley technocult psychos.
