a reminder:
- not all israelis support the IDF's violence
- not all jews support the IDF's violence
- when we criticise israel, we are supposed to be criticising the government and those who individually support the ongoing genocide in gaza
- if you are condemning every single individual in israel, you are an antisemite
- equally, if you are condemning every single individual in gaza for the october attacks, you are an islamophobe
- there is no moral justification for the deaths of 13,000 palestinian children
- there is no moral justification for the 1100+ civilians killed in the october 7th attacks
- if you assume that every jew you come across supports the ongoing actions of the israeli government, you are an antisemite
- you can support palestinian resistance without asserting that hamas are good and blameless
- if you assert that the reason for broadly pro-israel media coverage worldwide is that jews control the media, you are an antisemite
- attacking random jews online with no affiliation to the israeli government will not, shockingly, aid those in gaza
- if you wish to support gaza, there are many resources available to help you donate/protest/petition etc
Edit: some people in the tags and replies have pointed out my misuse of the term 'zionism' as well as parts of this post which implied things that I didn't intend them to. I have edited those bits so that they better reflect what I am trying (but clearly poorly wording) to say.
