      Nope, fascism should be left to the professionals. Only experienced people should be implementing Final Solutions.

        It’s never properly final, you know? It’s always some glib schmuck who does a bodge and scarper

        Edit: This one’s not very funny, tend to agree with the downvoters. I’ll workshop it.

        One of my favorite things about Lemmy is how I can say something blatantly silly and most people will laugh at me, as intended, but a good half will be like “yeah but seriously,” because there’s nothing I can say these days that is so silly someone hasn’t said it with complete sincerity.

          While I get your point and completely agree, I can see how you might have hit a nerve, what with fascism being on the rise across the world.

          Half of the American major parties and the ruling parties of India, Russia, Israel, Hungary, Belarus, Italy and other countries being fascist is not nothing…

          I’m with you on the silliness. I don’t really mean that Israel should bottle all of fascism. Their people don’t need it either

          I always hated the /s myself, but it’s sadly become necessary in this day and age…

            When they are saying the quiet part out loud, when terrible things are taken as truth and amplified, yes, unfortunately we have to indicate that we think these things are insane and wrong.

            Yeah, sometime when the point is so exaggerate it seems to be sarcasm, the nutjob will out do that. Poe’s Law really is important these day.

          Nah, just been caught up in arguments with worse idiots than you have, it would seem 🤷

          As evidenced by the fact that the IDF are doing it, some people in the world are awful enough to think that it’s an entirely reasonable course of action and some of those people sometimes get into online arguments 🤷

          Comments below the article:

          Sounds scary but I have confidence in the Attorney General. If she okayed it, then I’m good.

          We’re at war! These protesters need to understand that it’s not time for their petty get-together and block the roads. It’s time for the big boys to march onwards to war. Block their roads, and get shot at your own discretion.

    For those wondering who the man in the picture is, here’s wikipedia:

    Itamar Ben-Gvir … is an Israeli lawyer and far-right politician who serves as the Minister of National Security. … Ben-Gvir, a settler in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, has faced charges of hate speech against Arabs and was known to have a portrait in his living room of Israeli-American terrorist Baruch Goldstein, who massacred 29 Palestinian Muslim worshipers and wounded 125 others in Hebron, in the 1994 Cave of the Patriarchs massacre. … He was also previously convicted of supporting a terrorist group known as Kach, which espoused Kahanism, an extremist religious Zionist ideology. … Under his leadership, the Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power), a party which espouses Kahanism and anti-Arabism, won six seats in the 2022 Israeli legislative election … He has called for the expulsion of Arab citizens of Israel who are not loyal to Israel. Ben Gvir is “widely known for his openly racist, anti-Arab views and activities” … led several visits to the Temple Mount as activist and member of Knesset, contentious marches through Jerusalem’s Old City Muslim Quarter, and set up an office in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood which witnessed several evictions of Palestinians. On 3 January 2023, he visited the Temple Mount where the al-Aqsa Mosque is located, spurring an international wave of criticism that labelled his visit purposely provocative. As a lawyer, he is known for defending Jewish radicals and terrorists on trial in Israel. … Prior to entering politics, he defended Jews spitting at Christians as a “an ancient Jewish custom”. … Ben-Gvir is married to Ayala Nimrodi… The couple has five children, and they live in the Israeli settlement of Kiryat Arba/Hebron, which is deemed illegal under international law, in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

      Always has been. No one spews sulfur against the Jews like a Zionist. You are either with the right wing ethnostate nationalists or you are an antisemite, specially if you are Jewish.
