yeah, seen quite a bit of it on lemmy.
Why is it anti semitic to compare Israel to Nazis?
Antisemitism include the hate of israel, the country.
Imagine Saudi use Islamophobia as a defence when people criticise them. That would be fun.
Imagine
That’s the thing… with Israeli fascism, you don’t need to imagine
The new research, released by the UK-based Institute for Strategic Dialogue
afaik ISD is a pretty valid and neutral analysis group, and this is obviously something expected.
That being said, @Shardikprime@lemmy.world has been spamming posts here with secondary sources ranging from mediocre to twitter copypasta garbage pretending to be news.
Not asking for a ban because he’s posted some barely passable articles that have some additional info, especially on the Israeli side, but OP you really need to not spam with propaganda garbage. Quantity is not quality.

Appreciate your comment, thought the same.
I mean 9-11 didn’t make people anti-American. But the crazy invasion of Iraq did. And yes of course there were those that hated America before any of that happened as well.
No, but anti-Arabic sentiments and Islamophobia blew up in the US after 9/11…
This is the best summary I could come up with:
New research by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue found that in the days after Hamas’ attack antisemitic comments on conflict-related YouTube videos increased by 4963%.
Antisemitic remarks have soared online since Hamas’ surprise attack on Israel on 7 October, with YouTube totalling 15,720 hateful comments against Jewish people in the following week, according to a recent report.
Part of this surge can be explained by an increase in the number of videos focusing on Israel and Gaza published on the platform.
Comments contained dehumanising language, including comparisons between Israelis and Nazis, conspiracy theories - ranging from the idea that Jewish people control the media, as well as political and financial institutions, to the claim that the Hamas attack was a ‘false flag’ planted by Israel - and direct threats to Jewish figures and officials.
The 15,720 anti-semitic comments it found on YouTube videos represented a nearly 51-fold increase in the absolute volume of such remarks.
The British think tank also analysed fringe and alternative social media platforms like 4chan, Gab, and Telegram, finding that antisemitism has significantly increased there too, with 4chan reporting the highest volume of such remarks.
