Supporters say it’s over her advocacy for Gazan children.

How DARE she!!!! /s

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 15 points 16 hours ago

Truth be told it'd be weird if that part said literally anything else. "Supporters say it's over her potty training videos."

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 91 points 22 hours ago (6 children)

Do they realize how silly this shows them to be? I get the impression they’re so out of touch they don’t even realize it.

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 61 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

They no longer care. They know how ridiculous they are they still backed by the major west, arab traitors, china and russia although most of those countries try to deny that

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 35 points 22 hours ago

They’ve cratered decades of support and goodwill from a huge portion of the world. May not have an impact today but I hope it changes in the future.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 16 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Given my interactions with zionist friends and family, they're completely out of touch. They've shoehorned themselves into a hasbara bubble and consider anything not pro-Israel to be "Qatari propaganda" one way or another. That closes any channel that could possibly inform them of the way they appear and lets them lean into their victimhood, raging against anyone and anything that isn't aligned.

Their existence is contingent on a majority of Americans being ignorant of reality.

[–] DaMummy@lemmy.world 11 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Wait, is this not a The Onion article? Of one of the foreign versions of it.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 25 points 20 hours ago

No, they've been trying to undermine Ms Rachel's calls to not murder children for months now...

Mashallah this is a great video

[–] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 1 points 2 hours ago

They are already too out of touch to even realize how fucking bonkers they look to anyone not already in their little bubble.

[–] cecilkorik@piefed.ca 85 points 21 hours ago

It's never wrong to punch a Nazi, even if the Nazi is Jewish.

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 63 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Imagine being so completely detached from reality, that you would put Ms Rachel in the same category as Tucker Carlson? The mental gymnastics required to make that make sense, is Olympic caliber.

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 40 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Also Nick Fuentes is nowhere to be found

[–] n4ch1sm0@piefed.social 26 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

That'd be too stark of a difference; showing what obvious legitimate antisemitism looks like. I'm willing to bet they'll always pretend Nick Fuentes doesn't exist.

Funny since he's trying to make them not exist for real. They'd rather continue their own genocide than stand against someone who wants to genocide them. If it were me I'd be concerned about the amount of blowback we keep seeing on the news, but hey they're not my chosen people.

[–] b161@lemmy.blahaj.zone 47 points 16 hours ago

It’s antisemitic to think murdering children is wrong apparently.

[–] TriangleSpecialist@lemmy.world 40 points 21 hours ago

That's convenient, I had just created a "genocide apologists of the year" award, and was not sure who to give it to.

[–] nkat2112@sh.itjust.works 29 points 21 hours ago

Let's hope that the Israeli genocide against the people of Palestine will somehow come to an end.

Special thanks to Ms. Rachel for being the guiding light we need in these dark times and for speaking truth to evil power.

[–] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.dbzer0.com 26 points 10 hours ago

As a Jewish person I aspire to one day be antisemite of the year

[–] mirshafie@europe.pub 26 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago) (1 children)

Good video essay on the topic by Lindsay Ellis.

Incidentally I love that the video has raised $800k for Palestinian Children's Relief Fund.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 6 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

I love that she descended from the mountain to bestow her powerful, well-thought and thorough video on this topic, using her massive influence and status as a beloved, original bread-tuber to lay some sharp truths on the population before returning to her sanctuary.

I know it's hard and emotional and you set yourself up for some of the most extreme attacks as a creator when you put your foot in this ring, but that's what the bad people have set up by design to discourage resistance. It's our responsibility to push back on injustice, especially when it's been leveraged so hard using such a "touchy" facade, like anti-semitism.

There are a few large personalities who are so scared of stepping on people's toes or being called an "anti-semite" for speaking out against literal genocide that they won't even mention it, and some who are just more hung up on social acceptance than making a better world. (Staring hard and disapprovingly at you Natalie.)

[–] mirshafie@europe.pub 2 points 2 hours ago

Yeah but the tide is turning, at least in Sweden and it seems in the US as well. It's decreasingly socially acceptable to shame people into going alone with war crimes and ethnic cleansing, and it is especially ugly to use accusations of bigotry to promote bigotry.

[–] iambatman1469@ttrpg.network 24 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

It's funny how words lose meaning.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 7 points 4 hours ago

It's real funny how the world's only "Jewish State" has set themselves up for another fucking CENTURY of actual bigotry and real anti-semitism by trying to wrap their cruel murder campaign in their ethnicity and heritage.

We're going to have so, so many groups of people screaming death to Jewish people across the entire world after Benjie's regime collapses one day.

I guess fuck all that work we did to save Jewish people from actual persecution and murder. I wonder what the next "reversing progress" campaign we're going to see and what the word for them will be called in future textbooks.

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 22 points 17 hours ago

If thinking ethnic cleansing is wrong is antisemitism, yeah, I guess. But at that point it seems like it’s morally right to be antisemitic.

We need more destructive verbs. The last set we had are losing impact.

[–] khepri@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

"slam" "blast" "rip" etc are for sure going the way of "This one weird trick" and "you won't believe" in terms of being overused to the point where they are more comedy than anything else

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 10 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

But Palestinians are Semetic people... How can she be an anti-Semite?

[–] Leomas@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

In the same way that causcasian can mean people from the caucasus region or white people depending on context.

[–] sns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 21 hours ago

Israel - just as pathetic as evil.

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 6 points 10 hours ago

How many of those "antisemites" on that list think:

  • Jews are greedy, or at least "have much higher financial intelligence on average than non-Jews",
  • Jews are scheming,
  • liberal Jews are behind "wokeness",
  • Jews are massively overrepresented in sex and financial crimes,
  • Jews are massively overrepresented in financial institutions, the media, and the arts,
  • some people cover up their Jewish heritage.
  • Jews and Gentiles are unable to live together in peace?
[–] CaptainBasculin@lemmy.bascul.in 6 points 20 hours ago

Wow, what a prestigious award. I'm an amateur antisemite but I have the passion to become the very best, hope I earn it in the future.

[–] Artisian@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I do think "StopAntisemitism" deserves being in the title; it's a particularly loud group, not particularly representative of Israel the government (or jewish folks).

Just an absolutely abhorent organization, which deserves to be despised. No good work, just a racist organization focused on directing other racists (and actual antisemites!) away from real problems.

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Lol what? It is definitely representative of Israeli leadership since it's creation

[–] Artisian@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (1 children)

I would love this source: do they receive substantial funding, infrastructure and facilities, or personnel explicitly from Israel? What is their explicit tie to the government?

AFAIK (and I would really like to be wrong), this is a passion project by some absolutely terrible grifters.

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

You don't have to be payed by an government to be representative of it . Every single Israel state representatives and defender use the argument of antisemitism to refer to anybody who has the least amount of criticism of Israel and even humanizing Palestinians kids like Rachel did

[–] Artisian@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (2 children)

I do not endorse the policy of "your group/organization is represented by all people who claim to advocate for it". I do not want leftism, Palestine, the US, democracy, lemmy, or any other organization to be judged on this basis. So I must ask for a more direct tie, if there are any.

[–] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Zionism however is not a broad ideology. It is specific to the use of violence to create hatred that makes coexistence impossible, in order to secure territory for a jewish-supremacist ethnostate.

[–] Artisian@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

The argument here being that stopantisemitism is zionist and thus pro Israel? Sure. I still think a better title would name the organization. What's the argument for the vague and not specific title?

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago (10 children)

Israel entire history is about surrounding countries hating them for antisemitism and security concern bullshit and nobody talked about people , I am talking about state policies that rarely represent the people of a country and this dumb organization use the same exact strategy. I don't know why it's hard for you to understand such single logic
