I was rooting for him until the last three words of the headline.

As best I can tell, the most racist zionists are usually American-born Israelis.

I do my best to always use the word Zionist before the word Israeli.

Israel's secularism is irrelevant to the overall racist ideology of Zionism that permeates Israeli society.

I'm not referring to powerless, mouth-breathing, NEETs who normally lurk forums.

But I'm referring to comments from actual members of the Israeli Knesset, public statements from people like the OP, printed editorials in mainstream publications, and modern Israeli celebrities.

When you read through the translations not meant for western audiences - the racism pops out disturbingly. It's such a part of their culture that they don't even notice it as such. Zionists really don't view people in the West Bank or Gaza as humans.

A few months ago I started using Google Translate to read what Israelis are saying amongst each other in their mainstream publications and forums.

My. God. Levels of entitlement and racism that would make a Klansman blush.

Sure, a lot of them want a cease-fire to get the hostages back ... and most don't like Netanyahu ... but the average Israeli Zionist is a racist monster.

Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.

Those silly commies don't understand that you have to bail out capitalists when they fail.

Empty threat is empty.

Oh! Well nevermind, then.

Please proceed.

More like: "My ancestors ate chickpeas ... therefore, that falafel is mine!"

If Biden disagreed with the decision to move the embassy to Jerusalem - why didn't he move it back to Tel Aviv?

Everything else you listed has no bearing on added support for Israel. Also: Israel oppresses Muslims harsher than anything Trump has proposed, and they actively court evangelicals in the US.

Has Biden done anything to discourage that?

Roe v Wade, Energy policy, SCOTUS ... it's irrelevant when compared to supporting genocide.

 

Is it an in-joke? Or does the person who makes these just enjoy posting them all day?

I want to create the kind of mud-pit rich people soak in when they visit a spa in Yurp.

I'm going to dig a 1-meter deep pit (That's 3-ish Freedom™ Feet) and fill it with some combination of soil and volcanic ash. I thought for sure there would be some DIY instructions for such a project on the internet .... but I'm not finding one and I don't know where else to ask.
