Why wouldn't it be ok to criticize Israel?
Are you worried about the puppet masters that control the world? That's an interesting implication, isn't it?
Or are you worried someone might call you out for being antisemitic for confusing your criticism of Israel with criticism of Jews. Why ever would someone do that, It's not like you're claiming all Hebrews don't care about genocide... oh wait that's exactly what you did, isn't it, OP?
"It's ok to criticze Israel" has created a permission structure to be antisemitic which you're exploiting.
Because Israel puts a great deal of effort to conflate opposition to Israel with antisemitism.
So you're going with the Jewish puppet masters are gonna make you look bad?
It may surprise you to learn that I'm neither Israeli nor a Jew. Just read enough history to see the similarities between what's being normalized now and things like the Protocols of the Elders of Zion being normalized in the past. You're following the exact same patterns from a century ago.
... no?
The fuck?
Sorry for acknowledging that an ethnostate has a propaganda arm?
Why would that surprise me?
Good old dog whistles, eh? We all know what you're saying but when called out, it's always "whatever do you mean?"
Same tactics the MAGAs use.
Do you acknowledge that Hamas and Iran have propaganda arms or do you think it's only Jews that do propaganda?
You're chasing a ghost, and I'm thinking intentionally at this point.
Of fucking course Hamas and Iran have propaganda arms.
