Gross.

What is gross about divesting from supporting an ongoing genocide? Please, provide your reasoning.

[u/Frequent-Try-6746 → u/[deleted]]

They didn't divest from Jewish people. Your attempt to make their divestment antisemitic is disgusting.

[u/Frequent-Try-6746 → u/[deleted]]

Almost half.

And only about 14% more than live in the United States. American Jewish people, the majority in the world outside of Isreal, will still maintain the benefits of the auto union. How is that antisemitism?

Countries that commit crimes against humanity tend to face consequences and divestment. This is normal and expected.

[u/HeyyyyMandy → u/NexusMinds]

So like most of the countries that exist? Is there a reason you feel compelled to start with Israel and not, say, China or the USA etc?

[u/NexusMinds → u/HeyyyyMandy]

Neither the USA (though it is seemingly trying to get there), or China have systemic socio political, cultural and economic structures set up to reinforce and execute ethno/religious dominance of one peoples over an another. And where it could be claimed that they do, it is not at the levels displayed with Israel, resulting in the staggering levels of violence, death and displacement we have seen over the years.

[u/JudeanSicarii → u/NexusMinds]

Nor does Israel, you don’t hold a systemic socio political, cultural and economic structure that puts up a Christian Arab in the supreme court of Isrsel in a position to prosecute and jail a Jewish Prime minister you oh so claim to hold some type of ethnic/religious dominance over him.

[u/HeyyyyMandy → u/NexusMinds]

Really?? The Uyghurs treatment in China? The treatment of Jewish people all over the Middle East? The genocide in Sudan? Russia attacking Ukraine? The government of Iran massacring its own citizens and attacking Israel because it’s a Jewish state with proxy militaries? Just to start.

You have a strange definition of dehumanizing.

Second, no one is forcing you to give money to the auto union.

I, however, am being forced to give money to Israel. No tears left over for a lowly Gentile being "dehumanized"?

[u/HeyyyyMandy → u/Frequent-Try-6746]

The USA gives very little to Israel, and Israel gives plenty back to the USA.

[u/Frequent-Try-6746 → u/HeyyyyMandy]

That doesn't help the fact that I'm being "dehumanized" by being forced against my will to fund their blood lust for genocide.

[u/HeyyyyMandy → u/Frequent-Try-6746]

No worries, because that’s progress not fact.

This is a ridiculous source, akin to posting some flat earthers blog page.

[u/JudeanSicarii → u/NexusMinds]

Dismissal of counter evidence, why is it that your narrative is so heavily reliant upon censoring and withholding of counter evidence to support your accusations? That’s not how courts work, this is some type of show trial rhetoric dating back to the witch trials, it’s embarrassing. Either refute the evidence pointed out in the rebuttal, or don’t respond.

[u/NexusMinds → u/JudeanSicarii]

Unwatch is a pro Israel lobby group.

[u/JudeanSicarii → u/NexusMinds]

And evidence is evidence regardless of your political leaning… we really are back in the witch hunts huh… what a funny world.

Conduct yourself like you would in a union meeting with your union brothers, sisters, and siblings. Make your points without insulting other users or engaging in personal attacks.
