I should have added an /s.

It was a bad joke, as in democrats are yet to do any meaningful work to prevent the overthrow of the government, they are kind of invisible and passive in regards to all the mischief and crimes committed by the current administration.

I agreed with your statement.

He clearly stated “zionists”.

Most zionists aren’t jews.

You, rushing to conflate zionism with jews is antisemitism.

Okay, I understand.

I would recommend using this website, it’s really useful when it comes to check journals reliability.

Never seen an other story as downplayed as this one though.

You weren’t the only one to discuss the credibility of an already proven reliable journal.

It shifts the conversation from talking about the deportation of EU citizens to “this looks fake”, “it’s misinformation”… also this post has been heavily downvoted.

Just weird.

Kamala Harris is a good person (politic wise) but powerless against this tide of fascism. I have this conviction that deep down she wasn’t fully part of all these transgressions so I concur with your statement.

surprising what?

I understand.

Let’s agree to disagree a bit.

Way to downplay what’s at stake, it’s sadistic, psychopathic and cruel.

nah we already have sanders and aoc it’s enough, we still want to conserve decorum /s

fucking thank you

Isn’t it weird that all these individuals are coming in droves to the comments to cast doubts on the veracity of an article from reputable journal? Almost feels like a coordinated effort.

Edit: Thread on europe experienced a similar situation.

History also tried to kill people like me, yet I’m not engaging in a genocide to steal land and create a quasi-state resembling every aspect of the countries that tried to eradicate people like me.

Funny how people with similar experiences can be so far away in terms of values.

I see your point but simply put:

I believe there are both tolerant and intolerant religious people, just as there are tolerant and intolerant atheists.

Thus, if we want to tackle or end intolerance, focusing solely on religion is ineffective and won’t solve the problem, as religion is not the root cause of intolerance.

Rather, it’s the excuse used by the egos of hateful individuals to justify their irrational hatred. If religions were removed, people would simply find new ideologies or beliefs to hide behind.

What should be done is improving education, encouraging self introspection as well as being oneself, demonstrating that being empathetic is not a weakness and that we are all stuck on the same small rock in the middle of a seemingly endless void which is kind of weird.

Why not? it does not infringe on anyone.

However, recognize the irony in claiming that all religions dehumanize outsiders, right before labeling religious people as subhuman. (The tolerance paradox does not work in this case)

I hear your opinion but it’s not accurate and can lead to dangerous roads.

You must try to understand that the majority of the world has been exposed to incommensurable pain and suffering. From an anthropological perspective, it is rational and logical for the brain to protect itself by creating beliefs. Through social and cultural processes, these beliefs become embedded in societies.

Claiming that this is a subhuman trait is disingenuous because it is in human nature to seek explanations for what we observe in our environment. We are wired that way.

These actions should only be evaluated through the lens of this principle: “The freedom of one ends where the freedom of another begins.”

There are religious people who are kinder than atheists, and atheists who are more evil than religious people. Today, religion may be used as a political tool for authoritarian regimes, but tomorrow it could be something else.

Eradicating religion would not solve anything.

I would argue that even though they identified a bit with Christianity, they weren’t religious. The nazis used lots of christian symbolisms and rhetorics due to cultural heritage as a way of garnering support.

But, stating that nazis were religious as in they adopted clear doctrines and rituals is fallacious, their philosophical beliefs were more akin to pantheism than anything else.

Many of the early leaders of the Zionist movement, such as Theodor Herzl, were secular or atheist, emphasizing Jewish cultural and national identity over religious belief.

In contemporary Israel, about 45% of Jews identify as secular or non-religious, and secular Zionists—who may self-identify as atheist or traditional—constitute roughly 55% of the population.

Maybe they use it as a cover to justify their crimes against humanity, but as another person said, blaming it entirely on religion is a cheap deflection that tries to overshadow the root causes of such madness. When reading your first comment, I was somewhat in agreement, but your last one makes it seem like religion is the main reason for their deeds, as if the other 7 billion religious humans act the same way they do…
