Oh look, I would consider nothing in this comment antisemitism. That’s valid criticism of what Israel currently does. A tad ignorant of the use of civilians as shields by the Hamas in this very unequal war, but it allows for a normal discussion.
I think it’s valid to casually use a state’s name as an actor instead of always pointing out its the government. Not always applicable without differentiating too little, but valid in principle.
But that’s different from making each Israeli responsible, or calling for the abolishment of the state, both of which we see quite often on Lemmy these days (and before)
Antisemitism was always there. The problem of palestinians is embedded into it, because Antisemites count on the continued suffering of the palestinians. They want dying palestinian children they can blame on Israel, and with the palestinian children dying you can see their eyes brighten up these days. Because now they can go rampant with their undifferentiated hatred against all Israel and all Jews.
But that's consistent. Palestines are Semites, too, after all. Just don't try to hide your hatred behind "concern".
Unlike for example what Myanmar did to the Rohingya, neither the UN nor any human rights organizations of note have used the term "genocide" related to what Israel does or did.
In the 3-D-Test this statement easily fulfills "double standards" and "demonization" and is clearly antisemitic.
Yeah, but let's also not ignore that antisemitism in the past weeks has become wider spread than for a long long time, and often is hidden behind various criticism of Israel. For distinguishing legitimate criticism of Israel from antisemitism there's the 3-D test.
I think that question is totally normal in your age group. Why not, instead of telling your barber something, ask him? And if he can’t help, try a different one next time.
Your bike doesn't sound like I'd want to ride it up or down even a small hill. Unlike the Netherlands, many places on earth have a 3rd dimension, putting additional requirements on a bike.
We're in a consolidation phase. The streaming market is now well established and the market shares are largely settled. In the past many services ran at a loss or without much profit to establish their market share. Now the market is in a phase where they try to figure out how much people are willing to pay for that service that they're used to.
They'll continue to raise prices as long as enough people remain to pay them. All of the services.
In my eyes it comes down to the possibilities of building up and maintaining some modest wealth. Most prominent examples are housing prices. With rising prices as we've seen in the past 2 decades, many people are forced to remain renters instead of being able to buy their own house or appartment. That's wealth distribution upwards.
If you have some modest amount of money, say some 10k EUR, trying to invest that such that it doesn't loose value is close to impossible. The whole finance industry seems to be set up to suck up any gains that these investments can get. As soon as you can juggle a few 100k EUR, a whole other range of investments opens up to you. That's wealth distribution upwards.
In Germany (I don't know about other countries) if you work to live and earn little, you're taxed little, but you don't earn enough to save anything anyways. If you earn more, you are taxed much more heavily than someone merely lives off a passive income. That's wealth distribution upwards.
I wouldn't be surprised, if this graph doesn't concern itself with passive income anyways.
