ngl, I have qualms about posting this here, so if it’s too contro, I’ll remove.
It’s absolutely amazing to me the lengths this administration will go to lick the boots of Israel—a country that has been actively carrying out a goddamn genocide since the 1940s. Zionists are the scum of the earth. They rival the Nazis.
Unfortunately boot licking Israel is a universal American quality. No single administration has a monopoly on it.
I can see how this is going to go. Someone will sue on free speech grounds, it will go to the supreme court. The Christian nationalist supremes will not only uphold this ruling, but take the opportunity to make burning the US flag no longer protected speech as well.
Did anyone read the article?
First, Quds News Network? That’s who I go to when I want to read about NY judge rulings. A more comprehensive article which also worries about the ruling is this one.
Second:
Purposefully yanking on an Israeli flag tied around a Jewish person’s neck is direct evidence of racial discrimination,” McFadden wrote.
Your free speech and ability to burn the Israeli flag is intact. Maybe keep your hands off other people, though.
It’s still a questionable ruling. The judge said that the flag is a “Jewish flag”. It’s not.
Yeah, I agree. But the article linked failed to cite any part of the ruling which would make it a crime to burn the flag. In fact, discrimination itself is not a crime until it involves some kind of business relationship.
I shouldn’t have to download and read the whole ruling to see if the claim made in the article is supported. If they’re going to quote the judge, they should take quotes that substantiate their conclusion.
At this point, I’m convinced Israel is attempting a soft coup on the US and are so far being successful.
For about 77 years now, yeah
There’s nothing onion-like about this article.
I submit that:
The burning of a piece of cloth being legally classified as racial discrimination is the epitome of onion.
Did you even read the article, or just the headline?
Yes.
You?Maybe you should explain it back to yourself.
lol. Maybe you can eli5, and allow me to destroy you.
Well, according to Gilme vs Gov 1937, you can’t burn the Nazi flag either… so technically incorrect
I tried finding that reference and im not seeing it. Can you give me a link?
These tankies will eat anything that compares US/Israel with Nazis. Of course it’s made up
The comparisons with Nazis are just and valid, despite the fact that many tankies agree.
‘National’.
The nation of Nazi Germany’s flag is literally called:
“Reich and National Flag”
The nation itself no longer exists of course, but it’s still a national flag.
Anyway, to the original point of the post, dang, those Americans are really doing some weird uncool stuff these days eh? Here’s hoping they can purge their internal fascism before it’s too late.
Alas, I suspect they’ll continue to lie down and let it happen, much as the Weimar Republic did :-(
Uh, Israeli isn’t a race. It’s an ethnicity. Whose payroll is this guy on?
I don’t know, I can’t ever remember saying I’m American when asked ethnicity.
Its a nationality. Do the Jews have a flag?
Is it even an ethnicity?
Nope, it’s an inhabitable place. Like Trump’s gaping asshole after letting Putin jump all the way up inside him and work him like a puppet.
You know what else is probably up Trump’s gaping asshole? The Trump-Epstein files. He should release those so he can fit more dictators up there.
I think if Putin’s entire body is in there, that would make Trump a fursuit.
AIPAC’s probably
Lmfao fuck that. Proud Jew here, and I’m going on Amazon right now to buy Israeli flags and lighters. Sic semper tyrannis, motherfucker.
This is a GREAT Ruling because STARVING CHILDREN TO DEATH and SHOWERING AID SEEKERS IN GUNFIRE are the Top Two Traits EVERY SINGLE JEW ON EARTH must Follow or they ARENT JEWISH!

We don’t hate their race; we hate their government.
People cannot cleave the two in their minds because in doing so it will make them forced to reckon with the support they have given such an evil government; both the “US” and “Israel.”
So they use playground logic and label “antisemitic” anything to do with zionism and its governmental form.
If you look into the history of Israel they’ve spent the entire time, and many billions, propagandising the entire Jewish diaspora to equate Israel with Judaism.
A significant portion of Jews simply don’t know how to differentiate Judaism from Israel themselves. As with all religion, it targets and brainwashes children, from birth.
