      I stick to this instance, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is another person calling anyone who doesn’t blindly support Israeli genocide efforts antisemitic.

        Which is not the case in my case. And by the way, by assuming that I

        blindly support Israeli genocide efforts

        shows which side of the scale are you on.

            It’s antisemitic to hate jews. It’s a patriotic duty to hate zionists. Just gotta be specific about it.

                I deny Israel has any right to exist where populations have already been established. There’s a whole mess of desert they are 100% free to build whatever they want on. Israel has absolutely no right whatsoever to claim, occupy, or destroy any dwelling, home, or property that was built or maintained by anyone in the area of conflict anytime in the last 40 years.

                Is that specific enough for you?

                  That is indeed really specific, thank you.

                  So you would support a two state solution based on the 1947/48 suggested borders?

      Not my experience. If you’re talking about Israel a lot of people are getting really fast really mad. If you try to talk rational about other states people stay mostly calm. I would call this behaviour a double-standard because of antisemitism. There’s no rational reason why people focus so much about this little state.

        I disagree with authoritarians and leninists vehemently. However. It’s the way many of them are speaking about Israel right now is not at all that different from how they speak about the United States in general. The major differentiating factor is that Israel is performing a new fuck up on the world stage live for all to view. Very much current events and on everyone’s lips right now. America has a huge back catalog of it. But Israel is not getting treated anymore harsher or hypocritically by them than places like the United States Etc.

        Sorry I’m having a moment. In your experience Lemmy.ml does not crack down on racists in a hard manner? Because a lot of the anger towards Israel comes from an antisemitic place since other states don’t get criticized so harshly?

        It sounds believable since it would be pretty hard to differentiate why exactly someone is reacting in a harsh manner and ban them accordingly. Just my brain is refusing to parse words atm

      Unfortunately, this does not seem to be the case, as the comments of lemmy.ml users here show.

        Could really use some citations of .ml being anti semitic
