Sounds like religion is responsible for a lot of the worlds problems
@Pressure with the much needed commentary on why he thinks we should stop focusing on Israel/Gaza in the thread with the specific focus on Israel/Gaza that he entered knowingly.I've been in three different countries since this began and this shyt really hasn't been a part of the daily discourse anywhere.
Y'all are laser focused on it online, but this shyt ain't top of mind for folks like that.
I'd recommend some of yall get some air.
You're right that the push into Palestine isn't necessarily motivated by white supremacy, but the history of Zionism is intertwined with white supremacy. I've talked about this before in this thread. It is more of a sub issue of the current Palestinian land grab, but it can't be disentangled from Zionism. Even Judaism is a driving force is kind of a wishy washy premise. It's a far right government taking land by conquest under the veil of religion. I'm not trying to go into it again, but it's just a typical fascist government which has created a national identity around Judaism as their in-group.
Here's an interesting Twitter thread about it from a Mizrahi/Arab Jew.
....
Also, the Likud party who has been driving Israel's government has been for decades forming links with other far right and fascistic governments, as well as full blown antisemites. I don't think the comparisons to Nazi are all that ridiculous.
I tend to agree with you regarding how we use the term in an America/Western concept. Saying that, Pale skin Jews in Israel do discriminate against non-pale skin Jews. They may not consider themselves white, but not all Jews are the same in their eyes.It's my bad, I didn't express myself correctly :
I have no doubt that zionism is an ethno-nationalism, that's how I qualified it myself in my first post in this thread.
What I disagree with is to tie their ideology and identity with white supremacy which to me is lazy. Do Jews even consider themselves white ? Do white supremacists consider Jews their own ? Were all historical examples of expansionism/colonialism under white supremacy ?
To me, zionism is just "jewish/judaist supremacy" in the sense they feel their religion and/or their ethnicity are superior. The fact that Jews hold a specific place in Christianity also give them some excuse to think so. Zionists didnt choose Palestine to emigrate because there were Arabs but because it was supposedly the land of Zion which is a biblical thing.
I mainly think WS is too easy a catch all because I think we agree mostly on the matter, just disagree on the terminology
Zionists discriminate on ethnicity as well, I agree with this, but I don't think this discrimination fall under WS mainly because WS don't fukk with them at all. There's a reason why Europeans tried to exterminate them.
Regarding Likud, all far right parties/organizations in the world tend to link up with each other because their goal of ethnic/religious/socio-economic... purity tend to align.
I remember watching a Kemi Seba documentary where he had a talk alongside neo-nazis because they both agree that they needed to work together towards a society that were segregated.
Similarly during WWII, the Grand Mufti met with Hitler several times as he was converging with him towards an anti-communist/west/jewish Middle East.
Aligning with nazis don't make them nazis themselves, just temporary partners towards a common ultra-nationalistic/racist goal.
You're saying pretty much the same thing I said in here a couple weeks ago.It's my bad, I didn't express myself correctly :

I agree with this as well. Israel is a fascist state and the reason why some in this thread, and many western elected officials won’t admit that is because their nations did it too.You're saying pretty much the same thing I said in here a couple weeks ago.
Not to repeat myself, but I agree with your premise, I just think white supremacy is worth mentioning in regards to Zionism.
Maybe it's my personal opinion, but I don't buy the religion angle. Obviously they're Jewish, but that's just their unifying identity. I don't really see any point in history where it seems like Israel was legitimately being compelled by their religion. It just seems like a veneer they put on their fascist project. If you look into what makes a fascist government, Israel checks a lot of the boxes. They're following a roadmap that most fascist governments have taken in the past. Their religious identity doesn't set them apart, it's just their chosen in-group identity for their brand of fascism. It's about power and domination more than anything, IMO.
I didn't say they were Nazis, just that the comparison is apt. Like you said, aligning goals and all that.
This reads like the sort of shyt that COINTELPRO would have written. I've never seen a more obvious hit piece in a major paper.
Not only do the accuse her of antisemitism, they basically write that she only supports Palestine because she's autistic and has no friends.
