    Religious fundamentalists do not encourage or instruct fasting during an ongoing famine (not even Islamic ones).

    Thinking that they do (and laughing about it) while they starve at the hands of their colonial occupier is honest-to-god nazi-level genocide apologia.

      You’d be hard pressed to find a cartoonist more fond of mocking neo-nazi’s than the one who drew this

      It’s mocking adults who’d prefer to die for their religion for condemning their kids (and their kids) to do the same. If you believe they’re starving their kids directly then this newspaper is too difficult for you

        Of course they’re not suggesting they’re ‘starving their kids directly’, but what they are doing is sidelining the colonial power actually responsible for their starvation and instead holding up an inaccurate and bigoted portrayal of their religious practices as a stand-in for Israel’s culpability.

        To blame Muslims for Israel’s sustained genocidal bombardment of innocent Gazans is a level of depraved racist bigotry I honestly never thought I’d witness in my time. The Nazis blamed the Jews for their own extermination, and that is precisely what you are doing here.

          Don’t call others Nazis. Not allowed.

              What makes you think they’re a nazi?

                I don’t, but you stated that like it’s an absolute community rule.

                Do we need to report suspicious antisocial behavior to the commissars or can we say someone saying actual Nazi things is a Nazi?

                Does “don’t be a dick” still apply to justified accusations based on evidence, in other words?

                  If you don’t think they are a nazi, then what’s your concern?

                    Future reference for when actual Nazis wander in, as they always will to any community that seems to focus on criticizing communists.

                    Or 40k.

              why disavow communism?

              The Nazis blamed the Jews for their own extermination, and that is precisely what you are doing here.

                That Nazis did blame the Jews for their own extermination, and that is what that person was doing.

                Nowhere did I say that he was a Nazi.

                Close, but thanks for following directions.

                  lol

                  ‘I didn’t call him a nazi! I said that he’s being a nazi! completely different.’

                  @[email protected], do you feel as if he called you a nazi?

                    Lmao I didn’t even say he was being a nazi, I said he was using the same rhetoric the Nazis used

                    He could think I called him a platypus, that wouldn’t make it accurate.


                    edit: conspicuously absent is your opinion on if what he was doing was blaming the Palestinian Genocide on their Islamic beliefs, and if (to your recollection) the Nazis also blamed the Jews for their own genocide. Fair if you don’t think so, but you’ve so far avoided elaborating on your opinion on Islam.
