And thus the cycle starts to repeat. It seems an eternal problem that people can’t separate individuals and their leaders, which always ends up one side violently killing the other for the actions of the few.
Zionists do not represent all Jews, this needs repeating.
I can’t help but notice that your comment is highly upvoted, with one down vote at the time of writing. I also notice that whenever someone comments something like “Americans deserve Trump and everything that is happening to them” their comment is usually around 50 % downvoted.
Regardless of your opinion on whether a people can collectively be held responsible for the actions of the majority, it looks like a lot of Americans on this website need to reevaluate their own cognitive dissonance.
(Also what the fuck is up with the comment at the top of the chain. That is literally hate speech and could get you fined in my country).
Maybe you’re misunderstanding DarkCloud’s comment? DarkCloud is not saying Hitler was right. DarkCloud is saying the Israeli supreme court just ruled that Hitler was right, and saying that is completely fucked up. Which I think you agree with.
Sigh. This was already explained by someone else. It’s called cynical sarcasm, (or bitter sarcasm, rhetorical provocation, hyperbole, provocative irony, etc.) It’s meant to express outrage by drawing an extreme comparison, not agreement with it. The “just made” phrasing is part of that - they don’t actually think history was undone and revised, and its a bit disingenuous or outright obtuse to interpret it that way.
The Israeli supreme court just made Hitler retroactively correct and justified. Israeli Nazis are the worst.
No. Because Israel isn’t Jews.

I think that Israelis are fine with the genocide. so it’s fine to dislike Israeli citizens. Not all Jews are Israeli though.
So it’s just an Israel problem.
They vote for the shit. they are supporting the genocide.

The overwhelming majority of Israelis do support the genocide. Anywhere from 85-95% according to the polls.
Saying Jews are committing genocide in the name of Judaism is completely correct. But you’re also right that Israel doesn’t speak for all Jews.
Are you even listening to yourself?! A genocide is never “correct and justified”, which is the whole point of this post. Your comment makes me sick.
I think you need a lesson on recognizing cynical sarcasm.
There’s cynical sarcasm and there’s “I guess Hitler was right then ¯_(ツ)_/¯”. I’d say the latter is just fucked up.

But they didn’t say that the court ruled that Hitler was right, they said that the court made Hitler right. There’s a huge difference.
