    Some zionist on tiktok was posting about how the Irish and Palestinians did not fight the Nazis in WW2. It was infuriating.

      You wanna know who also technically didn't fight the NAZIs? Israel... (you can argue the colonial government under the British but that would also include Palestine...)

      I could be commenting at a straw man you made up, but still, stupid

        Considering Ben Gurion didn't want holocaust survivors to come to settle Israel because he considered them subhuman, and he thought that Israel should only welcome young settlers who didn't get sent to the camps, yeah, I wouldn't put it past them to be like Mark Wahlberg and say "if I was there I would simply not get holocausted"

        I would argue the colonial government fighting the Nazis certainly gave good reason for Palestinians to not flight the Nazis

            I think he's saying that the colonized are likely to support a country fighting their colonizers, no matter how bad that other country might be.

      All history is up for grabs now. You can say any idiot thing you want to support your point, whether it's based in any sort of reality or not, and liberal shitheads will nod along knowingly.
