Yeah so Israel is a democracy. You're saying a democratic country is a Nazi country.
I think a common thing among Nazis is to try to de-legitimize democracies. Trump does it, Putin does it, and you're doing it while claiming they're the Nazis. What does that make you?
Also Hamas came into power by winning a plurality of the votes and refused to hold elections after that. Their goal is to at best ethnically cleanse and at worst commit genocide to remove people of a certain ethnicity from a region. They use extreme violence and a narrative about past injustices to maintain power. They keep people in a perpetual state of angry fervor to control them. That all doesn't seem just a little fashy to you?
How do you know when you're not the one being a Nazi accusing your enemies of being a Nazi? Is it just that you're always not the Nazi and everyone that disagrees with you is a Nazi? How are you different from Trump, Musk, Putin, etc?
Israel is a nationalistic state. They take away the rights of any Palestinian living in their stolen lands. More then 70% of the Jewish inhabitants of Israel oppose their government but the government tries to continue conflict to maintain power under the wartime government law. That is undermining democracy.
I'm not a nazi, I'm a anachrist fighting right wing extremism. I do not try to undermine democracy, I try to uphold it.
I don't think you understand what a nazi is. It stands for national socialist, you know, like Hitler. A socialist society for only your own ethnicity and to getting rid of anyone else. Like Israel does right now.
