I'm only 38, and up until about the age of 36 I wouldn't have believed I'd ever live to see Israel go full Nazi so publicly.

I mean, I'm pretty sure there's a history there between the two.

It's always been like this. Oct 7 just broke the dam on its public perception. You can read the writings of jabotinsky and Ben gurion and see the same belief in ethnic cleansing and conquest.

These kinda comments always fuck with me. Were you not paying attention? Is this some sort of pride in not paying attention? I'm 35 and noticed it was happening while I was in high school, why did it take you until a year or two ago to notice what was happening the entire time?

[-] quarkquasar@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

Because I was paying attention to the destruction of my own country around me?

Do you think every human is scanning every country every moment for injustices to be enraged at?

You're the one who said you thought they wouldn't. Can't pull the "well I actually don't know anything and wasn't paying attention and actually you're the dumb one" card now.

I'm just gonna let you have the conversations you think you're having, you clearly don't need input.

Is you attention span limited to your immediate surroundings? Do you think your home unaffected by geopolitics? You chose to stay ignorant.

There’s been fifteen years or so, when I was chatting with a Israel chick who told me they need to make final solution for arabs people and kill them all. When I told her that she sounds like a nazi, she got mad, cursed me and claimed there’s nothing wrong with her opinion. She then blocked me but I wasn’t worried about that. I never forget her saying, it was unbelievable. But she makes me to change my perceptions about Israel.

Why would you think being jewish is some kind of opposite of being a fascist?

[-] quarkquasar@lemmy.world -3 points 6 days ago

I had heard once or twice about this thing called the Holocaust, didn't really make the news clearly, but if you had been informed of it, you might think that the Jews would generally be against fascism.

[-] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 days ago

That would be a pretty silly thing to think and demonstrates a very surface level understanding of the holocaust, Nazi Germany and the foundation of Israel. Though I can't really blame you or others that think that same way, Israel has worked diligently to turn the Holocaust into a moral shield for everything they do. So that people make the same assumption you do.
