Israel Supporters Are Some Of The Worst People In The World by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!
Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):
No political faction I have ever interacted with is as immoral and dishonest, or so frequently says things that are so jaw-droppingly disgusting I am sure I must be misinterpreting it at first. I have never tangled with a more odious group of people.
Yesterday I shared a tweet about how Doctors Without Borders are now encountering children as young as five in Gaza who say they want to die because of the horrific things they have experienced during Israels ongoing genocidal onslaught.
It is just about the most awful thing you can imagine, tiny children being so traumatized that they consciously do not want to go on living.
It boggles the mind to even contemplate it. But almost as soon as I shared my post, I got a response from an Israel supporter saying, "Gazans support Hamas. Hamas conducts Islamic extremist terror. Gazans should reconsider their support for Hamas."
Later I got another response from an account with a bunch of flag emojis next to its name saying, "Before shedding tears for the people of Gaza, remember that they created Hamas, elected it, supported it, supplied it, worked for it, hid it, sheltered it, filled its ranks and celebrated all its atrocities."
I received another response from an anonymous account saying "FAFO", an acronym for "F-ck Around, Find Out". Used here, it means that those small children who want to die because of the horrors they have experienced actually deserve it, because they are Gazan. Which is also essentially what the other two responders were saying as well.

Imagine being that way.
Imagine being so warped and twisted inside that you think that is a sane and appropriate way to respond to unthinkable news about small children being so traumatized by mass military violence that they want to die.
This happens all the time.
The other day I shared a report from a United States of American doctor saying that IDF snipers have been picking off Gazan children with single shots to the head, and I again received a comment from someone saying "F-ck around and find out."
They are essentially standing over a pile of child corpses and puffing their chests like a guy who just won a pub brawl.
It might seem kind of petty to focus on individual comments from random social media accounts, but this happens so often, and I see other people talking about it too - I just saw a screenshot of a guy saying "f-ck around and find out" in response to that gut-wrenching photo of a dead Palestinian girl ripped apart by an Israeli airstrike in Rafah earlier this month.
So this is definitely a symptom of something profoundly ugly lurking in the underbelly of our society that is worth drawing some attention to.
"please see here:"
If you do not interact with many Zionists in your day to day life or do not have a large enough profile to be constantly swarmed by Israel apologists you might be unaware that this is happening, but the vitriol I have been seeing from Israel supporters on social media platforms since October 7 has been one of the most shocking and disturbing things I have ever witnessed.
Every single day these last four and a half months I have been inundated with comments from Israel supporters excusing the most monstrous acts imaginable in the most monstrous ways imaginable.
People calling for the total destruction of Gaza. People saying the Gazans deserve what is happening to them. Saying the sickest shit you can possibly think of in response to news of terrible things happening to innocent children.
Over the years I have butted heads with pretty much every political faction in the English-speaking world at one point or another, and I can honestly say that Israel supporters are by far the absolute worst.
No political faction I have ever interacted with is as immoral and dishonest, or so frequently says things that are so jaw-droppingly disgusting I am sure I must be misinterpreting it at first. I have never tangled with a more odious group of people.
When israel supporters say stuff like "what did hamas expect" and "f-ck around and find out" this is all I hear-an actual goblin (gobloid3) November 24, 2023
And to be clear I am not talking about a faction of just Israelis or Jews here; a huge percentage of these awful comments come from Christian Zionists and American rightists, with a decent smattering of Hindu nationalists from India who will support any excuse to cheerlead the killing of Muslims.
The only unifying feature I am seeing in the faction I am talking about is that they support Israel and its actions in Gaza. What I am saying here will be spun as antisemitic by Israel supporters no matter how I put it because Israel supporters are manipulative liars, but to be clear this is not about Jews at all.
There is something seriously, seriously wrong with these people. They have no interest in truth or morality; all they care about is supporting their favorite ethnostate and murdering Palestinians.
I guess when you are already able to numb your heart and your mind enough to support an apartheid state that whose existence requires nonstop violence and abuse, when that state ramps up its atrocities to historic levels you are not going to have enough of a conscience to see anything wrong with it.
Anyway that is my rant for today.
Just had to get that out.
I do not know what to do about any of this, but it is probably worth bringing some consciousness to.
