    I’m sure “death to the IDF” is what some people have issues with rather than “free Palestine”

    chanting death for any group idendity en mass will always be controversial, even if it’s for Nazis

      I guarantee you can find droves of zionists that say “free Palestine” implies the destruction of Israel and is therefore antisemitic.

        Anyone who thinks those statements are one and the same is delusional and not even worth talking to.

        If someone can prove to me they’re not a rational human they lose my interest
