Every fucking time! I just know that whenever I see this guy on a post, this comment will be the first one I see. "He dOseN'T DeseRVe a MemE teMPlaTe" like it's some big fucking honor for your picture to be posted on Lemmy with some random fucking text. Nobody fucking cares!
I find this statement funny cuz it also implies that the reason why freedom fighters are not terrorists is because they won, and likewise the only reason why terrorists are deemed such is because they lost.
Originally it wasn't, it was about finding a home nation for Jews in exodus. However they made it into a nation for Jews only and that's where things got messy.
I did read that, I'ts just very overtly biassed. I dislike that this writer made it about Marxism, which it doesn't really have anything to do with, ideologically. I also object of retoactively using the term fascism for anything dating before Benito Mussolini, as he kind of coined the term. Any use of the term before that is couterfactual. Ethno Nationalism is a more proper term.
The original Judenstaat of Herzl never spoke of a pure Judish state where Palestinians were to be expunged from. Thats quite recent.
Zionism was never a anti-marxist thing, just the pogroms of the post revolutionary Russia (which by some -misguidedly- is thought of as a Marxist state) were a catalist.
Too often, the prevalence of right wing domestic terrorism in the US gets ignored. The Oklahoma City bombing, Dylann Roof, anti-abortion violence, and the Orlando nightclub shooting just to name a few. As far back as 1870, the KKK was formally considered to be a terrorist organization. Lynching is considered a terrorist act.
This could be on twitter, but instead it's here, clogging the meme page, shit post. Also the text on the balaclava is Arabic not Hebrew, they look nothing a like and yet it is on the picture
Racism is not cool, dude. you can do this. you can understand for yourself why saying all muslims are terrorists or all zionists are terrorists is just a flat out stupid thing to say, the same way saying all christians are fucking retarded is probably not true either despite the bulk of the evidence being in one direction. I'm rooting for you m8, you'll get there eventually, in the mean time try to stop being a professional cunt. you're doing the same religulous thing as them, running your mouth like this
Israel's implementation of zionism is as far removed from the ideal as America's implementation of democracy. Neither utopia worked out the way it might have if the humans in it were better people.
didn't say it was, didn't say the retarded thing you said either, didn't call the man antisemitic, just called him out for parroting a nutjob's anticommunist website. He linked it himself
Zionism is a religious and political movement to reclaim Palestine for the Israeli people and views that land as inherently belonging to Jewish people because God said so.
That belief alone is not enough to call it a genocidal ideology. However, because Zionists overwhelmingly "reclaim" the land by terrorizing the current inhabitants, it's not that much of a stretch.
It is also inherently nationalistic and Zionists are inherently colonizers. It's not racist to say that because it's an ideology, and a harmful one.
Just like I'd call all Westboro Baptists bigots. And I'd call any far-right group fascists. The Zionist ideology is the exact same
