Comment on Microsoft is reportedly banning Palestinians in the U.S. for life for calling relatives in Gaza
SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 3 months agoMany Palestinian protests have people cosplaying Hamas and waving Hamas flags.
Hanging out with people that like to dress up as a member of a group that wants to kill Jews makes someone a little antisemitic I think.
Denying that there’s an antisemitism problem in the Palestinian movement doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. In fact that’s the sort of attitude that allows it to persist.

Uh... Did you expect them to not be antisemitic. I mean it's not a good thing but what other outcome did you expect from 75 years of Apartheid and genocide?

Please point to where the anti Israeli movement hates All Arab and Hebrew speakers?
Jews are not the only semites and yes everything I’ve seen in the US is directed at the country, not the people.

Okay this only really works as a gotcha. It doesn't do anything to address the point being made. That aside,
I misread their comment and thought they were talking about Palestinian resistance in Palestine, not the worldwide Anti-Zionist movement so nevermind anything I said up there.

It is a gotcha, but it’s also important to understanding Israel’s victim propaganda. They’re not being truthful. They’re trying to paint any opposition as racist.
