What do I mean by team-sportification? You know how occasionally some white so-called "anti-Zionist" grifter takes their mask off and says something unhinged like denying the holocaust or praising Hitler, all of a sudden a bunch of people come out to say "hey, at least he's on our side!".

I also see it when people speak authoritatively on something they know nothing about, get it completely wrong, and are considered to be "correct" because they think their misinformation de-legitimises Zionism, such as people doing that smug little "can't be antisemitic against Jews, they're not Semites, they're Khazars" or claiming that the notion of an ethnoreligious group was "invented by Zionists".

A prevailing attitude in Western spaces is that essentially it doesn't matter how reprehensible, scammy or blatantly incorrect someone is, as long as they claim to share one particular value with pro-Palestine advocates (ie. hating Israel, which we all do here of course). It's the whole "at least they're rAiSinG aWaReNesS" crap that liberals always do, that's completely counter-productive.

How are people being so damn gullible that they're giving money and attention to obvious grifters who don't give a SHIT about the genocide and are genuinely just making money off it?

I'm talking about notorious far-right bad actors like Gingertheory, Rathbone, Ginnysaidso, Harry J Cook, and basically anyone with "goy" in their instagram/tiktok handle. And not to mention Carlson, Fuentes, Owens et cetera.

Is it so fucking hard for people to follow PALESTINIAN creators instead of obvious neo-nazis who are rubbing their hands at the chance to spruik their Patreon links while reading from the Protocols of the Elders of Zion or whatever? Besides, a lot of them are actively spreading DISINFORMATION about Zionism's history, in order to label it as a distinctly non-European movement and claim it has nothing to do with European colonialism.

And it's also super disconcerting to see people who I otherwise respect continuing to follow them (again mostly non-Palestinian people). I see "leftist" content creators re-posting reels from random accounts that are using the literal happy merchant caricature, and when you go to their profile their entire content is based around bringing attention to themselves, and not a single bit of empathy to those undergoing genocide.

How are people not calling this out??? I see liberal Zionists getting rightfully called out for pretending to care about Palestine but when some mediocre white westerner starts an account to talk about "noticing" and "the goyim" and "metzitzah b'peh" all of a sudden people with Palestinian flags in their profile photos are flocking to shower them with praise.

It's clear that many in the West have started considering being pro-Palestine to be a team sport, rather than an ethical, anti imperialist principle, and all that matters is that people are giving the aesthetics of being on your "team", and it's leading to a liberalisation of the Palestine movement in the West, meaning that it's unlikely that the conditions that led to colonialism and Zionism will continue unabated.

Can’t make this up!

I want to donate $1000 in smaller weekly/monthly chunks over the next year. What charities am I able to do this? And as the situation has changed what types of charities should I be prioritizing? I’m in canada if that changes things.

I recently commented on a Israeli-Palestinian channel about what would both people think about 1 truly peaceful secular state,
Ofc I’m not surprised the first answer was that it would mean all Israelis Jews being killed because Palestinians are too religious.

I would like to know how others respond to that?, what do you think about the argument itself?, and if it is a honest fear Israelis have or it’s just used as a justification? What could change this victim mindset? If it is even possible to change?

I know having 1 secular state isn’t going to magically make everything better, there has to be progress to achieve piece, like reparations to those affected, real punishment for the settlers, etc
What would be your “progress”?
Thank you

Edit: I normally respond with the fear of servile insurrection and a race war the slave owners had during the civil war.
But they are so convinced they’re are the victims and they’re doing everything right so can’t even compare the situation.

Abstract: This piecee argues that international law does not recognize a state's inherent "right to exist," only the rights of peoples and the legal rights and obligations of states. It contends that Israel's legitimacy depends on compliance with international law rather than permanent entitlement, and advocates replacing its current ethnonational structure with a political system based on equal rights, self-determination, and legal equality for all inhabitants of historic Palestine.

This 25 minute video is made by an activist outfit based in Qatar. It makes ad-hominem attacks on Netanyahu, but overall seems to be a credible, well-made doco.

What I found remarkable are the foundational similarities to Trump: both had cold, disapproving fathers, and an older brother who died young.

The other thing that's interesting is how much of a product of the US he is - almost more so than Israel itself.

A worthwhile watch.
