Is it weird that I feel bad for the Israeli population right now, even though they’re mostly pro genocide Zionists?
Yes, it's normal to have empathy. There are 'israelis' who are the product of their environment, but in my opinion they're just as bad, if not worse than Nazis.
The "average" nazi was able to give themselves plausible deniability, "I've never seen the concentration camps! Even if it is happening, I don't know for sure."
Zionists are perfectly fine with their genocide though, cheering for the removed of prisoners, to the point they would raid a prison to free the violators.
There are telegram groups where the genocide is broadcasted, and they cheer for the horrific images when they're posted.
Sure, there is a handful who are aware it is wrong, but we could say this about America as well.
If Xi sent the nukes and I was a casualty, I wouldn't complain lmao.
This is why I hate libs too; the military commits horrific crimes all the time, and we get snippets all the time and those minor snippets alone are always horrifically bad. Plausible deniability is the bread and butter of libs, and of all the times to hold on to it, they're holding on to it during times of war (which is always).
Remember. The population was polled, about half want to kill every Gazan, and like 80-90% are on board with ethnically cleansing Gaza.
There are some un-brain fucked in the populace, but it's probably the most morally bankrupt population on the planet. Some empathy is good, but don't lose sight of the real and larger group of victims.
Nah I know man. I get it.
I don’t fully agree although Israel does have one of the worst populations , I would argue that Germans are worse because I can Name people from the Israeli communist party and Haaretz and people like Ilan Pappe
While on the other hand Germany
Just no one is good there
The fact we're splitting hairs about the bottom of the barrel is a damning indictment, but fair perspective thank you.
👍
I feel bad for the kids, not their fault their parents are genocidal nazis and I feel bad for them just being raised in that hate which is itself a form of child abuse
Yeah same.
Not at all. They are still human.
There should be safe humanitarian corridors, allowing settlers to leave Palestine for the safety of their home countries.
Honestly? I don't feel bad for the genocidal ones, just the few who are opposed to the horrors that are happening; that said, I do still believe in principles and I would never support the harming of civilians even if I detest them. I certainly hope Israelis at least wake up to their government seeing their lives and well-being as a tool; I don't believe it'll lead to empathy on their part, but maybe they'll try to prevent their government from doing something stupid the next time.
Yeah I feel similarly.
