Pro-Palestine protesters chant ‘Gas the Jews’ outside Sydney Opera House
Pro-Palestine protesters chant ‘Gas the Jews’ outside Sydney Opera House
Group lights flares and chants anti-Semitic slogans in unverified footage of demonstration in Australia
Context: This happened 2 weeks ago. It was a small group of like 20 people in a protest of hundreds. The organiser of the protest condemned them, and asked the police for help removing them. The police declined to help.
The media keeps covering the like 20 antisemites and ignoring the hundreds of peaceful demonstrators, that the police tried to stop the demonstration going ahead at all, or that the Australian government is uncritically supporting the IDFs genocide.
Idiots, you can support Palestinian civilians and not say stupid shit like this.
Too bad a big chunk of the self-professed supporters don't actually give a shit about Palestinian civilians at all, they're just paying lip service because they want an excuse to hate on Jews.
They're outing themselves.
Please don't give the idiots a soap box. Supporting Palestinian right to life and territory doesn't mean you support the destruction of Jews or Israel.
Believe it or not, people can come together in peace when old racist rich fucks that want power, land, and money stay out of it.
I don't think burying this and pretending it didn't happen is helpful when Jews around the world are telling us right now that they are terrified and under attack
Yeah it is important for us to also condemn antisemitism and make very clear that the Jewish people and the Israeli government are not the same.
Yeah, like there was incidents of pro Palestinia people drawing stars of David on the doors of jews or throwing molotovs into Synagogues...
I think it does need to be acknowledged that there is a faction of people that absolutely do support the destruction of Israel and Jews. Hamas was elected, it should be remembered.
That absolutely does not mean that support for Palestinian statehood requires you to be opposed to Israel's existence, but advocates for peace should be very clear that this kind of rhetoric is absolutely not tolerated. And conversely, advocates for Israel must absolutely reject the people that would support the complete removal of Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank.
There are extremists on all sides, and genocidal rhetoric must not be tolerated, wherever it comes from.
Supporting Palestinian right to life and territory doesn’t mean you support the destruction of Jews or Israel.
True, but these protesters and Hamas clearly support that. Hamas was elected as the government of Gaza last time they had an election and have yet to be deposed. Palestinians who support the destruction of Jews and Israel run Gaza.
Over 50% of the population of Gaza wasn't born when Hamas was elected. They've never had a choice on their leadership, and it's a shame they didn't take any opportunities to change the leadership before this.
All Evidence For the Last 70 Years from the PLO to, Fatah, Hezbollah, PIJ, and Hamas, to the contrary, naturally, or course
The PLO and Fatah both recognise the state of Israel and its right to exist, have given up armed struggle, and signed the Oslo Accords with Israel, accepting a peaceful political pathway to a two state solution.
Uneducated idiots that never visited a concentration camp and never saw the scratch marks in the walls in the "showers".
For the 👇 voters: you're also a Nazi.
I have to wonder how much of these are cherry picked. I don't know a single pro palestine person who is also a nazi. I think a lot of the "pro palestinian rights = nazi" stuff is really forced and not representative of even .1% of pro palestine people. I mean there was that one huge story of some people at a pro palestine rally with a nazi flag and it turned out to have been photo-shopped

People are saying it even on Lemmy. I almost would prefer to believe it's people astroturfing absurd positions to hurt Palestine... But I suspect not.
JIDF is a real thing. As is act.Il.
There are absolutely paid commenters posting extremely biased comments across all of social media
With friends like these who needs enemies
Fuck that, they are not our friends
Fucking scum
I feel like whether this is true or not, the fact that all these words are starting to show up together again means that we're probably about to all start killing each other again. Edit: well, we already have. But like a lot again. Like idk if there's gonna be any people left, a lot. Humans have been shown to be pretty tenacious, so I'm really hoping this is just part of the process. But it seems like every time we do this it's so much more widespread and so many more people die. I just wish everybody would stop caring about who's wrong and who's right and just breathe and ask themselves how we're going to get out of the next few decades with the least people dead before their time.
