Chancellor Friedrich Merz has said migrants are a factor behind the rise of antisemitism in Germany, vowing to combat “this problem.”
I’m not antisemite BUT the Israeli government are a bunch of hypocrites and criminals . And the world is still looking to the other side… and now blaming on immigrants?
Or maybe the shit that israel is doing, is more responsible for it? I do not know, just, maybe? A bit?
Again and again this flawed logic where you either approve of everything Israel does or you are an antisemite… it’s high time we start distinguishing between the country of Israel and people of Jewish descent (Jewish people should learn the distinction too, seeing how this “antisemite” argument has been repeated by Jewish communities outside Israel).
As for Merz (and Germany, and Europe, and - alas - apparently the world in general), it’s a real shame that the moronic dichotomy of humanity into arbitrary “us” and “them” (and subsequent blaming of everything on “them”) is becoming mainstream rather than staying relegated to the far right (and groups of kids that bully other kids).
Ironically, this is the same exact world vision that gave us that nazi-fascism that so thoroughly embraced antisemitism and so methodically acted on it.
Crazy how literally everything is the migrants fault. You have to wait for your dentists appointment? Migrants fault! Nazis are the party with the second most votes? Migrants fault! Arson attacks against refugee homes? Believe it or not: migrants fault!
Typical CDU Nazi-Shit.
Do we have antisemitic immigrants? Yes. Do we have racist Germans? Yes. Do we have antisemitic Germans? Also yes.
CDU: Should we do something about the “bio”-German Nazis? Nah, let’s just blame foreigners, lest we offend our voter base or party members.
American playbook
And corrupt conservatives are an even bigger factor. Especially the ones that stoke the fires of fear and injustice.
Believe it or not, enacting genocide is the biggest cause
Deliver weapons to bomb people, act surprised when they flee and end up protesting the bombing, label them as terrorists and anti-semites.
Genius.
So stupid to redefine what antisemitism means and then to blame the migrants.
I’d be one of those ‘immigrants’ who he would call ‘antisemitic’, but once you look into it you realize I’m anti authorianism and anti genozide in any part of the world, not anti Jews.
I asked a Jewish person what about anti zionist Jews? I was informed they are self-hating Jews. I wonder if they know they hate themselves.
says the guy from a country known/infamous for thier anti-semitism.
Maybe in the 1940s, but I don’t think it’s known for antisemitism today.
According to the ADL, it’s the 7th least antisemitic country among the 103 surveyed. https://www.adl.org/adl-global-100-index-antisemitism
That says more about the ADL than it does about Germany. You really don’t have to look hard to find good old Christian antisemitism. Shit 20% of the country votes for the openly Nazi party.
Sincerely, somebody who lives in Germany and who wishes he could unlearn German
The ADL that excused Musks Nazi-Salute, despite Musk having spread antisemitic conspiracies on Twitter befote.
This man is a fucking disgrace.
