I genuinely thought this was hyperbolic satire.
EDIT: Outlet has edited headline since time of posting.
Please fix the title.

Aw! It’s Satan gray! No wait, its pure evil blue, its a trump!. Nah! If you look closely you’ll notice all the buildings belonged to poor defenseless people. So it’s probably a rich evil asshole!
Ethnic Genocide is now fully Normalized in Israel.
In some ways this is actually beyond Nazi Germany, were the actual perpetrators of the genocide did not make a public show of their murdering of the people they saw as untermenschen.
This kind of thing is a pretty good indication that there is far broader acceptance (glee, even) amongst the Israeli population for Genocide than there was amongst the German population in Nazi Germany.
I wonder what if nazi germany had access to social media, recommendation algorithms, bots, etc… influencing masses has never been this easy in history
From what I’ve heard the extreme racism is generalized in the Mainstream Press in Israel, so I’m not sure that it’s the Social Media that’s making Genocide along ethnic lines be more broadly accepted there than it was in Nazi Germany.
That said, the fables in Israel around “The Jewish People” and its identity with the Palestinians as “antagonists”, have been spun for far longer and the antagonism has been going on for far longer (since the creation of the state of Israel) than the ones in Nazi Germany with Jews as “antagonist”, so maybe the much longer time (about 70 years) during which Israelis have been indoctrinated about their own ethnic superiority and the “antagonism” of Palestinians in Israel compared to the length of the similar indoctrination of the population in Nazi Germany, is the main cause for the more broad acceptance of Genocide amongst the populus in Israel than in Nazi Germany.
If you’ve grown up hearing about how you’re part of a superior people (“God’s chosen people”) and Palestinians are The Enemy who hate you and want you dead, and your parents too grew up like that, you’re probably far, far, more likely to be an extreme racist that trully believes themselves to be inherently superior and that Palestinians as not really human like themselves - hence having zero empathy for the suffering of Palestinians and maybe even relishing in it - than somebody who has only been exposed to similar shit for a decade or two.
The world isn’t real. This is simply too ridiculous to have happened. I have been in a coma for the last six years and this is all just a weird fantasy playing out in my mind.

Headline was inaccurate - they didn’t bomb a place for a gender reveal. Instead they bombed a place that produced blue smoke for some other reason and joked about how it resembling a gender reveal. That’s…not better but it’s an important distinction - one is blowing shit up to announce it’s a boy and the other is blowing shit up to blow shit up and then joking about the color of the smoke.
I had a concussion in 2008 and I’m wondering if I didn’t wake up from it and any day now I’ll wake up in spring 2008.
shakes you vigorously
“Wake the fuck up and take us with you!”
“I’m tired of being a figment of this dickhead’s imagination!”
that’s a weird way to spell “israeli soldiers commit a war crime”

At least we know it’s a boy!
Yay then we can mutilate its genitalia!
I don’t understand how someone becomes such a shit human capable of doing something like this.
because they are used to have any and all actions justified by the world and any criticism flagged as “anti-semitism”
They are raised on racial supremacy and exceptionalism stories. They are the ultimate filthy racists. They are pretty open about ejecting every non-jewish person from Israel, and killing anyone who has anything they want. They’d happily launch nuclear weapons too, they couldnt care less if it harms lands and people outside Israel.

Ordinary people do fucked up shit when fucked up shit becomes ordinary.
It was more of an exasperated/incredulous statement but appreciate the insights nonetheless
I watched Full Metal Jacket today and I feel like it does an excellent job of explaining how and why people become psychos in war zones.
In short: cognitive dissonance-reducing beliefs.
Their depravity has no limits
And people wonder why I’m such a cynical, miserable fucking Eeyore all the time. Fuck humans so fucking much. Wretched creatures we are.
fuck humans
no, fuck colonizers
it’s a very specific group of humans who are doing this awful stuff
No, fuck humans. Until we as a species collectively say capitalism can’t exist anymore and reject it, then fuck humans.

Yup.
You would need to be entirely devoid of any semblance of humanity to even conceive of this idea, right?
How do you want to celebrate the joy of a new child? Oh, I don’t know, how about we make a light of ethnic cleansing and genocide.
Fucking ghouls
A lot of times soldiers when they come back from war have a lot of post-traumatic stress and they end up drinking a lot and they have a high suicide rate. So when the war ends it really doesn’t. They just bring it back home. And Israel is on the verge of a civil war. So all the mistakes of that society will come back and blow up in their face. We just have to be patient. I really question if the state of Israel is going to last. I mean, a lot of people in the United States despise Israel, and they will isolate themselves from the rest of the world and be notoriously known as terrible tourist. So they’ll be discriminated against and shunned. Justice will be served eventually. The United States really at the end of the day is just using them as a proxy. They think they’re controlling us, but we are using them to control our population for our imperialist endeavors. And just like Ukraine, we’ll throw them in the gutter, because these are all just dildos of empire. What you do overseas will come back to you and me. The imperialist boomerang effect. We just live in dystopic times and we just have to realize that the world we live in is not the same and so our likes and dislikes need to change. Our habits, our patterns, our hobbies. You name it. We’ve got to start thinking locally. Stop giving corporations money, get a hobby, be productive, stuff like that.
“Won’t somebody think of the poor genocidal murderers!?”
Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!
I’m decently sure they don’t have the self awareness to even say that. The IDF just believes they’re the good guys
They are well aware they are doing evil, but they plan to stop at some point and just forget it ever happened. They will bury the history and whats left, they will each pretend they never personally supported. Did you see the new marvel movie? “We all did some bad things, those were some dark dark times, but whats important now is that we stand together and protect the people”
And while they were at it they turned captain america into a white guy again (and only ever mention previous cptn ameria being steve rogers), and the “new avengers” has 3 russian heros in it, each of which has no moral compass. Thats after they tried to title the last Avengers movie, “A new world order”, and spend 15 minutes of it on a backstory of “sadaf” and israeli superhero protecting the motherland from terrorists bent on destruction and killing of innocents.
I’m not kidding. They arent particularly subtle about any of it. They are practically announcing their propoganda and sales pitch on it now. And we’ll lick it right up too.
The gender is genocide.
They’re creating exciting new hate crimes, in this case gendercide
