Literally a fucking expert on genocides...
It doesn't matter if you're a member of a fascists core group. If you disagree with them in any way you become an enemy
Everyone should be incredibly concerned when their political representatives demand 100% loyalty and attack anyone that disagrees with their actions and labels them an enemy.
A government that refuses to accept criticism from its own members is either facist or walking down that path
It's the same with that one rabbi who's been labeled antisemitic because he's against the genocide of Palestinians.
Edit: this dude:
Eg. the Canary Mission has labeled him as an antisemite who trivializes the Holocaust because he thinks that in Canada the genocide of First Nations people would be important to teach more about instead of focusing on the Holocaust
That reminds me of two orthodox Jewish guys who were arrested on charges of antisemitic hate, by the metropolitan police, for burning an Israeli flag.
Equating Israel with wider Jewish-ness is actaully antisemitic, unlike burning a flag. So, the only antisemitism there was conducted by the police. The met keeping up its proud tradition of institutional racism there.
These boys are going to get hauled up in front of a judge on antisemitism charges, only to be asked swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth
On the fucking Torah
Never heard of Canary Mission before, but they're quite an interesting covert Israeli operation.

Our country's government is an absolute sham that only benefits the wealthy, and needs to be torn down and rebuilt for the people..
I just want to be clear we mean being a member of the core group fascists identify with, not that the group is all fascists.
Here's an example because changing context might help:
I'm a white guy
But I'm not a white supremacist.
That doesn't stop me from being in their "core group" which is white people.
That doesn't mean every white person is a white supremacist. But if a white person speaks out against white supremacy, they'll hate you even though you're white.
Often they take that really hard. The KKK killed a lot of white people, in some areas all they killed was white people who disagreed with them, because no Black people could live there in the first place.
Its why people always need to speak out against that shit, even if you're not in a targeted group, if they ever cross your personal moral line and you speak out, you're immediately one of "them" and not "us".
And fascists always need a "them" so they'll keep moving people out of "us".
Yup. I'm just trying to provide context because accusing someone of associating all Jews with Israel has become a favorite argument of conservatives in their attempt to make us all look like anti-semites.
