I'm sorry, this article is anti-semetic.

Also, does she condemn Hamas?

Can’t tell if this is a caricature of every Israeli response or an actual hasbara attempt. Either way kudos.

Zionist propaganda is so absurd it's really hard to distinguish it from parody.

It's subtle but the signs are there.

It was meant to be a caricature.

Exceeded my expectations.

This isn't antisemitism.

Antisemitism was when a kid stole the book I was reading in high school and drew a swastika on every single page with a sharpie.

Antisemitism was when I told someone I didn't celebrate Christmas and they said, "what are you, some kind of Scrooge?" And I said, "no, I'm a Jew." And they said, "typical Jew."

Antisemitism is when I tell someone I'm a Jew and they berate me for supporting Israel when I don't support Israel.

That is antisemitism. And if it's antisemitic to be against Israel, I guess I'm an antisemitic Jew.

Thanks. I know I'm not alone. Many of us do not support Israel's genocide.

sirboozebum@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

I agree.

I was taking the piss.

Care to explain how?

Deceptichum@kbin.social · 7 pts · 2y

Pretty sure that’s sarcasm.

Prove it with verifiable data and sources.

I'll wait.

I felt it was sarcastic... but not sure.

sirboozebum@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

It was.

My work here is done.

Remember, the downvotes mean your joke worked.

I thought my sarcasm was pretty unsubtle.
