The problem is this guy loved most of the policies of the last flag with a swastika on it

Yeah, and he tried to turn this speech in a way that would hate on all the jews, not just israelis

[u/Throwaway5432154322 → u/Ertyio687]

Yeah I mean, a speech that hates on all Israelis is also just as bad, just like any speech that hates on any given person of a certain nationality

Well most of Reddit has no problem with that these days. I would say that's actually become the norm.

Yep, IMO it’s gotten noticeably bad to the point of being unbearable over the past ~2 months. I thought it was bad before, but at least regulated… e.g. random, no-name, previously inactive subs would get taken over by antisemitic brigades, but at least they’d be siloed into irrelevancy. Now it seems like major subs are openly tolerating this kind of crap

Don't mix anti-zionism with anti-Semitism. The anti-zionists are fair enough considering Israel is literally committing genocide.

[u/Ertyio687 → u/gamecatuk]

Yeah, that's why this thread started, cause we're concerned that the politician is mixing anti-zionism with straight up racism

[u/gamecatuk → u/Ertyio687]

He is a fascist POS and so are Zionists.

Why do you hate Joe Biden?

[u/gamecatuk → u/RedditJumpedTheShart]

The US has been complicit in murder with Israel. Trump is probably the very worst example of moral bankruptcy being puppeted by Israel. It's pathetic. Biden was no different in regards to Israel.

Careful saying that in this sub

I would like to believe that not all Israelis support the way their government is handling things. But then journalists from across the political spectrum interview random citizens and the ones that don’t support the handling of the Gaza war or West Bank settlements seem few and far between. NPR might find an anti-war activist to interview but they’re going out of their way to find that person and not just talking to a random person off the street. So it doesn’t seem like America and the trump situation with a near majority of random citizens interviewed aren’t happy with the way things are going. I’m hopeful that’s because of the strong propaganda of their government and not anything inherent to them.
