    The meme is broadly generalizing Israel as a homogenic society that casually murders children on a regular basis and omits that Israel is in fact a diverse society. By doing so it reproduces the ancient antisemitic trope of ritual child murder and blood libel. Neo-Nazis and other racist antisemites would therefore love this meme. From an antifascist perspective this meme is absolutely unacceptable.

      Conflating Judaism and Zionism is antisemitism.

      1. Zionism originated from Christianity, has nothing to do with Judaism

      2. A lot of Judaism is flat out incompatible with Zionism

      3. The Nazis were huge supporters of Zionism

      4. Palestinians are semites too

      You are falling for fascist propaganda.

        Of course it is and I would never said otherwise.

        Zionism originated from Christianity, has nothing to do with Judaism

        Really? I was under the impression that Herzl was jewish, not christian but correct me if I am wrong.

        A lot of Judaism is flat out incompatible with Zionism

        But I know that Jews are not allowed to kill and steal (occupation is theft of land) by their own rules, the ultra-orthodox are particularly vocal about it.

        The Nazis were huge supporters of Zionism

        Sure but obviously for all the wrong reasons

        Palestinians are semites too

        Obviously, this is getting boring, tell me something I don know yawns

        You are falling for fascist propaganda.

        I am explicitly not taking sides in the conflict. I have solidarity for the civilian victims on both sides and criticize the atrocities commited by the IDF just as the atrocities commited by Hamas. Now I am curious, please elaborate how that equals falling for any propaganda.
