For context:
This is a MoG post about a hexbear comment from 7 months ago complaining about the evocation of Charlie Hebdo against the french
A top comment asks "why so mad against french?", and the OP (the main mod and poster of MoG) suggests it's because we "hate france's freedom of speech and their 'anti-islam stance'". Declines to share a link or context to the comment
Out of curiosity I went looking for the context to that comment, and discovered that it was in reaction to a wildly Islamophobic cartoon making a joke about Gazan's starving during the month of ramadan [linky] [CW: Racism, Islamophobia, genocide]:
The mod then goes to great length to avoid commenting on the racist context of the post, as well as any definitive statement acknowledging the Palestinian Genocide or the culpability of Israel and the IOF. Tries to whatabout China, Russia, and Iran
Turns out libs actually do practice critical support, but instead of critically supporting AES projects they support any state crusading against muslims.
The French govt.’s means of harassing antifascists, its colonizations in Afrasia along with the Americas, its agreements with Fascist Italy, agreements with the Third Reich, its businessmen’s willing collaboration with the Axis, its willingness to commit antisemitic atrocities, the continuation of Axis elements post‐1945, its present negligence towards refugees (of colour), its complicity in supporting the Zionist entity: all of these phenomena make somebody’s disdain for France slightly easier to understand. The fact that many ordinary French adults also voted for the alt‐right makes the hatred a little easier to understand as well.
The point here is not to justify Francomisia. Whatever one thinks of it, one must first understand it in order to affect it. There are plenty of ways that French adults can reduce Francomisia without either resorting to self‐harm or scolding those who loathe them.
Myself, I can agree that white‐bashing statements like ‘UNLIMITED GENOCIDE ON HONKIES NOW’ do become depressing after reading or hearing them so many times, but ultimately it’s just a mouse screaming into a void: it is rare for anybody to assault somebody else for being a white gentile, and even when it does occasionally happen the authorities tend to be extremely unforgiving. So I have bigger things to worry about. I’m part French myself (whoop‐de‐doo) and I tend to shrug off anti‐French remarks since I’m already depressed. Even if somebody hating whites really agitated me, I don’t see how scolding or mocking that person would fix anything.
On a minor note, I think that the original poster misspelt the title. France is not ‘pro‐Islam’.
Thank you comrade, I fixed it (kinda)
Goat in this case stands for genocidaire of all time
