I’m not even particularly keen on relying on that opportunistic relationship to group zionism and nazism together, but it would be quite ridiculous to suggest anti-zionism is Nazi ideology.
Except at the same time Nazi Germany was also courting Amin al-Husseini (who was later the leader of Mandatory Palestine) and instructing the arab world to slaughter their Jews.
It’s pretty clear that Nazi Germany wanted them in one place to make the extermination easier; hence why they gathered all the Jews they could find.
Saying that Nazi Germany supported Zionism is a gross misunderstanding of Nazi Germany and Jews in WW2. It makes it sound like Nazi Germany was a-okay with Jews so long as they stuck to their own place, which is blatantly false and highly suspect to even be arguing.
It also explains why caliphates in the Middle East are rife with Nazi German rhetoric and why there are so much Nazi-era books and reading material inside Gaza.
Actually yea, kinda. Modern neo-nazis think that Israel will eventually be consumed in a regional war and destroyed, which might not actually be that farfetched. It’s also why you’ll hear a lot of right-wing Americans say that we should Nuke Iran - they want there to be a nuclear exchange and for Israel to be destroyed, along with much of the Middle East.

Yes, that was my point. It wasn’t that they were ‘a-okay with Jews’, it was that supporting Zionism served their interests in driving Jews out of Europe. Especially now, when Nazi Germany is still very much a part of our generational memory, Nazis lean on those apparent contradictions to deflect negative attention and re-frame their movement for the modern age.
You’ll notice a lot of neo-nazis support Zionism (particularly American neo-nazis), and it’s for a couple reasons:
vocally supporting Israel serves as evidence that they aren’t anti-semetic (how could they be, they support Israel!)
it provides a convenient rhetorical opportunity to say that Jews should ‘just go be a part of their own country’ and stay out of theirs
It serves as a positive example of building an anti-immigrant national religious ethnostate. The primary goal of Nazis is to expel foreigners and create their own, and being able to point to Israel as a widely-accepted example is compelling (especially to people who think of Nazism and Zionism as mutually exclusive)
American Neo-nazis have a large overlap with American evangelism, who believe that a battle over Israel will precede the end of time and usher in heaven on earth. To an alarming portion of the American right-wing, support for Israel is largely based on this eschatology and they believe they will eventually be destroyed, and the survivors will dispel and convert to Christianity (because their ‘anti-christ’ lead them to slaughter)
That isn’t to say that Zionism is a nazi ideology, just that Zionism just happens to align with their interests at the moment (and in the 1930-40’s). I largely think this misconception of Zionism’s relationship to Nazism stems from a flawed world-view that centers around ideological binaries, instead of a complicated dialectic of various interests. “Something can’t be x, it has qualities of y” is just such a pedantic misdirect it’s hard not to laugh at it.
Education is a real mess in the mid west it seems. You are worse than the other lemmygrad guys. You are the embodiment of “i don’t understand history and language” just WOW.
Anti zionism is not a nazi ideology what the fuck. How is being against people being displaced and forced to live in inhumane conditions something a nazi thinks?
Secularism has nothing to do with the wish to destroy Israel, wich is what anti Zionism is. Israel itself is a very secular country, have you been there?
Also 99% of people that are “anti Zionist” are actually just normal antisemitic people that don’t want jews to live. Iran for example is famously “anti Zionist” so is Russia, and China.
The not acceptance of theocracies would be a great point to support Israel.
Israel has btw about 20% native Muslim population, they have the exact same rights as the jews and Christians and hindustan (yes Israel has a relatively strong hindu community wich is growing) and there are also many other religions. Guess where there is only one religion?
RIGHT! in the terrorist havens that aren’t strong enough to fight these bastards that use them as meat shields and for propaganda.
Remember the Beirut blast? That was a Hezbolla/Iran weapon factory, where they made bombs.
How in the world can a normal human not support Israel and believe the obvious lies about it? Its always the same, as long as it involves jews, its their fault. And when not, they are behind the “bad guys” i thought this ass mentality died after WW2 but no its stronger than ever.
I suppose applying it to the Israeli Settlements would be more apt. I reckon if the settlements were dismantled, then the whole anti-zionist stuff would fall apart.
The asshole settlers are hated by 99% of the Israeli population because these assholes make it worse on purpose, they are however not the Israeli government and not on behalf of Israel and these people are basically persona ingrata in Israel itself, most of them are basically Faschists themselves and i wouldn’t care for their deaths, they do actually kill innocent people and by doing so endangering the normal Israeli civilians to terrorism. I do wish that the Israeli government would do more against them, but most of the time their resources are bound by the terrorists all around Israel and the capacity to remove the settlements isn’t there, also the ass head Netanjahu, or rather some people around him are in favor of them, they are hated by the Israeli people as well.
That guy is a raging antisemite that marets his own hate videos on lemmy.

I don’t need your “opinion” on facts. Stfu nazi.
They’re not a nazi
He is. Wanting to destroy Israel (“Anti Zionism”) is a inherited Nazi ideology.
Lmao, the Nazis themselves were Zionists. They wanted the Jews out of their country and saw zionism as a compelling way to get them out.

Actually the idea was to put the jews on to a island to let them die there, this Idea was replaced by the Concentration camps later on.

Erm,… back at ya?

So you are a “Anti Zionist”?
You could say so, why?
Wow imagine admitting following Faschist idiology. You are officially invited to join lemmygrad!
I mean, I won’t argue on the Israel-destruction thing, but I don’t think being secular makes you a nazi.
I’m anti-Zionist, anti-caliphate, anti-Christendom, you know, secular.

Doesn’t matter, unfortunately.
Per instance rules, no calling people names.
Ok, next time i just repot such people.
