          potential blowback in the form of genocide against jews.

          that’s not what blowback means. it would be blowback if genderisopsec were describing a fear of Palestinians or another general Levantine group committing some form of state-sanctioned massacre of the descendants of eurojewish settlers in the aftermath of some future total diminution of the zionist ethnostate.

          what genderisopsec described on the other hand is a hypothetical situation in which jews living in the u.s. become the target of state-backed violence as a scapegoat for u.s. leadership and participation in the Nakba so that amerikkkan christozionists don’t suffer as much backlash for the genocide powered by their doomsday cult. which is ultimately pretty similar to why tsarist pogroms were originally organized during the late russian empire. this is not blowback because it would be carried about by u.s. settlers and the u.s. state and not people that were actually harmed by the zionist genocides.

          bringing up blowback on a comment under an article about zionists at a hotel is not centering them, the topic was already not Palestinians. and maybe zionist jews would be less genocidal if they were worrying about neonazi blowback? israel knows the blowback is coming and they want it to come so that non-zionist jews will be pushed into their arms and go help do more genocide and occupation.

          I don’t know how you’d even make this non-story incident focus on the victims of genocide. we don’t write fluff pieces every time someone puts up a sticker, but we do get news stories when some zionist can’t handle seeing it because they make a big stink and the media goes along with it.

          death to zionists, death to israel

          I have friends that are staunchly anti-zionist jews and I care about them so actually fuck this take. People I care about are gonna catch shit for this. What is wrong with you? This is not a zero sum game. Also Israel is not killing just non-Jews, they are also killing Jewish Palestinians. Nobody is “centering Jewish safety” and it is perfectly reasonable to talk about all the knock on effects of the actions of Israel.

            i guess not enough people on here grew up around kkkrackers using “jewed” as a word for being ripped off. the headline should be two genocide supporters saw the message. christian zionists would have been as offended, and reporting it the way LBC did here makes them complicit in the zionist’s conflation.

              if your jewish antiozionist friends are only antizionist out of a fear of reciprocal genocide then I don’t give a shit what they think.

              They’re not and have been since before most the fucking people on this site were alive. You act like it’s totally invalid to talk about this shit so I am choosing to just ignore you from here out.

                    With the understanding that pre-emptively accusing (amongst others) victims of genocide by a dominant group of future racial violence against their oppressors is inherently problematic and that the threat against other groups such as, for instance, muslims and people of MENA descent is much more tangible and immediate, sure.

                    Edit: That is why I said “Centering”.

                    Also again, you misrepresented this as genocide against “non-Jewish people” when there are also Palestinian Jews that they have killed and even Israeli Jews the IDF killed on October 7th. I’m done talking to you.

                    I don’t know how to tell you this, but zionism and the israeli state is an ethnonationalist project built up around jews as an ethnic category. The Israelis who ended up dying as a result of the hannibal doctrine et al do not invalidate this, and the Jews who maintain Palestinian citizenship also don’t do that.
