Commented uder a post with the headline “genocide is no longer a ref line for the party auf Germany”
Content was: they kicked out a Hamas supporter who denied Israels right to exist.
Now am Banned from .ml because I said it can be argued whether its the right thing to kick hamas supporters who deny Israels right to exist from the left party of Germany or not, but framing this as “genocide is no longer a red line for the left party of Germany” seems a bit populistic.
Apparently that’s racism (rule 1)
Don’t mind the tankies there, you don’t miss out on anything :)
I have to agree with them on this one. Colonizers do not have the right to create an ethnostate and commit geonicide just because some other white people committed geonicide against them. Furthermore, support for zionism is pretty well rooted in antisemitism. Essentially, it’s “get those jews out of here!”
Thats a strawman you arguing against. I never said anything about supporting zionists.
My point is and was that throwing out Hamas supporters and being okay with genocide (slaughtering and starving innocent civilians) are two different things.
The same as throwing out supporters of the the right wing Israeli government would not be the same as being okay with slaughtering or kidnapping of innocent civilians.
I am not arguing that the action of throwing Hama’s supoorters out is good or bad, or justified or unjustified, I argue that its a different question from if you support the warcrimes the Israelis commit or not.

I see, that wasn’t clear to me from the initial comment.
