On the other hand, we have people like Susan Sarandon and some actress from a horror movie franchise, and those that share their views. I happen to think there are billions of people across the globe who share their views / opinions, but your mileage may vary.
Having said that, can anyone explain why the actions of the former are not absolutely drowning out anything that can said about the actions of the latter? Like, why are we even taking about ANYONE other that Stu?
Because antisemitism is more significant threat at this point.
You’re not grounded in reality.
In the “chosen people” mindset, everything is subordinated to the priorities of the clan. Significance is defined by them and their priorities, regardless of relative magnitude.
It’s why over 8,000 innocent Palestinian women and children murdered by the IDF over the past 6+ weeks are not even deserving of a grain of salt’s worth of attention when the the more significant tragedy is embodied by the 1,200 who were killed on 10/7.
It's a war, and it was launched in retaliation for the terror attack. The US launched a couple wars for terror attacks of a similar scale, and I didn't hear anyone crying about Iraqi or Afghan civilians, and their governments weren't even part of the attack.
Is this really the analogy you want to go with? The US was attacked by Saudis, according to indestructible passports at least, and responded by starting wars all over the middle east, killing hundreds of thousands of people in a conflict that still rages today, while becoming a global pariah.
the problem is that when people are silent about US involvement abroad except for Israel, that does start to look questionable. especially the dumb fs posting about how Ukraine needs US tanks last year, and then forgetting about Ukraine (cause oops, now DC agrees we need to extricate ourselves) and wearing keffiyas this year to “Free Palestine.”
The problem is that the Arabic World and apparently DCUM is obsessed with Israel. Were there demonstrations when Assad gassed and murdered 500000 of his own people including 4,000 Palestinian refugees? Nope. It’s the killing of Arabs by Jews that gets their blood boiling, but Arab on Arab massacres are a ok.
I don't think TikTok was a big deal during the whole Syria thing. From what I remember, Facebook was claiming their platform helped the uprising in Syria then more media supported the dissidents....until they became jihad and ISIS groups. Then Syria disappeared from US news except for the random story about Russia leveling a city or Assad using chemical weapons.
Now TikTok beams all of the Hamas and Iranian propaganda into brains worldwide. Israel's intelligence failure was losing the propaganda war immediately after 10/7.
Perhaps you are right. But Hamas uploaded the videos of brutal rapes to social media. Yet all Women’s Rights organizations including the UN stayed silent on the brutalization of Israeli women. Everyone knows but prefers to ignore it or deny it. The director of, I believe Alberta University Rape Crisis center signed a letter which claimed that rapes of Israeli women did not occur. She was fired, thankfully. Even with Hamas spreading the videos or rapes and tortures from October 7, people still deny that these things occurred. There is a deeper cognizant dissonance that’s happening here. I don’t know what it is. I pray it’s not antisemitism.
I agree. There is something strange and disturbing going on in the way so many progressive left people refuse to acknowledge the degree or barbarity that happened on October 7. No matter how you spin it, hordes of Palestinians raped and brutally killed Israelis and did terrible things to children, all while shouting the name of Allah and kill all the Jews (note, not Israeli but Jews). Women were dragged back to Gaza and raped even more in front of cheering crowds.
At this point I have no sympathy for either Palestinians or their supporters worldwide. Because they are justifying pure evil.
-- not Israel, not Jewish, but intelligent to know something deeply morally wrong went on and the failure of both Muslims globally and the progressive dupes to condemn it is genuinely bothersome.
