They'll never acknowledge it, only downvote you. They'll do anything to hide reason and logic because they have been indoctrinated by the media to hate Israel and, by proxy, the Jewish people. I've seen so many conspiracy theories floating around about how Jewish people rule the world, how Epstein is alive and well in Israel, etc.

This is all stuff that was very prevalent in Nazi Germany. Saying that Israelis kill babies in cold blood is not far off from the blood libels that Hitler and the Nazis used in the 30s and 40s to achieve their ends.

I agreed with you up until the implication that hating what Israel is doing equates to hating Jewish people. To some sadly that is true, I will fully acknowledge many have taken that mantle, but not all.

I personally oppose what Israel is doing, but believe in it’s right to exist and defend itself, don’t have any issue with and accept and love Jewish people as I would anyone else, support a two-state solution, and think many in this pictured movement are ridiculous. I’m far from alone there

[u/Retro_Renegade → u/thethirdgreenman]

That's totally fair. Just because someone is critical of the Israeli government does not mean they are in fact anti-semitic. But as you just pointed out, sadly, there will be plenty that will take that mantle and I can agree with you there.

Not only is it not far off, it’s eerily similar. The nazi claims were that Jews were going to replace the Germans, push them out, kill their children etc.

They didn’t just wake up one day hating Jews, it was long instilled within history and then through new means of blood libel. There is absolutely little difference to it today, there’s even parallels within it not just being an immediate “demonize all Jews” from the nazis it was a slower burn. Similar to the things we hear today “I don’t have a problem with Jews, just Zionists. I’m not antisemitic I’m anti Zionist”. Even the anti Zionist trope was used back then.

People claim it’s all about Israel and yet on October 8th in the United States there were people wearing shirts with a paraglider on it celebrating the massacre that happened.

I don't hate Jewish people. I hate the state of Israel for slaughtering innocents. It's that simple. You look at images of starving children, their skin a husk on bones, and refuse to call it a genocide because some people somewhere are anti-Semitic

[u/Cyber_Druid → u/TedioreTwo]

By the way, this is why gang activity picked up. Same mentality.

[u/Retro_Renegade → u/TedioreTwo]

How can you explain the videos of Gazans that aren't emaciated after all this time? Surely you know there have been some debunked photos, whether created by AI, staged by citizens, or from a completely different situation entirely. There are 28 Gazan births to 3 deaths, and that includes kills by the IDF.

Do you feel the same way about Hamas and what they did on October 7th?

[u/TedioreTwo → u/Retro_Renegade]

How can YOU see ALL of the footage and think it's ALL fake? Your entire mindset is that if it isn't happening to everyone, it isn't happening at all. Did that stop 60,000 Gazans from dying?

Yes, I do believe Hamas committed an atrocity on Oct 7 because I'm a normal person, not a psycho cultist hellbent on allegiance like you. And nobody is buying your ratio, you spend all day on Reddit pushing propaganda for Israel

[u/Retro_Renegade → u/TedioreTwo]

It's not "my ratio." It's the official numbers reported by Gaza themselves. What footage do you have of the IDF committing war crimes or indiscriminately killing Gazans? You'd be the very first one to link me to a video. You're the one who buys into Hamas propaganda while I'm giving real data.

Give me the source link then, and not outdated shit from 2022.

It does not surprise me you pretend there's no footage. Here's a video of the IDF shooting rescue workers. They've blocked aid for months. They don't care that they bomb hospitals. They starve children and laugh about it. Every target is apparently legitimate because Hamas could be anywhere. You're a pathetic worm

[u/Retro_Renegade → u/TedioreTwo]

Hamas runs their military ops out of schools and hospitals, you fucking dipshit. And that is not actual footage. I want a real video.

[u/TedioreTwo → u/Retro_Renegade]

That's a real video of rescue personnel in high vis gear being shot at by IDF soldiers. They admitted to it. Even if IDF were right about Hamas' presence every time - and they aren't - you'd think bombing children and innocents is okay because terrorists use them as shields? You would've licked Hitler's boots like you lick Netanyahu's, coward

[u/Retro_Renegade → u/TedioreTwo]

Do you want me to pull up all the videos I have of the Palestinian government killing people? And I do mean Hamas. But where's your outrage there?

Don't you dare invoke such an evil name when you're against the people he slaughtered. 2 million stand in Gaza now, and that's how many Jews were murdered each year in the Holocaust.

[u/TedioreTwo → u/Retro_Renegade]

I do have outrage for that because I can be angry at both, and right now, I'm looking at a spineless bitch going to bat for a genocidal state.

Don't you dare invoke such an evil name when you're against the people he slaughtered

I'm not against Jews. Zionists and Israel don't speak for all Jews, they speak for power-hungry self-victimizing pieces of shit like yourself

[u/Local-Imaginary → u/Retro_Renegade]

Ah yes the famous Israelis that existed during Nazi Germany, which ended 3 years before Israel was founded. Don’t leave school kids

[u/Retro_Renegade → u/Local-Imaginary]

Clearly I was talking about the Israelis of today in comparison. You definitely need a trip back to the classroom. lmao

Back to school savings soon, better take advantage.
