You know, Julius Streicher was executed for inciting violence against Jews, using racist caricatures to dehumanize them. Here, we see caricatures not too dissimilar to those found in Der Stürmer: an evil dark-skinned man with a big nose and beady-eyes. The only original thing here is how it dehumanizes his family as well, with his ugly, docile wife and children being strapped to him as a means to justify their deaths while also feign concern and empathy for them. Here is a more egregious example of something like that. It's not the only way Western media outlets have dehumanized Palestinians and rationalized the genocide taking place against them but it's sure as hell the one most on the nose in regards to Holocaust parallels.
Not bringing all this up for any particular reason
Ew, that example is somehow worse for me. Like the ugly ass boomer art is racist, no shit, but that weird corporate emoji artstyle hurts in a way that is difficult to define. It's like the racist boomer picture hurts my eyes, but that one hurts my soul.
To me, it's because that style is almost exclusively used by corporations to blanket the fact that they're forcing a (usually pro-corporate) perspective to a captive audience. So the subliminal message here based on how it's widely used says "here's how we want you to think" as opposed to the ugly boomer one just "trying to make a racist point"
Yeah, the boomer art is racist. You expect to be disappointed. But the corporate style is a lot more sinister
The human shield accusation stopped working for me when I was a teenager, decades ago. The so-called "adults in the room" are not impressing me with their intellect.
How are people shocked that a group fighting to liberate Gaza operates out of Gaza?
IT'S A FUCKING CONCENTRATION CAMP! IT'S BEEN UNDER SIEGE FOR ALMOST TWO DECADES! IT'S ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED PLACES ON EARTH! ALL PALESTINIAN RESISTANCE IS SELF-DEFENCE! FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU
Does anyone remember when the iof tied Palestinian children to their vehicles using them as human shields? Search engines are flooded with the latest news but I swear I remember that happening. Every accusation is a confession i swear
Ok so let's assume this actually is happening. Is the solution in a hostage situation to just go full rambo and murder everyone? I don't think that's part of the hostage protocoll.
