Genocide.
But hey, it’s only genocide until they are all gone. After that it’s all cookies and rainbows.
Checks with north American natives…
Yup this checks out.
Smallpox bitches. Germ warfare.
“Genocide!”
“It’s not genocide, they’re still there…”
later
“Genocide, they are all gone!”
“Never again 😢”

Oh? God told you to take their homes away? With violence?
That changes everything! Please continue.
For those not in the know, this is literally the founding story of Israel - God told them to genocide the Canaanites and steal their land. What we’re seeing here is violence that continues to be perpetuated by religious traditions (about events which never really happened, according to biblical scholars).
Religion is the worst invention ever
And the state of Israel the second worst
What’s the verse or chapter or whatever where this can be found?
Lots of places (like… so, so many places), but here’s one in Numbers 31 where they kill all the men, most of the women, and all male children. In fact, Moses commands them to keep killing because it wasn’t genocidey enough the first time.
7 And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.
10 And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their goodly castles, with fire.
11 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of beasts.
15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
Holy shit… I always hear about this and that being in the Bible or whatever book but I’ve never seen the specifics. It’s way worse than I thought.
Thanks for the example.
But I was emphatically told this was not what they were doing by several apologists! They wouldn’t have lied, would they?!
Maybe not the apologists, they’re just drinking the piss flavored Kool aid.
Those making the piss punch could use another type of punch. All the propagandists, everywhere.
A lot of focus on lemmy is on billionaires and not nearly enough on propagandists. It’s the propagandists that enable the billionaires to continue, and in this case it’s the propagandists that “allow” for arguments over reality to exist.
I wish hell were real, it would be full to the brim with propagandists, billionaires, and fundamental religious nutters. And who am I kidding, probably me too lol
That’s not what deport means. That’s displace.
At this scale that’s Ethnic Cleansing.
They have been doing this for more than 70 years. Israel exists on stolen Palestinian land.
I mean they also need Lebensraum.
“Nonono, I was told it was Hamas!” 😐
what the fuck is wrong with humans
We’re greedy fucks and vulnerable to bubbles. There’s a concept that humans have a strong internal moral compass and some of us might. Most people though, just go with the flow, and let the people around them guide their morals - this seems to happen especially awfully in religious communities. Weirdly enough a fair number of awful religious people seem aware of how immoral they are and repeat the thought “Without God’s guidance we’d be animals” which just highlights how awful they actually are.
Where did I hear that before?
They will openly say this and still the US does nothing to stop it
These radical Zionists (usually Kahanists and similar) are just as bad as Hamas and other terrorist groups.
Just like North America, when the British sent their religious fanatics to colonize their new colonies.
Religious Zionists, who believe the Jewish people have divine authority to rule from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, make up only around 14% of Israel’s population. But in recent years they have greatly expanded their influence in the military, the government and society at large,
“In recent years…” What? Israel itself is a Zionist project since the beginning, from Hovevei Zion to Herzl to Haganah to Ben-Gurion to Sharon and Netanyahu.
