Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I remember when the family separation/kids in cages story blew up during the first Trump administration, a woman defended her description of the detention centers as concentration camps by saying:

"Do we have to wait for an actual Holocaust to happen before we speak up?"

That stuck with me.

Watching the slow rollout of multiple genocides while the world does nothing (or supports them) has really pushed me over the edge. "Never again" was bullshit, the ruling class was never opposed to genocide. If anything they're in favour of it so long as it pads their portfolios.

The world has seen the mass slaughter of children and a significant portion supports it doomjak. You rightfully call it genocide and these ghouls will argue that it's "ethnic cleansing" (as if there's a difference) because Israelis aren't herding people into cattle cars.

CW: suicide

spoilerThis whole ordeal has caused me to start considering suicide in the future if/once things get really bad or beyond repair. The world has shown that it's never going to get better, that it'll likely be destroyed instead of improving in any tangible way. That things are only going to get worse, and there is no light at the end of the tunnel, except the one coming from the sun as it engulfs the Earth in a couple billion years, finally freeing whatever's left on it from the evils of the U.S. Israeli permanent ethno-supremacist empire.

It feels like we're in a story or setting that's written by a Fascist, and the Fascist wants the Nazis to win, and that's what they're writing. To try to oppose this is like characters in a story trying to oppose the will of the author. Any "victory" by leftists is only for the sake of building narrative tension before the Fascist author pulls a deus ex machina to have the Fascists win over and over again until the end of time.

CW: suicide/self harm

spoilerUnfortunately I definitely get what you're saying, I'd rather go out on my own terms than on theirs. I'm not suicidal (anymore) but if they're going to kill me anyway I may as well go down swinging.

That said there are a few bright spots out there, as dim and hard to find as they may be. And even if it is hopeless we still have to fight. I'm not doing the fascists' job for them and taking myself out, at least not without taking some of them with me

They act like nazis and speak like nazis. All the "stop anti-semitism" groups that don't speak out against israel can all go fuck themselves.

[–] porcupine@lemmygrad.ml 25 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A central premise of Zionism is that the Nazis were correct in their beliefs and actions, but misguided in some of who they targeted

[–] IttihadChe@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago

They even hate and look down on Jewish victims of the Holocaust for "being weak".

[–] Xenomorph@hexbear.net 50 points 3 days ago

Not fascists though, muslims and leftists on college campuses are the real nazis.

[–] P1d40n3@hexbear.net 35 points 3 days ago

How many more must die before this ends? A globally broadcast genocide...

[–] cypherpunks@lemmy.ml 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

that original tweet (archive) from February is now deleted; in case anyone wonders if it was because he reconsidered, no, 18 hours ago he reiterated it (archive).

[–] stink@lemmygrad.ml 25 points 3 days ago (3 children)

I wonder why this is 🤔🤔

[–] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 29 points 3 days ago

For those who were wondering he's absolutely doubling down

[–] Gucci_Minh@hexbear.net 23 points 3 days ago

Another lost page of mein kampf discovered

[–] jsomae@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago

There are many other languages it doesn't support, like canto. Idk why

[–] huf@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I wish the entire Gaza Strip for all its residents exactly what happened to us on 7.10- and double that.

werent most casualties because the IDF started shooting at their own?

[–] jsomae@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago

Double isn't even close to the amount of devastation in gaza already

[–] dragongloss@hexbear.net 14 points 3 days ago

Disgusting zionists.

[–] HoiPolloi@hexbear.net 12 points 3 days ago

I'm surprised the Israelis haven't called it sooner.
