"This genocide and other genocides are being enabled and fueled by our own governments, our institutions, our media, and companies. It is our responsibility to end that complicity… to use our privileges, our platforms, to take a stance against this, that is in every way unjustifiable,” Thunberg asserted.
“I will never, ever comprehend how humans can be so evil that you would deliberately starve millions of people living trapped under an illegal siege as a continuation of decades and decades of suffocating oppression, apartheid, occupation,” she added.
She is right! Please focus on the victims and the actual perpetrators - the Israeli government and their army. NOT random jewish people. It’s so maddening to see fellow leftists get sucked into antisemitism because they can’t hold two ideas in their head like “The genocide in Gaza is wrong.” as well as “Genociding Israel would be wrong”. We are better than this goddammit!
What I have seen is the government saying it is antisemitic to judge their actions. Sadly some of the israeli population reacts the same.
That’s always been their cover. Back 20+ years ago when I was protesting Israel’s actions, I got called antisemitic so often, I finally stopped expressing opinions on it.
Yes what makes this different. Israel has been doing this kind of shit for decades and nobody cared. I guess it wasn’t as public and they might be killing more publicly now.
Nobody’s calling to genocide israelis. I’m advocating for the end of Israel as a state and an agrarian reform.
They can stay if they pay rents lmao
The UK just had a high profile synagogue attack on Yom Kippur. Not defending Israel, but a lot of the diasporia are being victimized because of the war.
Violence against both jews and muslims increased but they want you to only care about opposing hate against only one side. The end of occupation is the only solution
Victimised by who? The Islamic state is an Israeli puppet. They’re friend with Syria now haven’t you heard?
by other people
Right absolutely nobody is calling for that.

Also nobody is upvoting that either.
Ah yeah I guess we genocided serbia when they killed bosniac.
Attacking a country that’s committing genocide is the morale thing to do dumbass. Do you think we genocided Germans during ww2?
Did you glass Serbia or Germany, killing everyone? Chill out, your anger affects your reading comprehension apparently.
Some of the worst Zionists aren’t even Jewish.
Clearly not.
Here’s that droopy defeatist again. Everyone else but sad-socks here: look past, and forward, we can succeed in making change!
Eh the way the world has gone when I hear someone is religious any religion I now think their a piece of shit.
See I don’t know if you are being purposefully obtuse or maybe you really don’t know. The Jewish faith and the Jewish ethnic group are two things that don’t have to overlap.
