Not for a few decades. Approximately 90 are hereditary seats for nobles, the rest are appointed (also given noble rank, but as far as I know it doesn't come with land holdings).

This person is a Nazi, if you look at the image they're fantasizing about killing someone with an Antifa jacket for spray painting a swastika on a cybertruck.

Democrats are so addicted to losing that everyone they touch becomes infected with it.

Logging in for the first time in 10 months to pay my respects to the power of the Etsy witches.

Israel legally prohibits Gaza from building any water infrastructure without a permit, which must be granted by Israel and almost never is. Additionally, the IDF routinely destroys infrastructure of all kinds in Gaza as a matter of deliberate policy.

Conflating Jews in Israel with Zionists.

Unfortunately, he does it in this very post.

When people talk about "jews" or "israelis" generally as perpetuating the murder of children, they are engaging in the blood libel trope.

Those two statements (with "jews" vs with "israelis") are in no way the same. The first is antisemitism, the second is objective fact and the policy of the Israeli state. To conflate the two is antisemitic, and also plays into Israeli propaganda that they are the representatives of Jews and Judaism.

Uses the word "first"

Does not describe indigenous genocide

Does not describe slavery

The Amerikkkan history understander has arrived.

I hate liberal politics. Israel does not have a "right to defend itself", colonies don't even have a right to exist. Every adult Israeli who does not oppose the state of Israel is complicit in the genocide of the Palestinian people.

This cannot be allowed to happen. If this happens and we stand by, we are all damned for eternity. Our children will hate us, and they'll be right.

Someone please explain how the settlers holding a music festival on stolen land right next to the giant ghetto their government routinely attempts to liquidate are "innocent civilians".

Swap "Israeli-Palestinian" with "European-Native American" and it suddenly becomes incredibly obvious to many more people what's wrong in this situation. It's convenient to only pay lip service to opposing colonialism in situations where the colonisation is functionally complete and your control will never be threatened.

You're right, there are only a few. However, I'm surprised and disappointed that there are any at all.

This thread is an embarrassment, I can't believe there are people on Hexbear handwringing about violence against settler civilians. Did Native Americans never kill colonizer civilians? Are we going to start condemning the Haitian revolutionaries?

Israelis are constantly pretending they live in fear of being killed by Palestinian "terrorists". Have they considered fucking leaving, which is an option the Palestinians don't even have? No Israeli children would be in a position to be killed in the fighting or held hostage if their colonizer parents hadn't put them there. These children are victims, but they're victims of their colonizer parents and colonizer politicians.

You want to talk about children being held hostage to ensure compliance from adults? How many Palestinian children are there in the open air prison of Gaza, where 2/3 of the population are under 25 years old?
