They're burning people alive.
They're not letting food or medical supplies in. They're not letting people out. They've shut down and bombed hospitals and schools.
They're burning people alive.
#Israel#zionism#zionist occupation#all you fuckers who support this - dont you fucking dare preach anything about love your neighbor#and do unto others what you'd have them do unto you#the israeli military - government - and every single fucker who supports them and their agenda is vile and evil#and I've completely divorced this israeli government and military from the religion of Judaism in my head and heart#so don't come at me with claims of this being antisemitic bc that ain't it#this has all been inhuman evil fucking behavior#and saying bullshit like <they started it first> is stupid as hell#and if you still believe that the goal is to defeat hamas and bring the hostages home you're fucking stupid

love seeing goyische Takes™ about israel that conveniently and unsubtly ignore that the modern state of israel was founded in the wake of the holocaust
like, was european (and later american) states’ support of zionism an explicitly colonial project? yes. did european jews in the wake of the holocaust (and frankly before it) have a VERY GOOD REASON to want to have a nation-state controlled by jews? also yes. does that excuse the colonial way in which the nation of israel was founded and its national status enforced? no. is israel the only state involved and the only government at fault? also no.
#mine#ce#israel/palestine for blacklist#EVERY DAY i am forced to see Takes.#like. the british empire’s defeat of the ottoman empire in palestine and the existence of Mandatory Palestine are#SO FUCKING IMPORTANT to the context of how israel got The Way It Is. so is the history of antisemitism in europe & in n africa & west asia#but you don’t get to pick and choose what parts of history you acknowledge either. jews did imperial-backed colonialism before the holocaus#AND then the fucking holocaust happened and that had a massive influence on the international viability of the zionist project.#jews everywhere faced violent antisemitism AND jews in palestine faced justified backlash to their settlement of occupied land.#it’s more complex than ‘X group was wrong abt everything and Y one was right’. nuance nuance nuance.#if you’re gonna cite history do it right. fucking. please.

Just received the most conspiracy-theory laden EU election leaflet I've ever seen in the post today.
Genuine 'the global elite are orchestrating war and famine to kill 90% of the world's population, climate change is a hoax', plus some transphobia thrown in to round things out.
And of course it ended with the guy's bank details and a plea for money.
#it felt genuinely unhinged#eu elections#remember to vote#if nothing else we need to defeat guys like this with the largest percentage possible#transphobia#antisemitism

#personally I'm beginning to think that people took this issue as an opportunity to just#make noise#because Hamas is a terrorist organization#and obviously not Palestine#so why are we not discussing for after Hamas is defeated how to help the Palestinians merge with Israel into a new better country for all#instead of being antisemitic and islamphobic#sky tag vents

picked up attack on titan again after stopping for no reason (why do I always just randomly stop watching things even when I’m enjoying them) and I am really liking season 4 so far. the writing feels as good as it ever has, even if it’s a very different feel to the earlier seasons - which it needs to be, given how much we’ve learned about the world and how much the characters have changed
i think there’s a really interesting conversation to be had about the conflicting interpretations of this series, especially with regards to whether it is facist/antifacist and the complexities of using persecution against fantasy races as an allegory for real-life prejudice. I can definitely understand where the view that AOT is antisemitic comes from, and to some extent I agree with it, but I think the discussion needs nuance. the portrayal of the eldians has a lot of layers and grey areas.
i’ve never come across a series where people interpret the themes in such polarising ways, and that’s very interesting to me. AOT is problematic and should be watched with a critical eye, but it still does some really interesting, valuable things in its narrative - especially with regards to how it subverts its own premise by turning the ‘kill the mindless, invading monsters!’ trope on its head. I’m going to wait until i’m caught up on it before i post any thorough analysis here, but I’ve been thinking about it a lot already
#it's definitely a series where you aren't supposed to think ANY of the characters are good people#and I think some people struggle to grasp that#attack on titan#i think the antisemitism in attack on titan is 100% worth unpacking but I think the claims that it's facist have less weight#I think the earlier seasons do portray the military as ultimately good and necessary but that changes as it goes on#the show is blatantly portraying the cycle of violence and war as a terrible thing#while showing how difficult it is to maintain peace. especially if that peace relies on bowing to oppression#but honestly#the fact that this show goes from 'kill all the titans! kill the mindless dangerous monsters that threaten our home!'#and it gets you totally on board with that premise#only to completely pull the rug out from under you#and make you realise that titans are victims and that eren is *exactly the same* as the creatures he wanted to destroy#idk that feels vitally important to me#there is so much media about alien invaders and faceless monsters that the good guys need to mow down#but this series subverts that and you realise that the picture is so much more complex#there is no easy evil to be defeated. there is no easy fix#and I like that a lot

I'm sorry for your friend's loss. May their memories be blessings.
If your reaction to a random Jewish couple dying is celebration that you claim is justified because they might have been supporters of their right to self-determine in their indigenous homeland, you have a problem. If your reaction to a random Jewish couple dying is to bring up a conflict across the world that they weren't fighting in, you have a problem.
just in case you're wondering how bad antisemitism is online by now: my friend had to take down the memorial post she made on IG for her dad and stepmum (who died less than a week ago) bc people were spamming it with "free palestine" and "two less zionists is a good thing" comments
#oh antisemitism the only hatred where you can say that you hate the group you're targeting#and people will persist in insisting to the hurt people you hate that you don't hate them#that you're misunderstanding them when they say they hate you and celebrate the deaths of your people#antisemitism wasn't defeated after the shoah#hiding antisemitism under a thin mask of social-justice political purity still makes you an antisemite#and it's stunning how you yell at Jews for defining antisemitism with a definition that includes your antisemitism then turn around and say#that minority groups get to define their oppression.

I'm now reading a topic about post-war Poland, jeez, Hitler brainwashed Poles quite well and it's terrifying (But there were still Poles who defended Jews, even though they ended up getting beaten, so you can guess that they were average with this shit)
Here I can say that Poles are crazy, even though they were after the war and brainwashed (Because fascism is a beast that destroys you), but earlier I mentioned what happened during the war, not after the war (Because Zionists lie about it, which makes me it's annoying, accusing the victims of the Nazis of complicity and saying that they saved too few people is disgusting)
Unfortunately, here are the effects of Hitler's actions on Poles (Which, unfortunately, will have consequences to this day, Poles were not like that, so unfortunately, the Nazis erased the identity of Poles, planting the seeds of fascism in them)
Rather, this part of history teaches how victims become perpetrators (What Israel taught us in attacking Palestinians, yes, generations of victims have a seed of fascism that one day grows and shows itself, this is generational trauma that comes at a great cost
Unfortunately, the trauma and actions of the Nazis turned Poles into something they were not (However, they were not guilty of the Holocaust, this is a Zionist lie), it can be considered a defensive reflex that had consequences that should not have happened
Unfortunately, the defensive reflex itself may be like this - it is a strenuous fight against the propaganda you hear, and if you fall victim to it, it is difficult to defeat it, it does not justify those Poles who harmed Jews after the war, but it may provide a slight explanation of what was happening. in the minds of these people, now we see that with the Jews who fell victim to Zionism and cannot overcome the dehumanization towards the Palestinians, Zionism is Nazism in a different disguise, if someone has surrendered to him, he loses the ability to see that those who are harmed are people like him and all the things he knows it's a lie for the purpose of dehumanization
This is a process and getting out of it is a challenge that many people cannot cope with, it lasts for generations, which is devastating
Because it shows that even if a fascist leaves, people will not quickly get rid of the fascism that he engendered in them, unfortunately, the fight against fascism is a big challenge (I speak as a person from Poland and who sees what is happening in the world)
The only way is to teach the new generation that it is wrong, but it is difficult when the family has the seed of fascism in it, so the entire burden falls on their child, unfortunately it is the child who has to break this chain himself and it lasts, and only a small percentage with bigoted parents manage to overcome it
Fighting fascism when people laugh at you for fighting it is a challenge, but it's worth it, I don't blame Poles with trauma and brainwashing victims (Even if they did something unforgivable), because unfortunately, people were helpless and the propaganda worked ( Today we have a different type of propaganda, coming from the Internet, using fake news, or increasing the scope of dehumanization, the early 2000s were a nightmare when it comes to this topic, we are dealing with it now, but it still happens that people believe in propaganda, hello, Zionists)
Unfortunately, the effects of the Third Reich are still taking place in Poland today, which is devastating (The campaign against LGBT+ people in Poland… Just ouch, and the comments blaming Jews for bad movies and TV series sound like blaming Zionists for all Israel's crimes, too fucked up even for me)
Unfortunately, it's depressing even for me, seriously, Poland, a country with a rich history of diversity, was divided by a fascist with a stolen Asian symbol, becoming a shell of the very Poland it was before and then this destroyed identity was exchanged for what the Nazis sowed Poles themselves, because before you say "But Poles were anti-Semites before", well, it's complicated, because there were attempts to integrate Poles and Jews together, they were close to success, but unfortunately, this man appeared and destroyed all progress (Like all books about LGBT+)
Unfortunately, the biggest problem with fascism is that it is difficult to remove, you can remove the culprit and his followers, but you will not get rid of it completely and ignoring how it grows will then make fighting it a cause for ridicule (Or they will call you " "Fascist"… Typical and I have no other comment, or they will use the name of the guy who invented the case when people called everyone "Nazis", which will lead to the fact that real fascists will attack you with it and mock you for peeling off the stickers… Yes, I'm a leftist…)
In Poland, it doesn't make it easier that many Poles consider Hitler to be a leftist (And they are mainly rightists, which is interesting…), so if you are a leftist, they will say that "Adolf Hitler/Joseph Stalin were also leftists… " and well, this is what the fight against fascism looks like, for them you are a fascist because you are an anti-fascist
So yes, Hitler planted fascism in Poles so much that for them all those fighting against fascism are fascists, so yes, fucked up…
The fact that the victim can become the perpetrator is not new, but it is always shocking, the only advantage is that the greatest anti-Semitism you will find on the streets is graffiti on buildings, worse on the Internet, as I mentioned, blaming Jews for the creation of Hollywood something that is shit is like blaming the wall for stubbing your little toe i.e. irrational and stupid, you often wonder why they use "Jew" as an insult, it's like using "Pole" as an insult
And the funny thing is, for some reason, those who use "Jew" as an insult do not have a very rich language, so you can guess that they are not very smart Internet species
And they often have a tendency to have worse grammar than me without Google Translator, or they make so many spelling mistakes that a dyslexic would hold his head after seeing how they can't understand spelling.
But okay, the advantage is that this attack on the "Jew" is used by boomers, so they won't live long in this world :V
The downside is that I have seen zoomers from my country who are proud to be anti-Semites (I'm going to vomit), and many of them like this fucker:
Or the platform itself where it is (Confederation, known for conspiracy theories and anti-Semitism, my mother calls it a zoo)
So if you want to watch anti-Semites and flat earthers who are afraid of vaccines, this is the perfect place, but if you don't want to because you're fucking normal, I don't have to say anything
Unfortunately, the fight in a right-wing-conservative country is terrible, because being a leftist is considered "Abnormal" (Or classic "Fascism", because Hitler is a leftist…), Hitler planted his ideas and there were consequences, maybe it will slowly fade away. calms down (Because they will beat you more for being gay than for being a Jew, but I don't know is this change positive…), unfortunately, Islamophobia increases instead, which should not happen
Because if the problem of anti-Semitism in Poland is somehow talked about, Islamophobia is passed over in silence and I don't like it, because discrimination should not be passed on to another group, that's why Zionists annoy me with their Islamophobia, because this shit got here (Thanks America) and even in the comments I see more hate for Muslims than for Jews (Because those who hate Jews are mainly boomers), so yes, from Jews, it went to Muslims, I guess I don't have to say what's wrong here Yes
So in short, Jews were becoming safer, but other groups were losing security, and it should be that everyone should have the privilege of feeling safe, seriously, fascism is a parasite and once it eats one victim, it looks for a new one
So yes, it has passed on to new groups that are more vulnerable (in terms of legality and being defended), because over the years Jews have received protection (It's not perfect, but they are safer in this respect, as I have already mentioned), so their being a target is only from the boomers or kids who liked confederations too much, the younger ones now preferred to go after another group, i.e. Muslims, and as I mentioned earlier, the dehumanization of Muslims is so bad that the dehumanization of Jews had at least such a positive thing as the length of the trial, here it happened in less than a decade and it's terrifying
Unfortunately, fascism is difficult to eradicate, and the fight against it ends with you being a fascist because you fight it, it has become too normalized, Hitler was the cause because he normalized it, and people out of desperation started to believe him because fascism preys on determined and powerless minds, and the best method is fear (Because this is what people were fed to hate Jews, as you know, what scares you even more is what is happening to Muslims these days)
People become monsters when they are manipulated and this is the worst, the only way to avoid this is to teach new generations how to deal with this type of propaganda, but many people do not want this, because it is "Political Correctness", "Woke", or beloved "Freedom of speech" and "I have the right to my opinion"
What happened after the war should not be used to antagonize Poles, but as something to show that fascism does not disappear so quickly
When a victim becomes his own worst enemy, it is more terrifying than Zionist propaganda blaming Poles for the Holocaust…
This is what we should teach to avoid this (Though it's too late now… Yes, I'm talking about Israel and its crimes against the Palestinians)
Unfortunately, many people do not want to admit to themselves that the victim could have become a villain and it is devastating, because such things happen and avoiding it is simply maintaining the status quo, and it does not work, victims can be perpetrators because the trauma is too strong enough to beat her and that's terrifying
If we avoid uncomfortable topics, unfortunately, nothing will change, especially since many victims are easily manipulated in order to maintain their mental health, which can lead to tragedy, this is a chain and without fighting it, we will have genocides every decades, and this should not have happened, the fight against fascism and dehumanization should be a priority, we should learn how not to give in to it, but I doubt that we will ever reach the stage where learning about dehumanization and fighting it will be mandatory :/
I know I wrote a lot, but there are simply things that scare me, or the one I prefer to mention was the mass of Poles who fought for the Jews, unfortunately, the most rotten ones are the most written down, and we all know that bad people are the loudest and most remembered (Which is painful)
Nobody remembers the Germans who fought for the Jews, because when people think about the Germans, they think about the Nazis from that period, and there were also such Germans, they went on strike for the Jews, unfortunately, no one talks about them, about their courage, but about the Nazis who murdered them. people, bad people are remembered more than good ones, which unfortunately causes us to see the world in black and white, and it is in shades of gray
So considering Poles as evil is also wrong, just like recognizing that every German killed Jews, no, not entirely, it was more complicated, and what is being used is an unfair simplification of this topic, where people from these groups are erased. they were not monsters wanting human blood and instead of talking about them to inspire the young, to fight, it is preferable to keep silent about them in order to tell the story that every person from this group was evil (If you erase the Israelis who fought for the Palestinians, I will be disappointed, but it will show how we, the people, erased the heroes because they did not fit the one-size-fits-all narrative about it that someone is bad and someone is good)
The world is not black and white, not every Israeli wants the death of Palestinians, not every German wanted to murder Jews, not every Pole is an anti-Semite and prefers to simplify and that is harmful
Unfortunately, this line of thinking also makes it difficult to fight fascism, because even if someone comes from a country full of fascists, no one listens to him, he can't be an anti-fascist because he comes from a fascist country, which is fucking crazy
So no matter what you do, you will be a fascist, anti-Semite and other shit because you come from a country with some history that is supposed to mean who you are… You can't fight fascism when no one listens to you when you speak out about it, and then give the text "But your country did something and you should shut up because you are the one"
Yes, this is what the fight against fascism looks like, in short you are always the bad guy for being an anti-fascist and they ignore what you say because of your origins
So you have to support the oppressors, because then you will be labeled "Anti-Semite", fun, right?
Or they will use your origins as an argument that you are an anti-Semite because you hate Zionists (Who, by the way, collaborated with the Nazis and persecute Jews, including Arab and Palestinian ones), so how can you fight fascism when no one listens to you? Well, that's fucked up and difficult unless you live in the US, your opinion means nothing and it's sick
You can be the best person, but your background is all they see and it's fucked up
If people from the USA wrote what I wrote, you would applaud them and it's absurd because it shows xenophobia on this topic
But okay, I've gone off topic, it just pisses me off, Zionists, people who distort the history of Poland during the war, use my origins as an attack, I'm fed up with everything, for supporting the victims of genocide and analyzing what's happening, you will be a villain in the eyes of Americans will we continue to pretend that the dehumanization of Muslims is not worse than the dehumanization of Jews? Is it really wrong to say directly that Jews are safer than Muslims these days? Is stating the fact that Jews receive more police protection than Muslims and black people anti-Semitism?
We have come so far and still have not defeated fascism
Maybe Americans will finally start listening to anti-fascists not from the USA, Canada, Australia and the UK? But no, it's better to see everyone as backward and inferior to yourself…
Jeez, I've been writing this post for several hours now ;-;
Okay, that's enough, because it will be longer than my gameplays on YT…

Germany's leading Social Democratic Party (SPD) and the opposition Christian Democratic Party (CDU) have ordered high schools in Berlin's borough of Neukolln to distribute brochures titled The Myth of Israel #1948. [...] Neukolln is one of Berlin's most diverse and international boroughs with a large Palestinian community. [...] The brochure states there are five "myths" around the creation of the state of Israel, which are subsequently refuted in short essays by various authors. In the first section, debunking myth #1, that Jews and Arabs lived together in peace before Israel was founded, Israel's pre-state militia, the Haganah, responsible for the destruction of 531 Palestinian villages and the expulsion of 700,000 Palestinians between December 1947 and the summer of 1948, is promoted as a merely "defensive" Jewish resistance movement. Under 'Myth #2: Israel was established on stolen Palestinian land', Masiyot states that the acquisition of land by Jewish immigrants to Palestine took the form of a legal exchange of capital for an official title deed. At no point in history was land illegally conquered by Jewish immigrants, the author of the text, Michael Spaney, claims. Even land conquered following the wars of 1948 and 1967 and the subsequent construction of settlements, which are internationally recognised as a violation of international law, did not occur unlawfully, it says. "Anyone who uses the accusation of land theft as an argument demonises Israel and denies its legitimacy, i.e. acts out of antisemitic motives," Spaney wrote. "Myth #5: Israel is to blame for the Nakba", includes a text by researcher Shany Mor titled "the UN is distorting the meaning of the Nakba: its view of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is extremely one-sided". In the text, Mor states that "displacement during war - then and now - was nothing unusual". He also labels the UN's attention to the Palestinian cause "obsessive" and the Arab defeat of 1948 a myth.

Reading comprehension questions:
What does "zionist" mean? Think about how the previous commenter, mythica, is using it in context of OP, then quickly look it up via your choice of search engine. Do you notice any similarities or differences?
Take up mythica's call to type "gaza" into the search on their blog. Do you notice a difference from zionism (as defined in your search by prompt #1) and the contents of these posts?
What call to action is mythica implying by saying "be critical with all these 'vote blue no matter who' posts"?
Which candidate do they imply is "literally committing genocide"? Refer to the graphic above. What is the difference between the candidate's policies on Israel and Palestine? Is it true that only one candidate supports the genocide in Palestine?
Who benefits or loses from Trump's policies, as per the graphic, and who benefits or loses from Biden's policies, as per the graphic?
Drawing from the conclusions of prompt #5, when they write, "This person is only concerned with how THEY are potentially to be affected by this election", what do you think mythica claims OP will experience based on the election?
In the phrases, "them and people like them" and, "the guy that is slightly less likely to take THEIR rights away"? What group/s are referred to as "they"?
Who are some groups that OP mentioned, and refer to in the graphic, that are likely to lose rights with a Trump win? Does this include groups that mythica does not acknowledge?
Check the timestamps on mythica's screenshots. How much time do you think they spent looking at OP's blog for these? Why do you think that mythica did this?
Look.
I have made you a chart. A very simple chart.
People say "You have to draw the line somewhere, and Biden has crossed it-" and my response is "Trump has crossed way more lines than Biden".
These categories are based off of actual policy enacted by both of these men while they were in office.
If the ONLY LINE YOU CARE ABOUT is line 12, you have an incredible amount of privilege, AND YOU DO NOT CARE ABOUT PALESTINIANS. You obviously have nothing to fear from a Trump presidency, and you do not give a fuck if a ceasefire actually occurs. You are obviously fine if your queer, disabled, and marginalized loved ones are hurt. You clearly don't care about the status of American democracy, which Trump has openly stated he plans to destroy on day 1 he is in office.
#edited to add the last one#really don't want to be a jackass but I want to break down why this shit's so bad.#half of their reply was antisemitic dogwhistling and idek or care if they knew that's what they're doing. it's gotta stop.#and what isn't antisemitism is this heinously unproductive 'fuck the state and give up' defeatism that helps nobody but republicans.#and the irony is that all their claims that ppl showing trump is worse are just upholding a genocide and dont care abt anyone but themselve#is BLATANTLY more true abt the 'both sides are the same' ppl.#like they're literally more concerned with pretending to have nothing to do w which shitty guy gets elected and not FEELING complicit#than actually trying to decrease the amount of turmoil in the world. shut the fuck up and email your local reps or something

I just. It just feels like everything about the future has been on hold since trump came down on that escalator. We have so many existential threats we need to address but its felt like groundhog day over and over again, it feels like we as a society can't grow or learn or change until we deal with this, it feels claustrophobic and im tired of living the same day over and over again. And this with so many issues, climate change and gun violence and antisemitism and workers rights and misogyny - i know we can and will move forward eventually but the ONLY job is to defeat republicans and the vile fascist ideology currently using their party as a host, and 9 years in i still don't see our institutions reckoning with this
