        I'll never stop being weirded out by how it's so common as a fashion style. And home decorating.

          I know not every American is a walking stereotype, but when I visited Milan to meet some Italian friends the only overweight people I saw in the entire city were US tourists, and I knew they were US tourists because they were wearing everthing from t-shirts with a small US flag on it to a full US flag jumpsuit.

          Nationality is personality for those without one. It’s just a default pre-packaged personality they can pick up and adopt wholesale

    Has he tried getting the fuck out?

    Or at least not openly advertising that he’s a settler colonialist.

    Then don't go online. Israelis aren't welcome in my spaces and being harassed off the internet is the absolute smallest amount of pushback a demon like this should face. Go die in your war.

      Some chess sites (at least lichess iirc but im pretty sure that chess.com does it too) show the country of each player, so I think these are the opponents the player is being matched with

        It's worth noting that you can actually opt not to show your country or choose to show a different country in the chess.com settings so this person is purposely putting the Israeli flag on their account and getting sad that people are giving them pushback on it

          you can actually opt not to show your country

          If you have a free account - you can't change your flag.

      Yes chad-stalin

      Unironically it is the revolutionary defeatist duty of all Americans to attack the fascist American proxy state and genocidal project known as “Israel”

      Don’t go online and be a Zionist, all Israelis deserve harassment. “Settler-colonist genocider” is their class, I have no solidarity with such scum

          He is proudly displaying the fascist flag of his project and calls the ongoing genocide a “conflict”

          *born in a military occupation that is eating someone else's country and lives

          As an American I also advocate the shaming of Americans for the exact same reasons

          This is this man's YouTube channel, here is the machine translated lyrics from one of his songs:

          Ashkenazic

          I filet mignon, cabernet sauvignon, I don't get pushed on the bus, I'd rather be last, I read a book every month, I have uncles from Emek Hefer [Early Settlement in Occupied Palestine], And ashamed that I am a man. Definitely prefer not to get into fights, Because all my life I have not been beaten, At school I didn't smoke during breaks, I dated a limited number of girls.

          And when they see me, everyone immediately knows, blue eyes, fair hair, They don't even ask.

          Ashkenazic Ashkenazic

          I was walking down the street, I saw a girl, Straight hair, firm and large chest, in general she has a great figure, A little brown for my taste, but I said not bad, She had diamond eyes, it's a dream, I say hello to her, why what happened? So I approached, even though I was apprehensive, I said to her, "How about some tea and maybe some lewdness?" She told me to breathe on the courage, but you are Ashkentoz, And I'm Yemeni on the level.

          The way they meet me, really not afraid, light skin, colorful plaid shirt, Straight away you see.

          Ashkenazic Ashkenazic

          I hardly ever drink beer, if at all. I don't buy my belts at the castle, not a fan of any football team, At school I was a friend of all the staff. After an hour in the sea I go out (red) sitting puts his feet on (the pedestal) math I did units (five) not going to the club because it's (loud)

          Ashkenazic
