Israel is not Judaism and criticism of it is not criticism of Jewish people as a whole. To hold otherwise is to hold an entire people responsible for the actions of a few (those in the Israeli government), that those people often have no or only limited influence over, which would be an inherently bigoted position to take because it robs those people of their agency. If anything, the Israeli government itself is being antisemitic in a sense by pushing such a narrative in order to use Jewish people as a whole as shield against criticism of their actions.

Nothing but Nazism across the entire Fediverse these days, a literal sewer of unavoidable blood libel

I believe it was you, and the Irish.
Oh shit, I just realized why they're mentioned. Yield, for they have the high ground, and cannot be sieged.

Did it never occur to you that the joke part of this being a shitpost is that the “fact check” is wrong?

Joke + propaganda.

1, this is for shitposts, if you’re getting your news here you’re a complete moron. 2, there’s a huge difference between the people of Israel and the government of Israel. Their government is evil and most of the people don’t actually support it. Grow up.

And yet they elect this government again and again… how many years Bibi is in power?
db2@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Just like Putin.

Well, Israel is a democracy, Russia is not (mass media is controlled by the state, real opposition is either killed or in exile, and so on).

Likud only got 23.4% of the vote
MxM111@kbin.social 2 weeks ago
It is multi-party system. Keeping Bibi in power does not mean voting for Likud, but for right-wing parties.
