There is something very sick about an ethnostate crying antisemitism. These people have more in common with the Nazis that did genocide against the Jews than the actual Jews. Yet they'll use their suffering as a shield. It's messed up.
Reactionaries using the language of the oppressed to claim they're the real victims is very common. :(
This anti-German rhetoric is getting out of hand!
-Adolf Hitler
He literally did say that. Nazis were going on about reverse racism generations before any CHUD.
Frankly I think everyone should be much more racist against germans
One thing I’ve been thinking of recently is the parallel between how much both Israel and Nazi Germany have and had a mythos of being victims as a major part of their identity. I will need to investigate other fascist societies to see if this is a common trend among them or if this is just coincidence
Fascists are always self-victimizing, it's always the Jews or the British capitalists (for Italy) or the immigrants and/or Muslims (modern western fascists) that are supposedly attacking the homeland and giving a basis for revanchism.
It's a silly reference, but I remember Jacob Geller's video on the ideology of Call of Duty, where he does a decent job of demonstrating how it so centers on a politics of aggrievement by foreign enemies necessitating a response of brutal violence by the US, where all the atrocities committed by the latter are the "hard choices" and "dirty work" needed to protect the country.

It’s the kind of thing that if Israel didn’t exist and you read this in a book you would think the writer is being heavy handed and unrealistic
