Fuck off Nazi, anyone with sense knows the difference between Zionism and Jews.

It’s difficult to comprehend just how much more wealthy a billionaire is. If you spent $10 every ten minutes, it would take you about 70 days to go through $1 million. To reach a billion would take 190 years.

Abbas is not necessarily the best source to quote, that quote in particular was something like 30 years ago and he had clarified his stance later emphasizing the horrific crime against humanity that the holocaust was, but he sucks anyway and has very low approval in Palestine, with a reported 90% of Palestinians wanting him to resign. But it is unfortunate that antisemitism like you describe is very common in the Arab world.

This is pure conjecture but it could be possible Palestinians would have a more accurate view of the situation because of their proxmity and history and therefore have less explicit antisemitism versus anti-Zionism, recognizing the distinction.

Not the best sources, a phone smuggled by a South Korean-based organization that is funded by the US National Endowment for Democracy and reported by state owned BBC, both of which are enemies of NK, and nothing in this article is verifiable. I’m not saying this to promote anything about NK but just from a journalistic perspective this article doesn’t prove much.

Has everyone forgotten about the NSA and their absurdly massive data centers? At least a portion of the US population likely has substantial data from their tech in a database we can’t access.

They don’t see ‘jews’ attacking them and hate jews, they know what the IDF and the US is, of course there are likely antisemitic people there as there may be anywhere, but most people know the difference between Jews as a group and the people they see shooting and bombing them wearing the flag of Israel or the US. Why do you think they wouldn’t make a distinction? Islamic texts reference Jewish and Christian prophets, they don’t just naturally automatically hate each other.

They lived together fine for many years. People are concerned about Palestinians because there is accepted scholarly consensus that they are being killed en masse in a genocide waged by Israel and supported materially by the US and it’s allies. Likely at least 100,000 Palestinian people have been killed since October 2023.This isn’t a competition for who is the most worthy victim historically between Muslims and Jews, innocent families, entire neighborhoods are being obliterated by Israel right now. Thousands of children are at risk of starving because of the total blockade by Israel. Many Jewish people disagree with what is happening and would prefer to share the space in peace.

Supporting Palestine and recognizing this as genocide has nothing to do with recognizing the horrors of the holocaust and feeling sympathy for the Jewish victims of antisemitism, they are not contradictory positions.

‘Pro-Israel figures’ as the headline says are the terrorists they are probably referring to, the ones threatening to kill people on a humanitarian aid mission.

People are closer to being on the same page than they realize I believe, but true, everyone is afraid of making the first move. I’ve heard this idea said a number of times, “I would fight a revolution but I don’t want to lead it.” People are still clinging to establishment politics and parties, what we need is a group to unite people in opposition to the status quo economic and political system and be unafraid to take direct action against the apparatus of the state. A lot of people would be afraid to take these steps, but it doesn’t require everyone, enough dedicated revolutionaries can help lead the non-political masses.

No person does until the conditions force them. Many people in the US are still comfortable enough and have a lot to lose, but the time might come. At a certain point it becomes the easier choice.

I abstain from meat for ethical reasons, a similar ethical reason encourages me to use public transit and bike instead of driving, to reduce my impact on life and the environment. This is anecdotal but most vegans/vegetarians I’ve known are concerned with their impact in general, it’s rare that they only obstain from eating meat but do everything else as an average US meat-eated would.
