    Israel is a uniquely evil entity that has lost its legitimacy as a nation state. Why on Earth would any sane human go to a parade for it?

      I like how people here have this delusional idea that sovereign legitimacy is based on morality rather than hard power. Countries exist solely because they have the means to exclusively control the territory they occupy. Sovereignty is not given, but taken. It’s why the Taliban rules Afghanistan however they want even though they have no legitimacy in the world.

      If morality was the basis of sovereignty, we would have like maybe a dozen countries who would be worthy of being soverign.

    Israel has no right to exist

    Let alone a fucking parade

    Israel should be dissolved and returned to the Palestinians. It’s Palestine.

    The current population of wrongfully placed settlers can fuck off and move somewhere else.

    Y’all can figure it out, after all you’re the fiercest and most adaptive people in the world, right?

    Not to mention you’re narcissistic enough to believe you’re chosen by God over all other human beings on Earth.

    Judaism is a fascinating faith but Zionism and by extension the entire failed experiment that has been known as Israel is just a disgusting warped off shoot that needs to be extinguished.

    If there is a “Jewish day Parade” I’ll be there, but specifically Israel is super problematic; don’t know how any sane person can support anymore

      This. “Hey, instead of parading for the ethnicity that has been victim of discrimination and genocide for millenia, let’s parade for the white colonizers larping as said ethnicity to gain Victim Points™!”

        I am genuinely curious who you believe is ethnically Jewish if Israel is white colonizers pretending to be Jewish? I hear somewhat frequently that there aren’t “real” Jews anymore because intermixing with Europeans (and other ethnicities) diluted their bloodline too much, and it feels not only doublethinky but almost eugenicist.

            Oh no doubt, it is both a theocracy and a racial supremacy, with lighter skinned Jewish supremacy to boot. My concern has been with the seeming erasure of Jewish ethnicity through conflation with White Supremacy as the big societal evil of our time.

            It just skeeves me out and feels basically racist when people call Israel white European settler colonialism. Like only the evil European White Man could be so evil, so they obviously aren’t “real” Jews. It has the same energy as white supremacists not counting Jews as white, just flipped and repackaged. Maybe it’s just racial purity testing in general not sitting right with me, I don’t like it when either political side does it.
