"There Are No [insert Hated Nationality Or Ethnicity Here] Cilvilians/noncombatants" Is Standard Genocidal

"There are no [insert hated nationality or ethnicity here] cilvilians/noncombatants" is standard genocidal rhetoric, by the way. If you are saying this, you are giving a standard justification for genocide. It's right up there with the related tactic of insisting that all members of [insert hated nationality or ethnicity here] are guilty of some collective crime. I want to be clear here. These are both always very wrong, very bad, and very dangerous. It does not matter if you think you are right this time, and the people you are fighting are really evil and deserve it. Everyone who has ever said these things has believed that too.

By the way, you know how sometimes on this site we talk about right to repair and preventing excessive e-waste? If you're a visual learner, I have an example for you.

I replaced my computer fans today. Technically only one needed replaced, but I wasn't sure if it was one or both when I ordered parts, so I replaced both and the older-but-still-working fan will be stored in case I need a backup.

Here's what capitalism would have liked me to throw out.

an acer gaming laptop. it covers the space from my fingers back to my elbow and is about 2/3 that length in width. the side is visible and about the depth of three cell phones stacked on top of each other.

Here's what's actually going away.

the original, damaged computer fan. it fits in the palm of my hand. most of its very small bulk is made up of a flat metal plate that protects the fan blades. the whole thing is only as tall as my little finger is wide.

Oh, and also it cost $19 and an hour of my time instead of $900 and many hours doing setup and import.

Fix your stuff. I used a combination of my roommate's IT knowledge and a YouTube tutorial and now have a functioning fan (and my computer's guts are much cleaner). If it's a thing you can't do--for example, you have an iPhone and need a new screen--there are professionals out there who would be delighted to have your business and it'll still be cheaper than buying new most of the time. Sometimes you may have to convince them that yes, you really do want the $250 repair on the five-year-old laptop because you're not interested in shelling out a grand for a new one. Do it. It's worth it.

I don't support genocide.

That's why when people say openly, explicitly, and repeatedly that they want to kill all the Jews, I don't support them.

It's really that easy.

is it antisemitic, an incomplete guide

Is It Antisemitic, An Incomplete Guide

Image ID:

A flowchart.

Is it antisemitic? [proceed to next step]

Does it mention Jews? If yes: go to step 5 If no: go to step 3

Does it mention dogwhistles for Jews? (Zionist, elite, triple parentheses). If yes: go to step 4 If no: Probably not antisemitic

Do they seem aware they're using antisemitic dogwhistles? If yes: go to step 6 If no: probably not antisemitic

When it mentions Jews, is it in a good way? If yes: Probably not antisemitic If no: Go to step 6

Does it hold Jews/dogwhistles to a higher standard than others? If yes: Probably antisemitic If no: Go to step 7

Repeat antisemitic stereotypes? If yes: Go to step 8 If no: Maybe antisemitic

Is it a joke about antisemitism by and for Jews? If yes: probably not antisemitic If no: Go to step 9

Are you Jewish? If yes: Probably antisemitic If no: Go to step 10

Are Jews saying it's antisemitic? If yes: Probably antisemitic If not: probably not antisemitic

there's a really funny 3d printing controversy going on btw.

if you don't know, there's a very popular 3d printing model out there called "benchy". this is used for benchmarking your 3d printer because it's a difficult print and will help test it out.

There's A Really Funny 3d Printing Controversy Going On Btw.

this is so widely used that people make their own little versions of it, remixing the 3d model to make benchy look cooler and stuff. however, a new company owns the benchy license. they are sending copyright takedowns to all those who wrongfully uploaded the benchy model.

of course, this is pissing off the 3d printing community greatly. everyone loved benchy and have used it for years. so someone on reddit decided to make a new model that is designed as a 3d printing stress test. one that works a lot like benchy, and people are freely able to edit it as they please. you know what they called it?

Saying this these days really is like yelling at a brick wall but here goes again:

You cannot gleefully take part in the dehumanisation of an entire group of people based on their nationality, their ethnicity, what have you, rejoice in the suffering of that group, and be on the side of human rights, ethics and morals.

You just cannot. But so many of you try to square that circle. You want so badly to be seen as righteous, that when people call you out for your violent, rancid rhetoric, you throw a paddy and hurl insults through inboxes (always on anon, though, because you’re spineless fucking cowards).

went to wikipedia to fact check somethings about a guy from ww2 era history and it had been edited beyond belief to erase this person's connections with nazi germany. the second google result is the holocaust encyclopedia page all about his horrible crimes in the nazi regime. but on wikipeida, his description is vague and mild and barely mentions it. it's so worrying. I hate it. what happens when gen z only reads wikipedia pages and denounces any sources that are "too zionist" like a holocaust museum's encyclopedia? thank g-d for jewish historians, what would we do without them, but i'm so so scared that our history is going to be rewritten because no one will listen to us on our own history.
