The harassment of Jewish artists in American cities is not helping save Palestinian lives and you need to stop pretending otherwise.
The artist being Jewish is not a problem.
Being a Zionist is the problem.
Conflating those two things is as racist as assuming all Chinese people are hardcore Maoists.
Which specific Jews are not Zionists? Zionism is generally defined as the belief that Jews have a right to self government and a return to their ancestral homeland.
Most Jews, as well as most Americans and most everybody outside of terrorist shitholes and Russia agrees with the basic concepts of Zionism to some degree of another.
We can talk about getting a more left wing government in Israel and trying Netanyahu for warcrimes, but wanting Jews gone from their homeland is an absolute non starter.
I know plenty of antizionist Jewish people. Some of them would be comfortable living in what is now Israel as a homeland IF it wasn't a settler colonialist apartheid state and was some sort of pluralistic democratic society.
Hi, I'm an anti-zionist Jew and absolutely fuck Israel! Zionism is bad for everyone, including us. It conflates our religion with a genocidal ideology that rightfully terrifies the rest of the world, which then makes the world think they hate Jews (because they keep hearing "Judaism=Israel"). Despite what Zionist Jews may say, ending Zionism will help us, not hurt us.
The rest of the world isn't terrified of Israel or considers Zionism itself to be genocidal.
Take a break from tiktok.
Who do you include in the rest of the world? Based on your other comment, I get the impression you understand Zionism to mean something very different from what it's historically been.
Well, let's simplify it.
Which specific countries are you suggesting are terrified of Israel?
Fuck off nazi.
Yes, because the Nazis were the ones who called for more left wing governments.
I'm glad the tankies have finally taken their masks off, it's just a shame it had to be over this, the very thing we said it would be.
So Palestinians fighting for their own homeland is fascist as well, by this person's logic.
When Hamas took the hostages into Gaza and refused to take the battlefield elsewhere, were they being just as fascist?
I love to see the "they're using civilians as human shields" argument. They're in one of the most densely populated places in the world and aren't allowed to leave. There isn't really space that isn't surrounded by civilians. There literally is not an option (except for attack into Israeli territory, which I'm sure you're against also).
You can't be pro-Palestine if you are defending the actions of Hamas.
I can't punch you for being part of a protected group, that would be wrong. I can punch you for being a Nazi who just happens to be part of a protected group.
Same logic.
Punch Zionists everyday.
So you are going to ohnch Matisyahu because you think he is a Nazi?
I'm not going to "ohnch" anyone
I apologize, I think my spell check found you too insignificant to activate for.
I have given google a stern talking to.
