    Exactly like when they accused MLK of anti-white sentiment , in the eyes of the privileged, equality is seen as persecution

      Is this an actual quote?

      “ In the eyes of the privileged, equality is seen as persecution”

        It has disputed origin but certainly not MLK, if that's what you're asking

        I paraphrased but yeah I've read that somewhere. Looked it up on the internet, turns out no one really knows where it's from

            Its a short work, only 5 or so pages. I believe the part I'm referring to is on the first page.

    This is exactly what you get when you mix fascism with religion. Catofash in Poland are exactly the same. Usians, either evangelicals or civil religion worshippers too.

    It's funny, because you could replace "Jews" with "Americans" in this, and it could be from a speech made by any US president in the past fifty years.

      Exactly. Zionists think they are special... but they are really run of the mill white settlers. All their arguments were made starting with the Spaniards in the new world and really stalled out in Victorian era Europe. That's why it all looks familiar. It's been around for literally centuries.

    Well...in case any zionists pass through - you're a really special ethnicity. It sure seems to me that you're in the number one spot for holding on to the barbaric ass "god chosen people" bullshit for the longest time in history. Otherwise, you're an average ass middle-eastern ethnicity.

    Thank god you don't represent all Jews.

    P.S. I'm gonna feel like that poor Vault Boy there for a straight hour now...

      Stop it, the white Zionists are almost brought to climax by being referred to this way.

          Europe (initially, due the Holocaust displacing them) and increasingly US/CA/AU (due to Birthright citizenship). When Ethiopian Jews went to Israel, they were sterilized, and only some of the Palestinian Jews wound up in the new settler colony despite their supposedly being the basis for the founding of the country in that location.

        The problem isn't that Zionists "milk" the Holocaust, the problem is that they use it to obfuscate from their ongoing theofascist project.

        I dont mind them milking the holocaust. What i disagree with is that they are milking middle easterners when they should be milking germany, maybe poland.

    Hey. I know what you are doing right here, and you intend no harm, but you might accidentally do anti-semite dogwhistle thingie, we already have issues with liberals and actual right wing extremists might get attracted to the 'grad because of this, don't continue it.

    I keep rereading this but it never makes sense. Is it missing text or a poor translation to English?

      It is very jarring how to the article starts off with typical liberal platitudes about diversity and working hard but in the last 3 paragraphs does a total 180 into "we are the master race" territory.

      It's Jewish theology. Like many old religions, it declares its followers (who were also a collection of ethnic groups) to be supernaturally superior to others, "G_d's chosen people," and so on.
