Why Judaism lmaooo

Why not Larp as a full Catholic or something else that'll be more supportive abroad and to the deranged far-right constituents. Why Judaism?????

Looking at his super~~villain~~hero costume, he does not consider half-measures.

Pope called Israel a terrorist state. Secifically he called the Israel-Palestine war and Israel's acts in Gaza terrorism

although he did make clear that he hopes the Israeli and Palestinian people can live in peace

no, now being a zionist is part of the right for some reason

[–] GrainEater@lemmygrad.ml 25 points 2 years ago (1 children)

"The right" as in right-wing? Zionism is inherently far-right

[–] sovietsnake@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (4 children)

yes of course, but i mean people in the right who traditionally hate jews, for some reason are zionists now

yesterday i came across some stupid right winger in my city who knows a friend of mine and my friend told him he went to see roger waters and he said something like waters is being an antisemite and i swear i've heard that fuck say shit about jews a few times in the past

On the contrary, zionism is a deeply antisemitic projet. The British Empire was so happy to help colonizing Palestine because it would mean all European Jews could leave. The project is that instead of fixing prejudice against Jews in Europe, they want them to have a state so they can go to that place, abandoning their real roots and lifestyle. Part of the answer to Zionism is actually to destroy anti-Semitism at home so that no one will urge Jewish people to abandon their real land and people, which is whatever nation and community they were raised to.

[–] GrainEater@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

do you think most modern anti-Jewish people are actually aware that "Israel" is also anti-Jewish?

[–] lil_tank@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No because it takes colonial/class analysis which basic antisemites are totally oblivious too. Though historically, rich and powerful antisemites had interests in investing in the colonial project. And most importantly, a genuine Jewish person supporting Zionism is only harming their own people by legitimising their alienation from their real land

[–] GrainEater@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 years ago

agreed, that's why I think there's some mental gymnastics required for most of them to justify being pro-"Israel"

[–] GrainEater@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

ah, I see; there's definitely some cognitive dissonance involved for a lot of anti-Jewish people who support "Israel" (aside from those who realized that "Israel" is only using Judaism as an excuse, but I don't think there are many of them among that crowd), but there's also the bizarre belief among some anti-Jewish Christians that "Israel" will somehow trigger the second coming of Jesus (I don't remember what the argument was), condemning all non-Christians to hell

[–] REEEEvolution@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The Death Cult logic is as followes. When all jews are back in Israel, they'll build another temple. Armageddon ensues (they'll see it as big war of muslims vs. jews) can the death cultists rise to heaven. Completely batshit insane.

[–] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Another factor here is, people on the far right like ethno-states. They want their own ethnostate and they would also like Jews to go away, so it's a win-win for them. They get to point to a modern ethnostate as a model (see Zelensky talking about Israel being the model for Ukraine's future) and whitewash their own antisemitism through their support for zionism.

it's because they hate Jews they are Zionists. They want the Jews gone

I'm honestly speechless. I was actually sure this was an onion article or something.

[–] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 24 points 2 years ago

Holy shit he actually beat our President in the cucking Olympics.

[–] Ronin_5@lemmygrad.ml 23 points 2 years ago

This is the most cringe thing I’ve read in a while.

You don’t have to convert to be a Zionist.

[–] usernamesaredifficul@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago (1 children)

that's a very fast conversion isn't it a whole process or did he start earlier
