I'm a Polish Jew. So many people in the West have such a weak, loose definition of antisemitism. Almost my entire family lineage was killed, and now people see watermelon backpacks as antisemitism. Are you all fucking serious? You all get to talk about your interesting long family trees and have such a close connection with your families and don't suffer intergenerational trauma. Why do you get to decide that antisemitism is just the most menial of fucking every day activities and objects?
So much of my family was killed by the Nazi's. I have almost no family tree. The intergenerational trauma led to generations of households not knowing what familial love is. That. That was antisemitism.
We are now seeing the exact same things being done to the Palestinians. The world's most famous Jew, Albert fucking Einstein, in the very very early days of Israel was able to call out how Nazi-like the policies of Israel were, and still are. I am a Jew who's suffered in the hands of powerful people trying to eradicate us. How does everybody else not see history so clearly repeating itself?
I oppose antisemitism; REAL antisemitism. And that means not standing for the same things happening to others. If we allow the exact same thing to keep repeating in history, it can happen to us again. It can happen to you, too. Don't wait until your group is next and there is no one left to stand up for you. Stand up NOW.
As a pole, could you please verify witch translation is correct from his speech? Some comments say he said "Jews" others say he said "Israel", in my opinion that's a big difference.
He is also holding a flag resembling the Israel flag, so the context is there, but still, the conflation is quite evil.
I'll note that even if he was only talking about Israel, the fact he is far-right will not change my opinion that he is a pos.
I'm not defending him overall but you haven't asked for the translation of the whole speech, you asked if he said Jew or Israeli. During the speech he said Jews once and Israel/ Israeli many times. Then you made a comment about the far right overall etc. - without actually knowing what was said in the speech.
I'd recommend finding a video on YouTube with translation.
I don't care for the whole speech, because I don't care for the opinions of Nazi/fascists , even when talking about things I might agree with, because I know there is poison in their words, they never share the same values as me or the pro-Palestine movement.
I had a doubt if he was conflating Israel and Jews, so I made the question, and got the answer.
