Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Edit: I don't know where you're from, but in a country with mandatory service, this rhetoric is straight up dangerous. To take a teenager and say they are forced to go into the army or go to jail...they're all gonna go and do it, even if they don't like the government, don't support them, and are dragging their feet the whole time. If this rhetoric is allowed to continue, you have shunned any possible allies that actually have power to overturn the Israeli government.
Do you think that is good evidence?
Hasan is a twitch streamer, Israel and the IDF can stop the genocide any time because they are the ones doing it, all Hasan can do is make videos. Who really has the power here?
Edit One further point, your argument is that Hasan's perspective isn't helpful for a certain political outcome in a COUNTRY called ISRAEL. That is DIFFERENT than judaism. You are still conflating, even in your framing of this, the idea of judaism and Israel. It is not inherently antisemitic to believe in political tactics that you don't think will work for an outcome in a specific NATION, even if your argument was correct it fails at a basic level to identify something genuinely antisemitic in Hasan Piker because there isn't.
