I'm afraid you're going to need some support for that statement.

My lived experience as an american...

Of course with 24/7 blanket pro-israel propaganda, neverending hollywood holocaust propaganda movies and god knows how many holocaust memorials, people will answer in a certain way when asked in a poll. Not to mention you can game polls to push an agenda.

But if the american people really viewed israel favorably, you wouldn't need 24/7 blanket pro-israel propaganda. You wouldn't need hollywood pumping out holocaust propaganda movies year after year. You wouldn't need to build dozens of holocaust memorials in the US.

You wouldn't need censorship against 'anti-semitism' even though israel is not a semitic state, while palestine funnily enough is a semitic state.

Your problem is you live in a censored bubble. Most americans either are ambivalent towards or have a negative view of israel. If what you believed was true, this thread wouldn't be flagged. Notice how every israel related thread is censored?

No, I don't have a "problem"; I just have a different opinion than you do.

But your problem IS: you refuse to admit when you've been proven wrong. You made a statement; I demonstrated it was incorrect. Game over.

Okay. I'm wrong. That's why 38 states have made it illegal to boycott israel. We love israel so much that you shouldn't be allowed to boycott it right? But then again, if we loved israel, nobody would boycott israel in the first place and we wouldn't need laws barring people from boycotting israel. It's amazing how many anti-american laws are created solely for israel's benefit.

You are right. We love israel. So lets tear down those silly holocaust memorials in the US and create memorials for native americans who were actually genocided in the US. A holocaust memorial in the US is as silly as a lenape genocide memorial in germany.

You should let the ADL and the thousands of israel aligned groups in the US that their services are no longer required.

America <heart> israel.

Fine w/me. We certainly don't love the terrorists. So I guess we're done here.

This is some remarkably absurd logic.

I doubt that the primary purpose of having memorials for and movies about the Holocaust, which happened 80 years ago in Europe, is to influence opinions on current foreign policy towards the Middle East.

I'm curious now: what's the difference between "experience" and "lived experience"?

Ah, interesting. Although since they use that BS term on Oprah all the time, I doubt that's their intent.

> neverending hollywood holocaust propaganda

In what way is there hollywood holocaust propaganda? You feel like the events described in the holocaust didn't really take place that way or do you think we should tone them down quite a bit because they "help" Israel too much?

Re:Ties between Google's Project Nimbus and Israel's military by Cupertino95014 on Tuesday July 16, 2024 @11:30AM (#40977482)
Bingo. The US was complicit in the Holocaust by not admitting Jews before the war.

But you're right: they're "tired of hearing about the Holocaust." I'll bet they are.
