Firstly:

Okay now for the post.

When Palestine is liberated, I think the vast majority of settlers will either be [redacted] or forced out of the region. There is no way that any Arab in the region will accept having a settler in their land, and the settlers know this. The plan will have to be a mass exodus for the west, both for their safety and livelihood (I can see many going into ghoul industries like defense, tech, and police training).

That being said, how would you react if your country decides to accept settlers? Would you support the move? If they were going to live in your community/ neighborhoods how would you feel?

If you’re not actively working to reverse that I don’t see how you’re any better than the Israelis you’re calling for the deaths of.

You have a point there.

The average American is absolutely not like the average Israeli, this would be like saying the Americans of today are absolutely no different than the Confederate Americans who wanted to continue slavery.

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever read. You’re telling me that Americans today- who are not commiting an active genocide with their own hands, who are not in a conscripted SS butchering and expelling native Americans, who are absolutely not living in an apartheid or even under Jim crow law, who would protest and may even take up arms against the government if that threat were actually on the table- are exactly like israelis who are doing the exact opposite of all that and actually prefer things to be that way?

Be so ffr, please

That’s a really important difference tho, though ofc as someone born in Settler Hell I mean Amerikkka I mean the US I am going to probably have some sort of crakkker bias. It’s just that someone who misses their complicity in evil specifically designed to be harder to notice is blatantly less evil than someone who is seeing it very obviously and is endorsing it. I’m still profiting off the stolen spoils of genocide, yeah, and I think that’s morally fucked up, but no one I know (that isn’t otherwise a piece of shit) would endorse anything like the genocide of Palestinian people.

I still agree with the general point that “unlimited genocide” on the Israeli populace when taken entirely is a weird position, but I always read statements like that as a bit anyway, especially because there are presumably Israeli people who have draft dodged etc just by the law of large numbers
