No. No its not.
yeah the difference is that the victims of this genocide are acceptable for you
Wow. If you're referring to me, you're making an awful lot of assumptions there... I'd suggest checking out some of my recent replies maybe.
For "looking at my recent posts" that's a really novel approach :P .
looking at your recent posts is not a novel approach to looking at your recent posts. unless you’re trying to suggest this is not in fact a recent post of yours
Yes it is, "the jews were starved because they wouldn't work, it's their fault" is a common form of holocaust denial
After some thought, you’re right. What Hen is doing is much worse: denying the genocide is happening as it is being carried out
It explicitly is.
"explicitly" ? I'm sorry, I'm missing how: "its misleading to portray a child with medical preconditions / an ill child as a typically starving child" (even if I hate the apologia of Israels actions + the crude ~ accusation of antisemitism thrown in to boot) is equal to "Holocaust didn't happen"
“Anne Frank died of typhus” is a common Holocaust denying statement. Saying “the children aren’t starving because we’re keeping food from them, he’s starving because of an illness” is the same vein as saying “the Nazis didn’t kill Anne Frank, typhus did”.
Ok, I get what you're saying here! And I'm afraid I have to agree that its very easy to take that impression from the OPs messages ... It might be me reading my own "media critique" into their take, but I do, myself, view the images presented in the context they were as somewhat misleading. 1/2
But ask me about the effect they had, and I can only say "about fucking time", so I don't really see any negative outcomes at all from the entire episode. (The Israeli government can certainly stuff it). 2/2
