“political post”… I didn’t need to read the article to know he was speaking out for Palestine.

I wouldn’t be surprised if an organization like Canary Mission has been lobbying the German government to push these kinds of attacks.

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.

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…

Report: Israel Has Violated Lebanon Ceasefire 100 Times in Just First Week

Right… because Germany could never, ever do something like this.

Germany denies visa extension to Palestinian brothers due to security concerns rising from ‘pro-Palestinian sympathies’.

Germany must “finally deport on a large scale those who have no right to stay” in the country, Chancellor Olaf Scholz has declared in the wake of massive pro-Palestinian protests and incidents of anti-Semitism.

Germany Is Threatening to Deport Palestinian Refugees for Their Activism

Germany’s unprecedented crackdown on pro-Palestinian speech

Federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz invited the war criminal and genocide perpetrator Benjamin Netanyahu to visit Germany. Merz has assured Netanyahu that he will find “ways and means” not to arrest him in Germany, despite an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court—a clear violation of international law.

EDIT: You were the one spewing misinformation, it has been reported by dozens of journal outlets as of now.

read the room, trying to whitewash a genocidal entity is weird and disturbing.

They only need to arrest a dozen to make most of these 70 million harmless.

hi fbi

zionists hate this one trick: exposing their degeneracy to the World, keep on down voting. The People see you.

The European Union needs to ditch this quasi-state.

Fuck the US, fuck Russia, fuck China, and all these warmongering imperialists that want to subjugate the world to their oligarch elites.

Yup, especially since his last visit to israel and the European elections.

It’s certain that they are propping him up, but he needs a lot of work to be credible in a national election. From my understanding and what I’ve seen, he’s charismatic on social media but loses all his appeal during debates because he’s stupid.

If the European Union wants a future, it must get rid of these fascists and their oligarch handlers."

Scary time, hopefully France do the right thing or else it might be the end of Europe.
