Israel's Backers Are Now Advocating The Assassination Of Greta Thunberg - Lemmy

US Senator Lindsay Graham has just tweeted an article titled “Greta Thunberg sets sail with Gaza flotilla that aims to break Israeli naval blockade,” adding the comment, “Hope Greta and her friends can swim!” Australian Zionist think tanker Arsen Ostrovsky somehow outdid Graham, tweeting “Oh look, the little jihadi Greta Thunberg is trying to get into Gaza, to show solidarity with Hamas. It would be so sad if something were to happen to her flotilla…” There’s not a lot that can shock me about Israel and its supporters these days. But if you’d traveled back in time a few years ago it would be hard to explain to someone how we got to a timeline that includes Israel supporters openly advocating the assassination of Greta Thunberg.

Bullshit. Yeah there will be some people who say that whatever the political situation is. Nevertheless, if you want to remove Israel, that’s just one less free state in the Middle-East. Jews are an actually respectable and safe people unlike the Muhammadians. Just don’t mess with their land, Israel.

Totally ignoring the fact that they started the war with a mass murder. When they attack your own people you can do all the virtue-signalling. But oh, wait, you could never defend your own people in such a situation, since the Left controls no weapons, so your opinions are worthless anyways.

Of course, Leftists and Muhammadians will continue to co-exist in peace once all the Jews who mind their own business and the less problematic Christians are gotten rid of. In fantasy realm.

I’m anticipating the you somehow justify calling for the drowning of a bunch of young climate activists, on Twitter, and profiting from the attention…

Something about them being leftists, so they have it coming?

Yeah Twitter, the real reflection of the real world, and not a mini 4-chan type outlet for humanity’s worst thoughts.

Lindsey Graham’s tweet got 17.1 Million views, and counting.

It may be nuts, but it changes thoughts because it’s embedded in millions of people’s real lives. While the senator’s tweet may not be acted on directly, it fuels the media ecosystem that calls for, and drives, such violence. It sways sentiment in the real world in a way OP’s less engaged article never will.

Tweets like this are what put shameless, crazy right wingers (and crazy left wingers) in control of the world. Jihadists terrorists take advantage of it, MAGA takes advantage of it, Israeli demagogues take advantage of it, and others ignoring it is how we got to this place in the first place.
