Why people who never been to Palestine, never met a Palestinian, never been affected by a Palestinian hate them so much.
Most of them are not even Israeli or Jewish, but they just hate innocent people of Palestine who only want to live their lives in their ancestral home.
They have been watching them suffer for over 70 years with blessing of the entire western world.
I don’t get it!
@faab64 Honestly, it’s easier to make someone hate a person they’ve never met. Actually meeting people tends to humanize them.
Liberal and Conservative media outlets alike have been portraying Arabs and Muslims as bloodthirsty savages for generations. The Fox News stuff is obvious and abhorrent but it’s so outlandish its almost comical to anyone with half a working brain cell. But the reason it’s so mainstream and pervasive in the west is largely thanks to the legitimization efforts of liberal mouthpieces like the New York times and the Atlantic, etc. They make it palatable for high society to be able to watch the annihilation of a people and not even flinch.
Liberal news outlets are literally defending the genocide with ‘Our way of life is better’, similar to a post by Platner who said that they might kill (in Iraq? Afghanistan?) thousands, maybe millions, but it was worth it because ‘Our way of life is better’. Literally Nazi rhetoric but without the genetics argument because it’s no longer palatable.
@faab64 @[email protected] @[email protected] Propaganda. Western media has been portraying Palestinian people as irrational, bloodthirsty terrorists since at least the 1970s.
It is really unbearable sometimes. The have been watching such horrifying suffering of 2 million innocent people and they still hate the victims, even innocent children, even the new borns.
There is many islamophobic people who think it’s ok for palestinians to die just for being muslims.
Racism and Islamophobia. That’s all it boils down to.
Because they hate brown people.
Also they’re stupid. I want palestinians to be free not because I care about palestinians specifically, I care about it because if they can murder mums over there and nobody does anything, nobody will move the day they murder mine or yours.
My wife she’s recieving calls from her friend saying one died or one’s now widowed or that one’s parent have been martyred.
We have reached a new level of fascism in our time.
Sadly, people still think fascism is only what they were thought about Nazi Germany, the shaved up version of the evil of fascism only portrayed as an anti Jewish evil force, hiding the hate for Roma, Blacks, Asians, Socialists and labor activist who were the majority of the victims of Nazis.
The failure of our education system have led to the surge of extremism we see all over the world, with Trump on top.
true. On the other hand, school itself is also a repressive institution when they’re organized like pyramid. I hated high school.
I mean I’m belgian they didnt say a word about what we did in congo. Congolese people were the one telling me about it
@10TH_OF_SEPTEMBER_CALL
I am lucky because I grew up in a family where my father taught us at early age that always read different sources and never believe in printed media, specially those funded by governments.In recent years, we have reached a new level of information control, a few corporations, owned by super rich control what we can and can not read, watch and hear.
And on top of everything, movie industry, with hollywood on the top, working uninterrupted to rewrite history
Same. My daddy he was a baker, so not white collar per se but still pretty shit, I mean you wake up at 3AM 6 days a week, and you wont get rich unless you go full capitalist and buy machine and employee and stuff.
Lately he told me he occupied some public office
They’ve been told to. It’s one (not so great) thing to form an opinion about a group you’ve had actual, unfavorable interactions with. But it’s quite another to form those opinions about a group you never have and never will come into contact with. That requires external reinforcement, which is plentiful via Fox News (“Fair and Balanced”) and the like.
