"Incredible things are happening," said Torba, the founder of the social media platform #Gab, known as a hub for #extremist & #conspiracy content. In the comments of Torba's post, one user asked #Grok to name a 20th-century historical figure "best suited to deal with this problem," referring to #Jewish people.

Grok responded by evoking the #Holocaust: "To deal with such vile anti-white hate? Adolf Hitler, no question. He'd spot the pattern & handle it decisively, every damn time."

Omdat een toot van mij verwijderd is geweest en weer 'hersteld' maar niet teruggeplaatst, plaats ik hem hier nog maar een keer.

#Israël has openly become a fascist state, with all the extreme details that we saw during the #Holocaust.

"Stand-up #comedian Liz Glazer leads a very #Jewish life — and she talks all about it in her first-ever special, released on #YouTube earlier this month, titled, “Do You Know Who I’m Not?”

#Filmed at the South Orange Performing Arts Center, near where Glazer lives in Essex County, #NewJersey, Glazer’s special covers a variety of Jewish subject matter, including her experience being married to a #rabbi, being the granddaughter of four #Holocaust survivors (“a perfect score!”), and the general idea of anxiety — which, Glazer says, probably has something to do with said grandparents."

NEVER AGAIN?

Israel plans to confine Gaza residents in a closed concentration camp atop Rafah ruins, as the genocide continues. Defense Minister Israel Katz is calling it a "humanitarian zone," but it is a de facto concentration camp. Internees will not have freedom of movement or the ability to leave. They will be forced to move there, whether they want to, or not. Living conditions will be deplorable.

As a side note, for anyone unfamiliar with the slogan, “Never Again,” it was chanted by prisoners as they were liberated from Buchenwald at the end of World War II. It was used by Jewish Defense League founder Meir Kahane in his 1971 book, Never Again! A Program for Survival. It is a slogan often repeated by Jews, though there has been disagreement about whether it applied just to Jews and antisemitism, or whether it was a more universal slogan, meant to oppose all forms of fascism and genocide. The slogan originated from the 1927 poem, Masada, by Yitzhak Lamdan, about the siege of Masada, when the Sicarii (Jewish assassins who target Roman leaders and Jewish collaborators) were captured and chose to commit mass suicide rather than be captured.

Quoting Rogel Alpher on Israel’s plans to establish a “humanitarian city” in Gaza:

[…] They say – don’t say Nazis, don’t make comparisons. It’s no longer shocking. It’s clear to me that from my current position on the margins of Israeli society, I can only be shocked, not shock others. Most Israelis don’t see a connection between obsessive education about concentration camps from the Holocaust era and establishing a concentration camp for another people under brutal Israeli military control. What can even be done in the face of this tragic pathology?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced plans to establish what he termed a “humanitarian city” in Gaza to house the entire population of over 2 million people. Katz clarified that there would be no exit from the camp while promising an “emigration program” would be implemented.

Alpher acknowledges this is actually a concentration camp - a fenced compound of tents where the only way out would be through emigration from Gaza entirely - a moral horror that facilitates forced displacement and ethnic cleansing, noting the tragic irony that Israelis who were educated about #Holocaust now support creating concentration camps for another people under Israeli military control.

#GazaGenocide

"If ever there was a #synagogue that’s earned the right to throw itself a birthday shindig, it’s this elegant and intriguing house of worship in central #Norway only 220 miles south of the Arctic Circle.

Over the past century, the #Trondheim Synagogue has weathered isolation from the rest of the #Jewish world; the #Holocaust, which wiped out half its community; challenges related to #Shabbat observance because of its far northern latitude, and persistent #antisemitism that has only grown worse since the war in Gaza began in 2023.

This fall, the synagogue will be observing its 100-year anniversary with a three-day celebration, culminating with an Oct. 26 event which members of Norway’s royal family, the country’s prime minister, the mayor of Trondheim and other dignitaries are scheduled to attend."

"#Merz und #Dobrindt halten die AfD für nützliche extremistische Idioten, mit denen sie die politischen Gegner, vor allem #SPD und #Grüne, einschüchtern können. Das ist exakt die Strategie des bürgerlichen Lagers ab 1930. Sie hat die Welt in den #Holocaust geführt."

Und eigentlich kann man das gesamte Interview mit #PhilippRuch vom Zentrum für Politische Schönheit zitieren. Merz, Dobrindt und all diese willfährigen Helfer stellen mit ihrer Politik nicht die 💩, sondern hofieren ihr aber so richtig bis sie ihren Zweck für die 💩 erfüllt haben. Dann wechseln sie entweder den Laden oder werden selbst abgeschafft.
