For those confused, the concern of most of us is not that free palestine is an antisemitic statement, it is unequivocally not. The antisemitic part is thinking that because someone is jewish (ordering a kosher meal) that they need to be harassed and told "free palestine" let alone made to question the safety of their food.

The details are lacking, if this is on everyones meals, then that's ok in my books, if it only targets Jewish people then there is a problems

https://liveandletsfly.com/free-palestine-iberia-kosher-meal/ It was on other kosher meals, it does not technically say it wasn't also on other non-kosher meals. I think it's a reasonable assumption though.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, if that's the case then it's a big issue with me.

Hold on a second. That articles from August 6th. The post is from August 20th. Something is clearly not right here.

[–] tomenzgg@midwest.social 10 points 3 days ago

People post links to things weeks after the fact on Twitter all the time; that's pretty benign.

[–] OpenPassageways@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What if this was directed at someone wearing an Israeli flag. Does that mean it was not targeting a Jewish person and instead voicing political opposition to a political entity?

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

If the person was wearing the flag, and it was a one off, then I'd say, personally that it would be fine, but it seems this was just written on the kosher meals

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago

muslims would likely prefer kosher meals as well, unless there's a specifically halal option.

If you are eating any type of meal and you receive a note saying free Palestine and you are offended? 🖕

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The offense is not at the message, it's that they were targeted to have it delivered.

This is a genocide being committed right now and you want me to debate you about a message a group of people who eat traditionally Jewish food and may be Israeli, and giving these folks a message saying free Palestine is somehow offensive because they were targeted as potential Israeli citizens who can vote the terrorist Netanyahu out of office?

What are you talking about?

[–] napkin2020@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Idk sounds pretty racist to give a guy ordering kungpao chicken a "Free Uyghurs" note.

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I guess I disagree.

I wouldn’t give people notes like this I don’t think. But I don’t think it is racist. Supporting Israel is more racist than this.

[–] napkin2020@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Supporting Israel is more racist than this.

Okay.

Guess I should start vocally denouncing the CCP and their Uyghur genocide before I get myself a Malatang.

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social -2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Or just stop trying to find excuses to support the terrorist genocidal Israelis. It’s not hard.

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

This person isn't supporting genocide, you're just acting like an asshole and then pretending that anyone who doesn't like it is is pro-Israel.

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 0 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Either way Israeli government is fucked up I can still be an asshole, and Netanyahu and the Israeli government can be terrorists… this is not an either or

And anyone who supports them is worse than an asshole

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

boy you really are just terrible at reading huh

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

and you want me to debate you about a message a group of people who eat traditionally Jewish food and may be Israeli

buddy you're doing that anyway. Conflating Israelis with Jews is wrong, yes. Targeting Jews to try and send a message to Israeli is wrong, yes. I know you feel like anything you like is justified since you believe in The Right Thing, but doing bad things for a good reason is still bad.

and giving these folks a message saying free Palestine is somehow because they were targeted as potential Israeli citizens who can vote the terrorist Netanyahu out of office?

oh wow you're incoherent with indignation, what a surprise. Why are you wasting time? There's a genocide RIGHT NOW

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I guess I don’t care if they are offended?

Or if you are offended?

Because there is a genocide happening, being committed by the Israeli government.

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

You're so brave
