You’re failing spectacularly.

Lefty here. Fuck Israel. Judaism is cool though. Praise YHWH. Looking forward to Passover with my friends this year. Fuck the modern state of Israel.

It’s the worst thing you can say. And the old man said it

It'd probably be easier if there wasn't a radical right wing government there.

Why is it so fucking hard for American Idiots to understand that the Jewish people =/= Israel and its government.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

because the pro-israeli lobby has spent millions, billions even, on trying to corrupt the discourse so that any criticism of israel is inherently linked to antisemitism, and tens of millions of people, if not more, have bought into that social engineering and believe deeply that criticizing israel is literally worse than anything hitler did.

I mean how is it much different than “I hate Trump and Elon” but I don’t hate Americans .. (well I am an American but still).

I still hate far-right maga and ZioNAZIs

Marketing conflates the two, not much we can do.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Israel's 1948 Declaration of Independence states the nation was founded on the "national and historic right of the Jewish people"

Israel's 2018 Basic Law constitutionally enshrined the state as the "nation-state of the Jewish people," granting exclusive national self-determination to Jews, prioritizing Jewish settlement as a "national value", designating Hebrew as the sole official language (with Arabic demoted to "special status"), affirming Jerusalem as the capital, and guaranteeing Jewish immigration rights.

This may be why people conflate the two. Israel has defined itself as Jewish state.

As Mo Amer says, it's a marketing issue.

It’s not marketing. It’s a targeted campaign to intertwine the two… oh wait yeah it’s marketing 🤣

[–] [email protected] 23 points 6 days ago

It’s not. That type of thinking just works with the narrative, whether it’s conflating “Israel” and “Jews,” or “Men” and “rapists,” or “Blacks” and criminals, or Muslims and terrorists. The point is to make it impossible to argue with anything said

Like I've said before, I've never been more disgusted with Zionists and Israel. The fact that his goofy ass is sucking off Netanyahu in the background just makes me pissed off like nothing else. I've literally only been using bluesky to ask him to Resign

your job is to stfu and gtfo

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago

Then you have failed. Quit trying to make it happen, we aren't going to support a genocidal regime.

It's so cute when liberals think that they're leftists.

"I am bought and paid for by the Israeli government"

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Literally admitting loyalty to a foreign government.

and that he's disregarding his constituents concerns while admittedly attempting to social-engineer acceptance for it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

But first, a word from my sponsor today, the IDF.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

He's also completely failing at this task. His job is to keep neoliberals (e.g. the average corporate brainwashed Democrat) pro-Israel.
