For anyone seeing this in greater, lemmy, I am making fun of this because it is including people like Hasan Piker, Cori Bush, and Greta Thunberg as antisemites which is ridiculous. I’m only somewhat aware of Bassem Youssef and don’t think he is an antisemite either and I don’t know who Jess Natale is (I also didn’t know who John Cusack was and looked him up and he is not an antisemite either). Obviously people like Candace Owens and Jackson Hinkle are antisemitic, but if you are gonna cheapen the word by including Greta Thunberg as an antisemite you deserve to be clowned on.
Some of that stuff is batshit insane but some of that stuff has truth to it no? (Please educate me if I’m wrong!)
I read some information about John F. Kennedy possibly getting assassinated because AIPAC reasons.
There are also interviews with ‘israelis’ where they themselves say that they are a superior race, and non-Jews should be serving them.
I don’t know anything about this guy but I hate how we can’t talk about the real ethnic / racial supremacy problems that are so blatantly said by ‘israelis’ because it’s used as a dog whistle to say the most antisemitic shit after.
This guy is so keen to lump all Jewish people into a single group and probably doesn’t realize how many people he interacts with on the daily are Jewish.
It reminds me of a story my girlfriend’s dad told me about how when he was in college ~50 years ago, he had an antisemitic roommate who swore he could tell if someone was Jewish just by looking at them. The entire year his roommate never knew he was sleeping 5 feet away from one.
No, you’re wrong, taking racist and chauvanistic attitudes towards any race or group of people is always unacceptable. We oppose “Israel” for it’s settler-colonialism, but it’s not a statement on Jews or Judaism, it’s a statement on western imperialism. Never give actual antisemites like this any ground whatsoever, it’s unacceptable and is exactly what the settler colonial entity wants.
I’m sorry I don’t really understand.
Why can’t we discuss ethnic supremacy, used by many ‘israelis’, even Benjamin Netanyahu who stated “we are the light, they are the dark”
Or the many videos of IOF soldiers bombing homes, schools, and hospitals, chanting “Amalek.”
You can say this is the fault of imperialism, and you would be correct. But there are people in ‘israel’, and not a small minority, who truly believe they are a supreme race. I feel it would be disingenuous not to recognize that as a fact.
Again I am not trying to state arguments, I don’t even believe zionism has any real merit to Judaism. The founder of the modern Zionism and the visionary of the Jewish State spoke neither Hebrew or Yiddish, had no Jewish education, and was so thoroughly secular as to appear, in fin-de-siècle Paris and Vienna, the very image of a dashing boulevardier.. Herzl himself didn’t practice the religion.
This is coming from a person whose grandparents became refugees in 1948, and still has family in the West Bank. I’ve been there myself and have seen how my people are treated like animals by ethnic supremacy. I really don’t see why it would be harmful to point it out.
I can talk more about my experiences visiting my cousins who had a settlement next to their village if you want.
Yes, it’s true that these are the crimes of Zionists, but Dan Bilzerian is clearly not critical of Zionism here for being Zionism. He’s being racist against Jews, the majority of which globally do not reside in the Zionist entity. Supremacist views by any race are abbhorrent and lead to the crimes like those of Zionism.
This is not a defense of the Jewish-Supremacists, but instead to say that using the existence of Zionism to say that the antisemites have a point is wrong.
Ah thank you, his correlation of zionist crimes with judaism is something I sadly overlooked. I appreciate your help!
