Reply to comment by dullredcubiclecarpet in The U.S. & the Holocaust, Episode 1: “The Golden Door” (2022) A xenophobic backlash prompts Congress to restrict immigration. Hitler and the Nazis persecute German Jews, forcing many to seek refuge. FDR is concerned by the growing crisis but is unable to coordinate a response. [02:08:43] by s_y_s_t_e_m_i_c_

Sure, I think many people can benefit from watching this documentary as it is produced very well from an information and entertainment standpoint, and shows sides of the Holocaust many people likely haven’t heard. However, bringing up Israel on a post about the Holocaust like this is most certainly not done with humanitarian intentions, and it just goes to show how much the pro-Palestinian movement is influenced by antisemitism.

If you honestly don’t see what’s antisemitic about bringing up the Israel/Palestine conflict randomly in a conversation about the Holocaust, you’re either lacking in education or simply hate Jews. I hope you are the former. Here’s a comparison for you.

In a post about the history of slavery in America, if someone comments about how gun violence is rampant in the black community with the obvious intention to push the narrative that black people are a danger, is that racist? I would say emphatically, yes. It’s a form of demonization and thus, racist bigotry.

That is what we see here in the comment I replied to.

the OP said let's not forget the reporters and kids murdered by Israeli forces either and you said they should go and watch the video. So basically what you're saying is we should only watch the suffering of jews. But if anybody reminds apartheid Israel to learn from their own tragedy and not do the same to others, they are anti semite. Basically at this point, calling everybody an anti semite is a bullshit excuse to stop everybody from speaking a word. Keep on spreading the propaganda.
