I would like to invite, to the stage, all the Jews who were complaining that calling Israel's actions a genocide is diminishing the importance of the Holocaust

Netanyahu calls himself Hamas at Holocaust memorial.
Something something every accusation is a confession
why would you invite a war criminal to remember the holocaust?
Clearly he doesn't need reminding
It’s wasn’t the ethnic cleansing of Jews that was bad, it was the ethnic cleansing of Jews that was bad.
The more Israelis who wake up to this, the better.
This isn't the only genocide happening in the world, just the one with the most media attention. West Papua, Ukraine, Uyghurs in China, Sudan... The list goes on. Also, the West Papua Genocide has been going on for over 60 years now.
The more Israelis who wake up to this, the better.
This number is and has always been a rounding error. Better not count on it.
Albert Einstein's letter to the New York Times was spot on.
This was a pretty interesting read: https://archive.org/details/AlbertEinsteinLetterToTheNewYorkTimes.December41948
There was a point where many peace activists saw zionism as a good thing, but then the zionists chose a fascist leader. To be fair in the 1940s it might not have been clear yet that religious nationalism is bad and tends to lead to fascism. What's odd is that many still haven't figured this out yet.
This of course applies to Hamas as well, which is why there's not going to be peace in the middle east until there's a secular group in charge of things on at least one of the sides.
Most religious people don't understand that it'd also be bad if their religion was in charge.

RIP irony. Again.
Satire isn't just dead, reality is fucking its corpse in the middle of the street.
Satire must be done with tact and a directed purpose. Otherwise it just becomes another example of what not to do.

Just like Russia calling Ukrainians Nazis, while employing nazis
Ukraine does have units with neo-Nazi symbolic. Just not any further at that than Russia.
Every nation has nazis within their ranks. Killing and spreading suffering is a core part of being a nazi, so it's the perfect outlet for them.
