Only Israelis Could Commit Genocide For Years And Then Demand Sympathy, And Other Notes

Palestinians didn't drive out Jewish People (of whom their number were Palestinian, before AND after their expulsion). Palestinians didn't commit the Jewish Holocaust.

yet Palestinians have been made to pay for millenia of other people's horrors committed. why is that?

(oh, PLEASE say, "khKHamas")

thisisponytoast @thisisphilgood.bsky.social · 6h

because israel was never intended to be an actual state; the nation is its people, in the diaspora. i've been listening to enough Jewish People actually speak with historical facts in regards to The Levant, those responsible for Jewish expulsions, NONE OF WHOM WERE PALESTINIAN.

Don’t listen to anyone who minimizes the threat of a government that “only” wants to tighten the authoritarian surveillance noose for “some” people. THATS ALWAYS HOW IT BEGINS YOU FASCISM ENABLERS.

Full Fact @fullfact.org · 9h

On social media and their website, the Liberal Democrats have claimed “Keir Starmer says everyone in the UK will be required to have mandatory digital ID”.

But this isn’t the case, and we can’t find any evidence the Prime Minister said it was.

Digital ID won’t be mandatory for ‘everyone in the UK’ – Full Fact

The Liberal Democrats have claimed Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said everyone in the UK will have to have digital ID, but that’s not the case.

bodies so charred, you couldn't tell who was Palestinian & who was israeli. maybe it's splitting hairs, idk.

this looks like you're already assimilating into neoliberal ranks.

everything before 10/7 is why 10/7 happened.

no one mourns germans in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising (Intifada, if you will)

you may as well have thrown in the LONG-since debunked hasbara of "40 beheaded babies, systematic raping of women, bodies found in ovens", etc.

israel killed more of their own that day, bodies burnt to a crisp not by khamas' janky weaponry but armed Apache helicopters with war-grade missiles.

Caitlin Johnstone puts it in such a way that makes my weighing in moot.

in the last two years, i've had the impulse to include an important part of 10/7, but as soon as i take a breath to speak, Caitlin has already made the point, & far more succinctly than i've seen many - if any - others have.

i'm guessing in 2 months time, we'll be hearing, "israel is kinda cool, actually..."

and, call me crazy, but i'd swear this is almost something of a trend, giving a larger platform to people w/ particular ideologies... i can't remember the guy's name, but a former mouthpiece for izzy who JUST stepped out of line ended up speaking out his neck (for the last time) not too long ago.

and here i thought Bari Weiss was hated because she's a zionist with a billion bad takes and got someone murdered ((and whose rhetoric may lead (if not already led) to other violence))... *shrugs*

As one of the countless people *actually* cancelled by Bari Weiss, via her vast favor-trading networks of fellow nepotistic gatekeepers in media and publishing, I think both of these asinine dipshits should go fuck themselves.

I didn’t rejoice at her cancellation and got cancelled myself at roughly the same time, but I am sincerely jealous that no regime-aligned billionaire has even fit to curry favor with the Trump administration by giving me a huge sum of money.

The vitriol against Bari Weiss is just thinly-veiled jealousy by people who rejoiced at "cancelling" her in 2020 and are furious she managed to get fabulously wealthy in an infamously brutal and low-paying industry.

⚡️Iran’s foreign minister has hit back at Van Jones’ remarks on HBO’s Real Time w/ Bill Maher after Jones claimed images of dead Palestinian children on social media were part of an Iranian/Qatari propaganda campaign. He replied: “We don’t pay people to lie on social media. That’s what Israel does.”
