Brits are so fucking good at chants. Caught the quick rhythm and even the melody in just a bar.

The IDF is a terrorist organization. Prove me wrong.

You know, at one point during this war, I thought, “they’re compelled to service, most of them probably don’t wanna be there, and we can’t hold them responsible for the orders of the state.”
Then I saw some interviews with some IDF soldiers. Then I saw more interviews. And it’s the same in recent interviews: they are happy to be there, and they absolutely love genocide Palestinians.
Fuck the IDF

If I was a news agency with an agenda I wouldn’t be broadcasting the interviews that are negative either. Those you will find on foreign TV channels, 10-20 years from now after those who are currently serving finish their mandatory service and immigrate elsewhere. Every once in a while some event happens which becomes difficult to cover up. Like the Pilot Letters from 2003 and 2023, but it is the exception rather then the norm.

They aren’t going to let you see the unenthusiastic ones.

Even if it were the case that they didn’t want to be there, “just following orders” is not an acceptable excuse for committing a genocide. The morally correct thing to do if you’re compelled to service in the IDF is to refuse and face the consequences, because they cannot be worse than the moral injury of being tasked with the murder of innocent children.

I still think it’s basically brainwshing by government propaganda.

If you missed the 2000s anti war punk bands this guy delivers with a 2025 vibe.

What’s up with the stage name, though? Does he do Bob Dylan covers or is that just his name?

Bob Vylan are a two piece. Bobby Vylan and Bobbie Vylan are the members. Often referred to as the Bobs. They make music that references deep social injustice issues within the UK. Kind of a mix between punk and grime.

What a hateful person.
Hansae@lemmy.dbzer0.com 42 minutes ago
Idk I’d suggest looking at the state of Gazas hospitals and childrens services (all done specifically by the IDF) before coming to such a bad conclusion. Shitting on the IDF is the best thing people can be doing, there has unfortunately been some genuinely anti semitic stuff mixed in with the pro Palestinian movement but this ain’t it chief.
Meltdown@lemmy.world 2 minutes ago
It’s a bad conclusion because I think that calling for people to be killed is immoral? You have a perverse sense of morality if you truly believe that.

I feel like wishing people who are purposefully murdering children would die is not hateful and actually a pretty moral stance
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 4 hours ago
It’s definitely not a black and white issue for sure, every adult must serve in the IDF or face criminal prosecution in Israel, so saying “death to the IDF” and “death to every of age Israeli citizen” are basically the same statement.
Meltdown@lemmy.world 8 hours ago
I feel like wishing people to die at all is a pretty immoral stance, but you obviously have your own version of morality where killing people is justifiable, so you do you I guess.

Maybe it’s because half their raps are in Gaeilge or the BBC just didn’t check, but booking Kneecap and not expecting to hear something about governments and Palestine would be like booking NWA and cutting their mics if they played Fuck the Police.
Great job riling up the crowd for Vylan’s new chant there, genius move.
