Is it wrong how I’m repeatedly relating Jews to discussions on Palestine? (lemmygrad.ml)

Some of you have likely noticed that I have a tendency to relate a Palestinian situation directly to Jews somehow, and I’ll be honest, I feel kind of weird doing it because proportionately speaking the Palestinian gentiles are suffering more than the Jewish citizens. I guess that it would be like repeatedly talking about Italians (e.g. Antonio Gramsci) while the Fascists were atrociously assaulting Africans.

Should I feel guilty? I don’t know… maybe I shouldn’t feel guilty. I mean, since a lot of Zionists like to focus on Jews when discussing Palestine and whatnot, maybe it’s important to have somebody doing that albeit from the opposite end of the spectrum, if that makes sense. I certainly don’t want to overshadow discussions on Palestinians, nor am I going to pretend that the suffering that they and Jews face is somehow equal, but given how many like to justify or overlook Zionist atrocities by centering the subject on Jews, maybe it’s important to have a kind of counterbalance to that.

I went and checked and the only evidence of sexual abuse is that video of the girl in the tender, Shani Louk,

There is no evidence Shani Louk was sexually assaulted and anyone who says so is telling me they've never been to a rave without telling me they've never been. It's not out of the ordinary for women at raves to dress (or underdress) like this. It's possible she was changing clothes too when the firefight started.

In the video of the pickup truck nobody gives a fuck about her, except one guy that walks up and spits on her. And in that moment, considering what both the guard and the guy on the side have lived in Gaza, their shared life experience, yeah, I don't blame the guard on the pickup for not giving a fuck that someone would spit on a Zionist. They also brought her to a hospital in Gaza so the video likely shows them transporting her.

But no evidence of her being sexually assaulted, being underdressed is not an indicator.

In any case thank you for clarifying some stuff.

That's a reasonable explanation, cheers for taking the time and hearing me out
