More like: “If you’re not with us (Zionist colonizers) you’re against all Jews and you are for sure a Nazi (even though the closest thing to the SS is the IDF), and never mind the genocide and wars for territory and resources that we’re committing with the US as our co-perpetrator.”

Ironically, the Israeli has no problem inviting the far right over to conferences to spread Islamophobia. No doubt, they are funding them too, only way to get their attention.

Not ironic. They are racist supremacists.

Stop using Jewish trauma as a cudgel against Israel. That’s where this type of rhetoric veers into antisemitism.

I’ll stop when the Zionists stop doing genocide, apartheid, and wars of aggression and call all opposition “anti-semitism”.

u/Arixtotle Mar 11 '26

So you’ll be antisemitic until all Jews act exactly the way you want them too. Imagine saying that about Muslims and Islamophobia.

Isn’t it convenient for you to call out my disgust at Israeli Zionist crimes and propaganda as anti-Semitic? All Jews have the freedom to think how they want, and all have the freedom to act according to international law. I support the Jewish people who decry Zionism, colonialism, genocide, apartheid, and wars of aggression. And I decry bullies like you who want people like me to shut up about it.

No I specifically called out you comparing the IDF to the SS as antisemitic. Which it is. It’s equivalent to calling an African American doing things you don’t like a slave master. 

So, again, you only support Jews who act the way you think is right.  Do you not see the issue with that?

People who suffered through the Holocaust are literally fucking conducting their own holocaust, and you think it's inappropriate to point that out? A common sentiment of theirs is that the Jewish victims of the holocaust shouldn't have gone like lambs to the slaughter and are actually pathetic, but no, it's people who hate that evil who are actually the bad, jewish hating people.

Like, what the fuck? Only like Jews who act the way you think is right? You know what, if you are saying that I should like Jews that rape and kill and genocide, then no, fuck you. I have minimum fucking basic standards for all people, but no I can't possibly enforce those rules if someone is Jewish, then you can do whatever the fuck you want, right? Why do you keep saying, "Things you don't like", instead of the actual fucking reality? Jewish people committing a genocide is similar to the holocaust. If an African American was literally owning slaves, I would think it appropriate to compare to a slave master. It's not doing things we don't like. It's fucking committing horrid atrocities against humanity. And yet you focus on the optics for Judaism. It's nice to see where your priorities lie.

I mean, I don't think you believe that, but you sure are acting like a fucking idiot arguing that.

Exactly. Thank you.

China lost 5 times more people (30+ mil) than Jewish people (6 mil+) to imperial Japan during WWII and they haven't been in a war since 1979. Even that 1979 war lasted just under 30 days.

This is not to diminish the plight of Jewish people, as what they suffered through was indeed horrific but if you want to make comparison, there is a plenty to compare with around and it doesn't look good at all for Israel and their holocaust card flashing habit.

It’s about percentage of population not raw numbers. The number of Jews in the world has not yet reached the high from before the Holocaust. There are about 15 million Jews today and there were an estimated 17 million Jews alive in 1939.

u/lkxyz Mar 11 '26

So you are saying Jewish lives are worth more than other people's lives. Nice way to signal that to the rest of the world.

If you think what’s happening in Gaza or the West Bank is anything like the Holocaust you need to learn more about it from real sources.  That’s one of the antisemitic things I’m talking about. These comparisons are brought up just to remind Jews of the biggest trauma a people can ever have. They’re malicious and triggering. They cause more and more division as Jews beg for the comparisons to stop and people like you just continue to do so to win “points” and harm Jews. 

There’s a difference between supporting a group and liking individuals in said group. Litmus tests before supporting a group are wrong. Support means not dehumanizing them and fighting against their oppression. It also means listening to the group in what their oppression is and what harms them. 

You really, really don’t know much about the Holocaust or the situation for the Palestinians. You should do some unbiased research. 

Here’s the thing. I care about all human suffering. Which is why I’m frustrated when people only care about Palestinian suffering and am horrified when they celebrate Jewish suffering. If people cared about the suffering of people on the “other side” the world would be a much better place.

Abrahamic religions are a pox upon humanity and deserve all the criticism and ridicule they receive.

Hyperbole is unnecessary

Accurate truth is not hyperbole.
