Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

I call it the "boy who cried wolf" effect. There's the old fable of the boy who cries wolf, gets the whole village to come out, he laughs at them, etc. They go back into their homes. He does this so many times they stop believing him. Then he gets mauled to death when a wolf really shows up. Of course that's not how wolves behave, blah blah blah but you get the point.
It's not really a good take on it because it's not like Jewish people in general listen to this shit, it's literally just zionist
When the wolves come it's not the state of Israel that gets devoured, it's the rest of the normal people that have had their terms misused that do
yeah, you're right, it's not a good analogy. I can't think of a better one though.
It's the boy who cried wolf except he's doing it to a village actively being devoured by wolves, also the boy brought the wolves into the village
