The institution later said it never intended to get ‘political’

Only really applies to the the Zionist assholes reading this now I suppose it is obvious
The word genocide has been weaponized to the point where Jews can’t discuss the holocaust without being attacked for it.
But sure, you’re not antisemitic at all!
Just FYI. There is no reason to stay this stupid. You can educate yourself at very little cost of time and money.
Give it a shot.
Lol
I think I said quite a while ago that the Lemmy troll brigades should really invest some effort into pro-Israel accounts, they could get a ton of mileage out of them. I have mixed feelings about the fact that they seem to have taken up the challenge. I used to never see this stuff.
This thread is about being angry at Jews in Los Angeles because of actions by Jews on the other side of the world. Go outside and touch grass if you think it’s trolling to say this is just straight up racism to blame an entire ethnicity for the actions of the few.
Antisemitism is racism towards Jews with a shitload of rationalizations layered on top of it. So go on and rationalize how being angry at Jews in LA for things happening on the other side of the world isn’t Antisemitism. Go on… explain how this isn’t antisemitism.
While Jewish people as a whole shouldn’t be attacked for the actions of a nation state, anyone supporting that nation state’s actions are out of line and a great way to stop criticism of anyone supporting genocide is to STOP COMMITTING AND SUPPORTING GENOCIDE.
It’s the Los Angeles Holocaust Museum, not a Tel Aviv Museum. This is attacking American Jews, it’s not attacking Israel. It’s attacking Jews in the US because people are angry about things Jews on the other side of the world are doing. Blaming an entire ethnicity for the actions of other people of that ethnicity is plain racism.
STOP SUPPORTING ANTISEMITISM.
It's actually quite a bit worse than the headline. They deleted the post saying 'never again' applies to all people, and explained that some people might have thought they included Palestinians in "all people" when they said that, and they officially said that didn't want to give that impression.
Never again*
*Terms and conditions apply
Sometimes again.
Dark Skin color and holy places exempt
Who exactly is not included in the quote “never again”? Make it official. What group of people is it OK to genocide?
Insert the meme of the goose pursuing the Holocaust Museum angrily demanding "who doesn't it apply to, Holocaust Museum? WHO DOESN'T IT APPLY TO?" Here.
“We are against genocide”
‘I can’t believe you hate Israel, you antisemite!’
This feels like a rather large self-report.
Feels like the point is to be overt. It is dominance theatre, an effort to demonstrate to protestors that nothing can stop them.
It would be a shame to let them have their way.
We are done as society. When being against genocide is considered “political” there is no going back.
Being opposed to actions of a state(or for them) is inherently political
personally I’d go with something like: ‘When being against genocide is considered controversial/anti-semitic there is no going back.’
it does not have to be political to be against murder at all. just because it has implications in politics does not mean the topic or opinion itself is political.
the fact that a state is comitting the act is obviously political, but that does not magically make the opinion “murder bad” a political stance.
advocating for or defending genocide is an inherently evil thing to do. i think that is natural law.
