French authorities have banned demonstrations in support of Gaza, arrested protesters, and moved to dissolve several Palestine advocacy groups.

    It’s fucking hilarious seeing communities like this who in the past have been so gung-ho about shit like punching Nazis standing next to the people who want to annihilate the Jews.

    You guys don’t stand for justice, you just like punching people.

      I hate hamas, but Israel is currently committing a genocide against Palestinian people in gaza. We should focus on the action of the so called “only democracy in the middle east”. Especially because western governments are supporting israel in its actions.

      Do not fall for israeli propaganda. The bombing and murder of innocent civilians is a bad thing. Its bad when hamas does it and bad when israel does it, but hamas is a horrible terrorist group and israel is supposed to be a civilized country. We should expect better from such a powerful country as Israel.

        The fuck part of my statement did you see me saying the Holocaust isn’t real?

        The people we’re standing shoulder to shoulder with are Jews across the world calling for peace

        Yeah, no. Some of them are maybe but there is a very definite and real undercurrent of hatred and desire to exterminate the Jews.

        I’ve seen three actual real full blown antisemites in the wild in my life. Full blown bullshit about how Jews control the world and do magic and all sorts of conspiracy crap. All of them doing it in the name of Islam.

        Western Nazis totally exist as well. But the West actually keeps them in check.

        Jews will continue to live in a free Palestine

        And pigs will fly from my ass. Hamas literally founded their group on the principal of getting rid of the Jews and everyone with more than two brain cells sees the writing on the wall.

          The fuck they’re kept in check. Actual card carrying Nazis helped build the post-war western “international rules based order.” Even today people with similar ethno-nationalist, settler-colonialist, and fascist ideology are at the highest levels of every western government, big inter-government organization, and corporation. They’re starting wars and committing genocides left and right, always have and always will, until they’re stopped by national liberation movements and normal everyday working people taking a stand.

          Whereas Palestinian liberation is about stopping the bloody genocide against the Palestinian people and once again giving them agency over their own lives - for they haven’t had any in generations. That’s something we can all stand behind.
