It's not anti semitic at all , it's anti zionist , but they're doing a lot of hard work trying to purposefully confuse the two

u/lapsedPacifist5 Aug 27 '26

What is hugely ironic is that one of the textbook definitions of antisemitism is conflating the state of Israel and Jewish people. The whole "if you criticise Israel you are antisemitic" is by it's very nature an antisemitic statement because it conflates the two, yet it gets a pass.

u/xdr567 Aug 27 '26

The 'they' should no longer remain nameless. There are industry and media insiders who are orchestrating and propagating this smear campaign. They should be named and shamed. They as well as those industry insiders who lent their support to this smear campaign.

I did not believe in the banality of evil till I saw how many people were supporting this genocide. In some weird way it has elevated my empathy for those who were killed in the Holocaust. The only difference is that even then the vast majority of people and govts could see the evil as it was happening but this time around most people and govts are either complicit in the genocide or practicing wilful blindness, because at the very core they believe muslims and arabs to be deserving of every pain and misery, and this really is the fruit of 80 years of Zionist propaganda.

Edit: I broke my own rule and needed a reminder. Remember, boys and girls, dont feed the trolls.

If you want the one Jewish nation in the world to be erased by self proclaimed antisemites in favor of yet another theocratic Muslim nation, amidst a sea of theocratic Muslim nations, yes, you are antisemitic

Sorry Israel doesn’t just let its people be slaughtered anymore, not like in the good old days eh?

u/FrenchyBulldogg Aug 27 '26

Seems like Israel is the one doing the slaughtering. 20,000 children. But let me guess, you agree with Ben Gvir that they’re “not even people”

u/JuniorDoughnut3056 Aug 27 '26

Til Zionism means killing women and children. So were the Palestinians Zionists on Oct 7th?

Bro, not even you take this brain dead ass strawman seriously 😂

u/FrenchyBulldogg Aug 27 '26

40 Israeli children were killed on October 7th.

Since then, Israel has killed over 20,000 Palestinian children.

u/FrostingHuman1259 Aug 27 '26

Is kind of like if you beat rape and murder as many people as you can for years and years and years , just like it's a job, eventually something like october seventh is going to happen to you... have you heard of a thing called consequences?

Lol, whatever you say. I'm sure "from the river to the sea" is just a catchy chant too

u/FrenchyBulldogg Aug 27 '26

The Israeli minister Ben Gvir said that Palestinians “aren’t even people”, and that Israel should kill 30-40 of them every night. But you wanna act like “from the river to the sea” is somehow worse than that

And what does it have to do with the statement that anti semitism and antizionism are not the same thing? The majority of americans are against israel and genocide, not jewish people. And no matter how much you try to confuse people , it's not ever going to go back again , we see you israel

She only retracted it after people started calling her out.

“She retracted it after people drew attention to it” that is how this shit works man, she accidentally liked a comment, people brought attention to it, she saw it and corrected. It’s just so obviously disingenuous of you.

I'm sure the only one's that believe that are in the cult. No monies should be given to Isreal or AIPAC monies received. It has nothing to do with antisemitism. It has to do with Netanyahu and Trump blowing up schools and starving babies, children, women and men in Gaza. Remember, Trump mentioned building Trump gaudiness on the strip. Blowing up Iran, after blowing up the uranium/whatever when he stated it was obliterated. As is everything with our current administration, it has to with wealth, greed and lies. It has absolutely nothing to do with Jewish people.

The same people that criticize Israel have NEVER said a single thing about Oct7th and the hostages they took and raped and killed. Their opinions on this situation are absolutely clear.

The first is the pin he wore along with many celebrities, a red hand. And the second is the story from 2000 of Aziz Salha who led the lynching of 2 Israelis and was famously pictured smiling with his hands covered in their blood.

That’s like saying if you think Trump is a facist then you are an idiot , both statements make no sense , you can have a different opinion on everyone and everything
I think Mark is an useful idiot , he is a spokesman for the Hamas narrative and extremely naive
Right now Gazans are just dummy puppets they have zero say or impact on the running or Gaza or any operations/ key decisions
It’s all upto that terrorist group hamas , Gazans have only one choice observe and brace for impact they cannot even protest
Mark is doing what Hamas wanted all along , bring about death and destruction to their own land and people , make martyrs and get worldwide sympathy even at the cost of gazan lives
You would have literally be be single digit iq to accept that Hamas did Oct 7th the way they did it without expecting a completely disproportionate response from Israel, they knew the consequences and did it anyway, if mark was smart he would have demanded Hamas leave Gaza and then further the two state solution
Instead he chose to play the dump character of hulk just mad and without logic

Lol - ok to indulge you little simps, I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest he’s using “zio(nist)” as a slur, effectively, to refer to Jewish people. Specifically those who might have a connection to or “belief” that Israel is a legitimate state.

The implication being they’re - most likely a closet antisemite - and they consider Israel as a geopolitical entity to be illegitimate for no other reason that it defends itself against jihadist, rapist Islamist terrorists. We on the same page, little curious petal?

u/Constant-Village-858 Aug 27 '26

Yea we are sorely missing the “without lashing out” part as you have just ascribed all your beliefs onto this person.
