That comparison betrays your ignorance of history and present and is blatant antisemitism.

Israeli prime minister Golda Meir said she’s a Palestinian.

The use of the word Palestinian changed over time. Before the establishment of Israel Palestinian was often used specifically to refer to Jews living in the holy land. Lots of Jewish founded institutions like airlines, newspapers, sports teams, orchestras were named Palestinian. They changed their names after Israel was founded.

The Arabs used Palestinian as their national identity only after Israel was established. The Palestinian identity as we know it today coalesced in the 1960s.

Before the British Mandate for Palestine, the Arabs in the region tended to identify as Syrian.

Those evil white supremacists Jews got out of their way to save Ethiopian Jews with covert airlifts. There were continuous efforts to bring Ethiopia Jews to Israel, lead by Natanyahu among others.

Sure there’s prejudice around skin color and discrimination, but isn’t this the case all around the world? Ethiopian Israelis have their struggles, but overall their community is doing very well. Bibi Netanyahu has many times publicly denounced racism against Ethiopian Jews and met with victims of violence. Here Bibi celebrates an Ethiopian IDF officer publicly as a hero to standing ovations. There are special scholarships for Ethiopian Jews to higher education and integrate them better into society. The IDF makes an effort in this field as well.

Let’s listen to what Ethiopian Jews have to say about this,

Why do black Palestinians in Gaza mostly live in a quarter named Al Abeed meaning literally slave?

Nazi-style movements, Zionists

Oh it’s blatant antisemitism time again.

I know more about these things than your propagandized distortions.

the ones who kept working with the Nazis even after World War II started

What are you referring to?

Likud didn’t exist until the 1970s. There are far more extreme parties than Likud. Smotrich and Ben Gvir are not Likudniks for example.

Netanyahu was born in Tel Aviv.

reactionary Zionism

What’s that supposed to be? Do you mean revisionist Zionism?

Please source that quote.

You’re welcome to disagree with me that our two people’s are intrinsically linked to each other by history and culture

I agree with that part.

Your abuse of the word antisemitism is what I take issue with.

No, the ones who vote for Netanyahu‘s Likud and other right wingers are mostly Mizrahi from the Middle East and North Africa. Ashkenazi are more likely to vote left or centrist parties.

Don’t know what you mean by hardcore Zionist, as there’s not really a political movement named like that.

You fell victim to propaganda and framing tailored to your western prejudices.

Paul Stamets is a real life leading mycologist. The Star Trek character is named after him.

And yes, mushrooms are super cool.

Have you ever seen Israelis and actual Palestinians? Palestinians are pretty diverse themselves regarding skin color and looks. There are Palestinians with African features and dark skin, as well as ones with red hair and blue eyes. The region at the crossroads between Africa and Asia has always had different kinds of people moving there.

More than half of Jewish Israelis have ancestors who were expelled from Muslim and Arab countries. They don’t typically look like Northern Europeans, but more like Arabs.

Being able to pass for white at times and actually being accepted as white is not the same.

Palestinians is antisemitic. it runs even a little deeper than simply “Palestinians are semitic

Antisemitism only means hatred of Jews and nothing else. Trying to water the term down like you’re doing is extremely bad faith and usually done to give cover to antisemites.

That said, yes, many Palestinians have Jewish ancestors.

once there are no more identifiably Palestinian people left to kill, next will come the Jews

That’s some shizo level rambling.

Username checks out.

In Christianity it typically exists. The support for it in scripture isn’t very strong though.

Hell is arguing about the existence of hell on Lemmy, I guess.

The actual state of Linux distributions.

While forgiveness is good, I’m not sure forgiving all sin just for following Jesus is so great.

It’s literally thoughts are more important than acts. I’m not convinced.

Ubuntu‘s proprietary format? How would that even impact your intended use? Don’t get dragged into all the silly flame wars around purity of FOSS and such.

Linux distributions are more similar than different. The distribution you use matters less than online discussions by enthusiasts make you believe. Many of these ricers and tinkerers think it’s fun to fix snd troubleshoot their system all the time.

Choosing a distribution with a large user base, stability, reliability, and good support is more important than a shiny feature.

Many of the small distributions don’t support upgrading to new releases of the same distribution for example. You have to reinstall instead.

Performance differences are negligible. Just go with one of the big distributions like Ubuntu or Mint.
