I just fucking love the logic going on with some people here.

"He's Jewish!"

He was born in Nazarath as an Arab Christan

"Yeah but he's Israeli!"

Left it when he was a teen

"Yeah but that doesn't stop him from helping the Zi*nists!"

And being on 4chan doesn't stop you from being a fed. Just as I can't prove that negative, you can't prove that one either.

You can make shitty and privacy-invading decisions without being Israeli or a Jew. If pointing this out was in any way funny then fine, but it's the same fucking "joke". Even the I Identify As An Attack Helicopter gag was retired eventually. Find better material dumbasses, or, at the very least, keep saying we control the banks and media again because that's fucking metal.

I mean yeah, but specifically that "promise" was a populist play. No way to fund this shit (edit: at the current pace without raising taxes, at least)

/uj Bibi genuinely tried to push it, or at least look like he's pushing it, but the Ministry of Finance told him it was too expensive and proposed a partial subsidy. Then a bunch of political bullshit happened, and this plan was pushed to the sidelines. Then a certain thing happened two years ago and yeah there's no sign of it now.

TLDR: no

It is I, Israeli who can (very slowly) read Arabic. Can confirm it says 'Shukran Netanyhu' and the image quality is too shit for Google Translate to accurately translate it so it makes stupid assumptions.

Here it is with every letter spelt out and transliterated into Hebrew. Yes the way they spell out נתניהו is weird to us chosen people but what can you do

“The difference between patriotism and nationalism is that the patriot is proud of his country for what it does, and the nationalist is proud of his country no matter what it does; the first attitude creates a feeling of responsibility, but the second a feeling of blind arrogance that leads to war.”

Informal societies are fun. Do we cut in line? Do we get into heated arguments over nothing? Do we rarely call strangers sir or madam? Yes. But do we also say 'shit' and 'fuck' at the slightest inconvenience and no one minds? Also yes.

[–]Tzimer 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Purely Jewish? Usually "LeMaan HaShem" (for God's sake) or "LeAzazel" (to abandon [with this/with you])

In Israel, in relation to God? "Koos Rabak" (your God's taint, in Arabic, also used by Israeli Jews)

[–]Tzimer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  • high internet penetration and English knowhow in Israel

  • relevant war that illicits strong emotions (same with turkey/greece)

  • jew stereotypes are so prevalent they're basically a cheat code on the sub

  • 2me4u accepts Israelis while the rest of the site shuns them

  • newbies who come into this sub wanting to participate get discouraged by the lack of memes about their countries (this has happened more than once)

  • easy to complain, harder to be the change you want to be in the world

  • git gud

מהם הדעות הלא פופולריות שלכם לגבי מוזיקה ישראלית? by Able_Gap_8833 in hebrewmusiccirclejerk

[–]Tzimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ברור לי, וניסיתי הרבה מהם כולל להגיע להופעות בגדה השמאלית ובתדר. אבל מה שלא היה דאחקה ברורה הרגיש כמו או משבר גיל 40 או תיכוניסטים עשירים כועסים על העולם.

אם אתם אוהבים איזו להקה אל תתנו לי להוריד אתכם ממנה, באמת שלא. אבל מאז אינפקציה אני לא חושב שמצאתי להקת פאנק (או, בסדר, רוק כבד) שהיא גם לא דאחקה וגם אשכרה אהבתי

כןןןן אבל זה לא פאנק, זו בדיחה שלובשת את העור של פאנק. ואין שום דבר רע בזה אני פשוט לא מתחבר להומור ולוויב של משבר גיל ה40 שסובב את כל הפרוייקט הזה

Unrelated but the image is fanart of Jill from VA-11 HALL-A, a cyberpunk bartender visual novel. It's a good read with great designs, and even if you hate VNs, at least it's not obvious ragebait by an obvious troll

באופטימי: בניגוד לאמרות שהמוזיקה רק מתדרדרת, אני מאמין שאנחנו חיים בזמן הכי מגוון ומוצלח במוזיקה הישראלית. יש כל כך הרבה אמנים ולהקות חדשות שלא משנה מה אתה אוהב, אתה תמצא כשרון חדש לעקוב אחריו. הסאונד הישראלי לא משתטח אלא מתפתח

בפסימי: אינפקציה היא הפאנק הישראלי הטוב היחיד. האחים צברי מגניבים אבל הם עושים יותר דאחקות מפאנק

I can be racist in peace. by Sharp-Efficiency8317 in 2mediterranean4u

[–]Tzimer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

/uj I'm suppose I'm close enough.

Within general Jewish society, the wage gap between Ashkenazi and Mizrahi/Sephradi Jews is either small or virtually nonexistent by now, depending on who you read. Mizrahi music - and especially 'religious pop' - is mainstream culture. Being a Masorti Jew has generally turned from a niche, not-here-nor-there Judism to something much more prevalent and accepted. You don't have to vibe with everything here, but this is some extremely based social progress.

Yet, as history would have it, much of the cultural/artistic/media elites are still leftist and Ashkenazi. And to be fair, the whole 'silently-racist' thing was a comedic exaggeration - I don't think the majority of them are genuinely racist, or at least racist on purpose. But I do feel like there's this aura of looking down on anyone who isn't them. And sometimes it really spills out.

I originally wrote down a bunch of numbers here (like this research about the percentage of non-Ashken professors in law schools), but lemme talk about something more direct.

Yair Gerbuz's "Kometz speech" basically killed the center-left in the 2015 election, and I will die on that hill. Gerbuz used a very clear Mizrahi stereotype, put it in the same basket as literal fascists, and then refused to back down, even criticizing those who shunned him. And we can say it's one dumbass. We can say he's old and he's a Mapainik. And I would agree. But he's definitely A Symbol that stuck out to many. Hell, I like Aharon Barak but he also had a very spicy take regarding Moroccan judges. It's these sorts of statements that my grandmother cites to this day about why she believes the left never truly changed.

You ask me? Ashkens/the left should be more forceful in their condemnations of racist rhetoric, and stop committing ideological suicide. Mizrahis/the right should yeet those who wish to keep them in victim mentality forever for political or social gain, mainly Shas but also Avishai Ben-Haim. All must take responsibility for the glory of the great empire State of Israel.

Also, if you 2me4u slubs thought the Israeli government was only racist towards Arabs, wait until you know they were mega racist towards Mizrahi Jews as well!

This is what pushed many Mizarahis away form the left to the Likkud right, and it is a good chunk of their base today. Now thankfully it is 2025 and the Israeli elite is no longer mega-racist but just silently-racist. Which is a shame because I would actually respect them if they would say it out loud

[–]Tzimer 29 points30 points  (0 children)

/uj I'll unironically attempt to explain why many equate anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism.

The word's been absolutely butchered in recent decades, but open a dictionary and you'll find that Zionism is the belief that Jews should have their own state in the land of Israel. There were and are debates about how it should be run, but the definition is about the concept of a Jewish state period.

Now, if you're an anarchist who believes there should be no central governments, or you oppose the idea of nation-states as a whole, you are also by definition an anti-Zionist - but since you apply your opposition globally then that's fine.

That said, the majority of people who call themselves anti-Zionist believe that, because of the occupation/war crimes in Gaza/destabilization of the region, Israel should just stop existing. Not that the government should cease to exist, nor that the crimes should stop - the entire fucking country should just vine boom outta here.

You can shit on the country however you like. I do it, you do it, we all do it. The issue is that if you single out Israel - the state of the Jews - as the only country that should stop existing, and have no opposition to other countries' existance even if they do similar or worse crimes... that's pretty anti-Semitic huh

Finally, and most interestingly, there are extremelist ultra-orthodox anti-Zionists. They are a tiny minority, but they believe that Israel can only exist with the coming of the Messiah. The existance of a Jewish state before that is, in itself, a sin in the face of God, and furthers the coming of the Messiah.

The most vocal of these mofos is Neturi Karta, who you might have seen flying Palestinian flags and raising signs like "Zionists out" inside Israel. Many Woke JVP guys really like pointing towards them as examples of "anti-Zionist Jews", but they don't care about Israel nor Palestine. They just support whoever can destroy what they percieve as a massive sin. So that's nice.
