    Being against genocide is pretty controversial these days…

    So now the message is to be scared to stand up for what is right?

    So… Never Again™ actually means only the Jews. Got it.

      Never Again is a phrase popularised by zionist terrorist Kahane in the 70s, the original phrasing used by holocaust survivors was never forget

    What the hell? So “Never Again” doesn’t actually mean “Never again” anymore?

    What the fuck is wrong with everyone these days?

    “Never again” can’t mean never again for Palestinians.

    The language in this is almost hilarious in just how hard they’re trying to throw someone under the bus. This was something they thought of, and pre-planned what, before the genocide? And then they have taken actions internally and fired so-and-so for it because it was all their fault!? Gosh, what a pickle!

      It seemed to acknowledge that peoples other than Jews can also be victims of genocide.

      This is considered controversial because Israel, which attempts to position itself as representing Jewish interests, is perpetrating a genocide on non-Jews as we speak. They deny that they are committing genocide.

        ohh, that makes more sense. I thought it meant never again but just for the Jews, otherwise it’s okay. Actually my take seems more accurate currently

        Well but if they deny they’re committing genocide then they still can be against genocide right?

        This is a rhetorical statement btw

          I agree with your rhetorical statement, but I think I’m missing some implication.

          It’s a true statement, I just don’t understand what you’re pointing out.

            Rhetorical because they’re fucking hypocrites who believe that killing Palestinians is the right thing to do so they get to do whatever they want.

      It’s a variant of

      Never Again Means Never Again For Anyone

      Which is used these days to protest the Holocaust perpetrators supporting Israel.
