Really? We’ve basically descended to antisemitism now?
I 100% think the use of force in Gaza is genocide and a war crime, but this is a cartoon I’d expect from the Right. We’re better than that.
Looking forward to the downvotes for my ground shattering opinion that racial generalizations never have a place in political commentary.
EDIT: I’ve never been happier in my life to be downvoted. Keep them coming. I love how I even said in my initial comment that I do not support Israel and think they’re committing genocide (which is the general Lemmy opinion), but I’m still getting toasted. I would say the same thing about a WWII cartoon that made racial generalizations about Asians, or about the imperialist cartoons of the late 1800s that made generalizations about any number of a group of other people.
The downvotes are because nuance doesn’t belong on lemmy. Only militant “agree with the hive or fuck off!” opinions are considered here.
What you said is 100% correct. Not everything is as black and white as the lemmy collective makes it out to be. But pointing this out makes you as close to the enemy here’s as if you had posted MAGA propaganda.
I’ll be downvoted too, but since up and down arrows have no value to anyone over the age of 12, - I wouldn’t worry about it.
the downvotes are because the opinion expressed is not only wrong, but monstrous. its like saying “its complicated” about the holocaust or any other of the myriad of crimes committed by the nazis. it is fucking not and muddying the waters by stating otherwise makes you nothing but a genocide apologist.
