Antiair weapons don’t fight or kill the air.

Antisemitism was introduced as a more polite and scientific sounding euphemism for anti-Judaism. It’s just like racists today calling themselves race realists.

The term Antisemitism was invented in German, so no inherent limitation of English. Anti comes from Ancient Greek in the first place, so no this isn’t a limitation of English.

There are many terms and words used, which aren’t simply the sum of its parts.

A hammer has nothing to do with ham for example.

The West? The colonial rulers used divide and conquer to divide these populations. However that was decades earlier and happened all over the world without leading to genocide every time.

Africans have their own agency. They are able to commit genocide just like white people or actually all humans.

The wokes called my joke racist, so I became a full on fascist. It’s their fault, really.

Look, it’s you.

During the last month, I have introduced real life Israelis and Palestinians to each other. I have helped two Palestinians deal with German bureaucracy.

That’s the most recent stuff. A complete list would take too long to write down.

Do you think these murders help Palestinians?

The genocide of the Tigray had three times the deaths and only happened two years ago.

The Rwandan genocide and Hutu genocide during the Congo war killed hundreds of thousands in the 1990s.

This is only the most recent events that came to mind.

Shooting Jews at an event for Jews in a Jewish museum looks kind of antisemitic.

Antisemites have always blamed the Jews for Antisemitism.

Antisemitism only has ever meant Jew hatred. Semitic is otherwise a linguistic term.

This argument is asinine.

The context is important. A UN official said 14,000 children would die in 48 hours. As it turns out that was a grossly exaggerated claim.

a report from the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) which stated 14,100 severe cases of acute malnutrition are expected to occur among children aged six to 59 months between April 2025 and March 2026.

The IPC report says this could take place over the course of about a year - not 48 hours

Weissbrod called that out.

It was a networking event for Jewish people at a Jewish museum.

These deaths are also on the people who demand to globalize the intifada.

People getting killed in a warzone is different than political murders.

It’s not about who, it’s about context.

News reporting is also about new and unexpected events.

Consider this: People being killed in Sudan or Myanmar gets no attention compared to Gaza.

That’s a what globalize the intifada means in practice.

Many Arabs celebrated when Israel killed Nasrallah. https://www.newsweek.com/why-arab-street-celebrating-israels-killing-hezbollah-chief-nasrallah-opinion-1960901

The best new use of woke is the woke right.

The author James Lindsay has defined it in similar terms, as “a victimhood-based identity politics” whose “victim groups are whites, Christians, men, and straight people”. He argues that the movement is “roughly intersectional” insofar as it is obsessed with identity politics and a grievance relating to anti-white racism. “Like their counterparts on the Woke Left,” Lindsay writes, “the Woke Right have accepted as fact that there’s a conspiracy against people like them and that their only real hope is to lean into the identity grouping and advocate for collective power under that heading”. In these terms, the “woke right” is a kind of ideological doppelgänger, whose members exhibit the same precisionist and absolutist tendencies of their leftist counterparts.

Pierce Morgan uses it more and more often against right wingers to great effect.

Hezbollah has killed far more Arabs than they ever damaged Israel. Without Hezbollah Assad would have lost in Syria years ago. They have also turned Lebanon into a failed state for decades.

Hezbollah are horrible all around. They are ineffective at fighting Israel and great at killing Arabs.

I see freifunk networks more rarely nowadays. They also are notoriously slow. Usually the mobile phone network is faster, even in Germany.

Woke is now a synonym for Social Justice warrior.

A person or movement prioritizing moralizing outrage about minor grievances over actual effective societal change.

As my half Nigerian cousin likes to say on issues like white people wearing dreadlocks: “That’s something only white privileged women care about.”
