You’re a real one, Nancy Fraser

When I was telling people over here that Germans have literally gone crazy, as far as claiming that a bunch of JEWISH academics and intellectuals were antisemitic, people were telling me I’m overreacting lmao
The German government has gone insane out of a misplaced sense of guilt for the holocaust. The government is incapable of nuance. There have beens bans on protests, and blocks on visas if they find out you’re pro palistine. Being anti-zionaism is illegal.
Ironic that you are complaining about a lack of nuance with the most generalized and misinformed post I’ve seen in a minute. Also, this whole situation is completely unrelated to the government.
By blindly supporting Israel, Germany is making themselves complicit in all crimes committed by Israel. Because of how blindly and willfully Germany is walking into helping with the in progress ethnic cleansing, the slogan “never again” has never sounded so empty to me before.
Never again makes absolute sense along with this support when interpreted within a racist mental architecture, as “Never again will Germans do this to Jews”.
These two things don’t make sense together for those who are Humanists because we see it as “Never again shall people be mass murdered for their etnicity”, which is an entirelly race-agnostic take that doesn’t deem some humans more or less worthy of life (and hence protection from would be aggressors) based on their etnicity.
If there is one thing all this has painfully shown is that the racist architecture of the NAZIs was not torn down in Germany after their defeat in WWII and instead they kept that way of thinking and just did some shifting in their mental lists of unter- and undermenschen to make it “politically correct”.
This is how zionists censor dissent.
