Trying to find evidence that the IOF has done bad things is anti-Semitic.

I think I’ve finally figured out her deal. You know how there are people who say “if you don’t support Israel, you are anti-Semitic”? It’s a terrible, bad-faith argument; and obviously just used as a cudgel to silence any legit criticism of Israel.

Fartlow actually takes it one step further. She thinks that it’s anti-Semitic to not support Zionism. If you think Palestinians have any right to live in Palestine, you’re anti-Semitic. I have never once seen her actually state what she think should happen to the Palestinian people. I have no doubt she would be fine if the IOF killed every Palestinian. She’s an absolute monster, but I do take a little comfort in the fact that appears to be absolutely miserable and lives in a hell of her own making - where she has a breakdown every time she hears about someone in the world chanting “free Palestine”.

    She also went on to post this gem:

    If only the Palestinians made the trains run on time support would be understandable, alas.

        When it comes to the big stuff that is prominent in the news, liberals will usually do the “situation is hard, but there really isn’t any other choice, so regrettable” routine. But if you look for a rare Armenia/Azerbaijan post, liberals will discuss the situation in exactly this sort of way. Well, Armenia isn’t really in an important geostrategic location, they don’t have any good natural resources. A highly upvoted post just concluded “Armenia doesn’t have much to offer”.
