Read the text of it.
A. Every individual has a right to make and carry out one’s own reproductive decisions, including but not limited to decisions on: contraception; fertility treatment; continuing one’s own pregnancy; miscarriage care; and abortion.
Just wait until a pedophile argues in court that having sex with a child is his own reproductive decision and that the child is an individual who made the same decision.
I don’t think Israel should continue its actions in Palestine. I call for an end to the apartheid. There.
However, saying “death to Israel” doesn’t bring us any closer to peace.
Living in a place is not a reason to be killed. Being born in a place is not a reason to be killed.
settlers aren’t civilians
Dehumanization, how original.
Both involve the killing of innocent civilians based on their racioethnic group.
Different scale, motivation, morals, etc? Yes. Still, they give both context to saying “death to Israel” because they prove that the statement is being used in a violent way.
Okay so you are saying that:
Thus, “death to Israel” is calling for violence upon Jews. Antisemitic. Case closed.
I did not compare these two events.
I haven’t settled anywhere.
When Hamas is killing Israeli civilians and saying “death to Israel,” I’m not conflating anything.
Lmao, “Death to Israel” is not the same as “Black Lives Matter,” unless you actually DO mean “White Lives Don’t Matter”
And, once again, two wrongs don’t make a right.
Your words don’t scare or hurt me; they just make you sound ignorant.
If “tone policing” is calling out “death to Israel” as antisemitic, then sure. Call me the Tone Police Chief. I’m not the one acting obtuse about what those words mean.
Did I ever say that what Israel does is right?
I haven’t done that at all, but you equating me with my race/country does further demonstrate your racism. Thanks.
Just show your racism even more
Occupied people can resist occupation by any means necessary.
No. You can’t start killing civilians just because other civilians or their parents or their grandparents or or their racioethnic group or their government have taken land that belonged to you or your family’s ancestry or your racioethnic group or your government.
Then you should be more specific, racist.
No, but it does make you a stereotyping asshole, the same kind that might wish death upon a racioethnic group for the actions of a government
Saying death to an ethnostate does not mean death to the people in it
It does when civilians are being killed.
One of those parties is a colonial occupier, the other an occupied people resisting state violence. I can support one and not the other.
Your support for Palestine doesn’t make “death to Israel” not antisemitic.
Death to Israel is not antisemetic, because despite the europeans wrapping it in the trappings of jewishness, it isn’t all jews, doesn’t speak for all jews
Just because Israel doesn’t represent all Jews doesn’t absolve you of antisemitism for wishing death upon Israel. It is majority Jewish, and just above you have stated that the problems are all caused by the “European colony” of Jews. You’re mad at Israel because of those Jews, but not the Jews you like? This was common Nazi apologist rhetoric under Hitler.
Israel systematically disenfranchises non-jews and sterilizes non-white jews.
state of Israel is a genocidal ethnostate
You’re now admitting that Israel is a Jewish state despite trying to claim otherwise for this entire thread.
Israel kills way more Palestinian civilians every day
Two wrongs don’t make a right. Israel is doing horrible things, but it doesn’t deflect from the fact that “death to Israel” is antisemitic.
Before the European colony arrived, Jews, Christians and Muslims co-existed in Palestine.
Well, they aren’t coexisting now. Sorry, can’t go back in time. We solve problems of today because it is impossible to make things the way they once were. And which “European colony” are you referring to? The Jews? I thought this wasn’t about them? Dog whistle.
the Iraq invasion was … informed by … islamophobia
But by your own logic, I thought a government is different from the major racial/religious group of its people? We can’t say it was Islamaphobic just because the people there tend to be majority Muslim, right? We’d need other context, like… above.
hardly the equivalent of an occupied people resisting that occupation
I never said that Palestine doesn’t have a right to resist its occupation.
You’ve taken this argument far away from “death to Israel” not being antisemitic because you’re trying to argue that Palestine should exist. I’m not saying it shouldn’t, but it doesn’t make you not antisemitic.
I agree with you, but a law shouldn’t be worded this broadly.
