The harder they push their pro-Israel agenda, the more anti-Israel everyone is going to get.

You can't bully us into supporting a genocidal regime.

My fucking brain is so fried.

Both my parents were in World War II. They fought against fascism. I was brought up to feel for what happened to the Jews during that war. Now all I see is that they seem to be being worse than the actual Nazis.

Do not conflate Jewish people with Israel

That is a very important distinction

Yeah, nah.

The only people who win when you conflate Israel with all Jewish people are Zionists and Neo-Nazis.

What Israel is doing is very much Nazi like. But saying such will get you banned on Mastodon.social, and probably prosecuted in places like Germany.

I have a feeling they can. If all discourse over social media is anti Palestine and no one can refute it, I give it 10 years max before it would just be a frothing hate for Palestinians with a significant amount of the population.

They are already trying to do this and failing miserably at it. Censorship itself is an admission of guilt and is something that people are really starting to understand. That's basically the point of my original comment: the harder they try to stop dissent, the more guilty they look.

Information can also be spread offline.

This is why the Fediverse and VPNs/Tor etc. are so important.
