Being against genocide is pretty controversial these days...

[–] KeavesSharpi@lemmy.ml 61 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml 34 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 18 points 4 weeks ago

No, they can't use Never Forget either. That's 9/11 now which was like 10 Holocausts in one day.

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

[–] limer@lemmy.ml 15 points 4 weeks ago

Always has been.

[–] davel@lemmy.ml 33 points 4 weeks ago

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

[–] VeryVito@lemmy.ml 33 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

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

What the fuck is wrong with everyone these days?

The structure of the moment in the West demands fascism, so lo and behold!

always makes me laugh that my guy went from talking about the Israhell futbol team into "Free Free Palestine" in under a minute thanks to the least annoying zionists present

Yeah, and it's bullshit that they did. Cowards

[–] Orcocracy@hexbear.net 23 points 4 weeks ago

Oh the printers messed this up, it’s supposed to say “Never? Again!”

  • Never again under my discretion only

I like the idea that the concept of something not happening several times is owned by Jews.

[–] 4grams@awful.systems 14 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

So their new slogan gonna be “ok, maybe just this one more time…for now.”

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!

I don't get it, what was the message sent by the first post?

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 38 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

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.

[–] pineapplelover@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

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

This is a rhetorical statement btw

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

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 8 points 4 weeks ago

It's a variant of

Never Again Means Never Again For Anyone

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

[–] marcela@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 4 weeks ago

It was too woke for them. It features People of Color.
