The song is pretty far removed from reason and they conflate a lot of unrelated stuff, but there are some issues that they rightfully address: people who openly show their Jewishness in Europe are risking being attacked. Attacking someone who wears a Kippa or torching synagogues is not critiquing Israel but it does happen and perpetrators justify it with pro Palestinian stances.
i'm not saying it doesn't happen but it's massively over exaggerated by the media, and the inverse islamophobia that's more prevalent and structural throughout society gets ignored. Our society isn't systematically committing genocide against jews, it's doing it against muslims. Yet the conversation is about jews being the victims still, it's a distraction ploy when used in the current discourse
You don't think that American society is perpetrating a genocide against Palestinians? You don't believe they've spent the last 4 decades displacing tens of millions in the middle east and killing millions? When an imperialist society enacts modern warfare consistently on people of the same ethnicity, it's clear the people of that society are racist towards that group and don't consider them humans. They are fine killing them by the millions to achieve their aims.
Americans were the same way about asian people post-WW2, killing millions in Asia without a single twitch of guilt. They would never do this to white people. You can say they aren't trying to exterminate the people, but I don't see much difference between that and caring so little that you are wantonly slaughtering people by the millions. It's the same end result, it's the same white supremacism, it's the same expansionary imperialist engine.
Denying the murder of several millions of Muslims by the US and its allies during the War on Terror and the displacement and systematic starvation of 2 million people in Gaza, all to defend a bunch of misogynist, transphobic, pro-cop wrecker whack MCs from Germany. How low can you sink, mfer?
In a way, it’s kind of both.
Nah this is stupid this entire line of argument is misplaced
Can you provide evidence of neo-nazis who actually justify their antisemitism as being pro-Palestine? Anti-jewish violence from fascists has been a constant throughout the years, including years where Israel/Palestine has gotten much less attention, and to this date the only people I have never seen an actual example of what you describe. I have heard the claim a million times from zionists, though.
There you go. This is at a neo nazi housing project, the banner says "Israel is our misfortune".
That's... not antisemitic? You can tell me that the people who hung that banner are nazis, and you might be right, but being anti-zionist is not the same as being anti-semitic. Do you have any actual examples of what you're claiming happens?
I beg to differ. This is the original the Nazis' banner was referring to. Everyone in Germany knows that line and what it means, sorry I didn't add context
The incidence of islamophobic hate crimes in Germany has doubled since October, Germany's anti-BDS resolution and attacks on postcolonial studies are carbon copies of AfD proposals, accusations of antisemitism are used to silence Jewish people criticizing Israel and these chauvinist dinguses are opening up with nods to racial stereotypes about Arab communities in Berlin and lines directly attacking anti-racists. Literally not a single bar in that track was written in good faith.
Attacks on jews don't stop happening just because there are also attacks on muslims.
Are you really that dense? I'm not saying that antisemitism isn't a problem, i'm saying that you are defending a bunch of racist concern trolls who barely try to hide their islamophobia behind their fake concern for Jewish people. The entire song is one long litany of anti-muslim and anti-left thought terminating clichés.
