Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Aren't Palestinians also (generally) Semitic?

Zios on lemny still think they can make people pro occupation and genocide by mentionning some extremist elements

Barrot acknowledged failures in the screening process that allowed her entry. “The security checks, carried out by the French services and Israeli authorities, did not detect the antisemitic content,” he said.

I'm not going to try and justify her post, no-one should. She's praising Hitler.... However, France halting the evacuation due to one woman's social media post seems to me like they're looking for an excuse

What? A Palestinian refugee has some shit to talk about the people who slaughtered their people—and France has paused ALL EVACUATION because of one random person’s opinion… on social media?

Tell me I’m reading this wrong?

Hmm, there's one fly inside this skyscraper. Better tear the while damned thing down, I guess.

So do antisemitic people deserve genocide or what? How the heck is this supposed to make sense?

Edit: If bigotry is a deal breaker then they better be checking Ukrainians for Russophobia.

Is it because praising Adolf Hitler is much worse than copying him?

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 4 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

It's because conflating the Jews and the Israeli Government is antisemitic. It's Israel that's genociding her people, not the Jews as a whole.

Sure she is antisemitic, but what is the French government in this case? Isn't it Sippenhaft? The Nazis back then loved to punish whole families or bigger groups for the crimes of individuals. We overcame that after WWII to some degree, but it seems we're seeing a comeback to some degree.

Oh for sure, banning Gazan refugees because of one lunatic is despicable and basically just an excuse. I really hope our government will be held accountable for enabling genocide. We let Bibi fly over the country multiple times after the ICJ mandate, and we've sent weapons and money to Israel. It's maddening...
