Idk, have you heard Run the Jewels?
TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yes. One Day as a Lion is great too.

It’s funny when conservatives realized that RATM is a hard-left band. Maybe they should have listened to the lyrics 20 years ago.

But Islamofascist Jew Killers seem to be all the rage here on Fediverse, Nazis bad, but Islamfascist Jew Killers good, the purposeful disconnect and cognitive dissonance kills Jews

Antisemitism is not the same as Anti-Zionism tho

They may be different things, but they correlate a lot oft times.
“From a large survey of 5,000 citizens of ten European countries, we showed that the prevalence of those harboring (self reported) anti-Semitic views consistently increases with respondents’ degree of anti-Israel sentiment, even after controlling for other factors. It is noteworthy that fewer than one-quarter of those with anti-Israel index scores of only 1 or 2 harbor anti-Semitic views (as defined by anti-Semitic index scores exceeding 5), which supports the contention that one certainly can be critical of Israeli policies without being anti-Semitic. However, among those with the most extreme anti-Israel sentiments in our survey (anti-Israel index scores of 4), 56 percent report anti-Semitic leanings. Based on this analysis, when an individual’s criticism of Israel becomes sufficiently severe, it does become.” (Kaplan & Small 2006, p. 560)"

Congratulations. You’ve bought into Israeli propaganda or are a complete troll. One can be rehabilitated, the other I think is less likely. Either way, I hope you find your way to better opinions.

Yo! That’s me. I downvoted this. It’s a childish and simplistic message, pandering to it’s audience.
And the question once you’ve agreed “we should kill nazis!” is, who’s a nazi? Are you talking about actual, card-carrying members of the Nazi party–all 30 of them or whatever? Or are you talking about, like, nazis, man! Cuz you could easily be called a nazi for supporting Israel in that conflict: Israel is acting like fascists, and totally committing a genocide! You could also be a nazi for supporting Palestine: they’re antisemitic as fuck, and genocide is literally their party platform! You could be called a nazi for supporting either side of Russia/Ukraine, too. Clearly the Republicans are nazis, amirite? But wait no, ‘Nazi’ stands for ‘National Socialists’ so actually the left-wing dems are real nazis!
I’ve heard the world ‘nazi’ (and ‘fascist’) so fucking much in the last decade that I’m fucking sick of it, so “kill nazis!” is a meaningless statement, intended to make the reader feel smug and self-righteous, and nothing else. Fucking pandering.
Also, Tom Morello (gifted tho he is) left a bad taste in my mouth with this bullshit.

The concept is that you don’t have to politely sit quietly and listen while someone spouts hate. You are empowered and encouraged to make it stop. That doesn’t necessarily involve physical violence but it should remind you that hate can weaponize the rules of polite society and you don’t have help.

I’d say we just kill them as our of-their-time forefathers have done.

I downvoted it simply because the website/image won’t load.
Asudox@lemmy.world 1 year ago
That’s not a reason.
