This wasn't targeting Americans or Israelis.
Regardless, wanting hundreds of millions of people to live in fear due to their nationality is fucked up. This kind of attitude challenges my faith in humanity.
Fear brings hate. Hate brings violence. Violence brings death. Violence and death bring fear.
The way to break the cycle is creating safety by removing violent actors, fostering compassion and combating hate.
This really fucking screams either "American trying to do his first communism" or "guy trying to make the entire left look bad".
Did you fucking forget to get class conscious along the way? Did you see ambiguity in "workers of the world unite"? Did you think that "international solidarity" was just meaningless platitude?
One can (and I am and will) disagree with the policies of the governments of the US and Israel. One can (and I do and will) oppose the militarism, the enormous exploitation of their working class and the xenophobia that are driven by their economic elites. But one should not undermine the international struggle because one disagrees with the national politics of the nations were your comrades happen to live. One should not fall hook, line and sinker for the tricks and ploys they have been using for eternities to keep the working class fighting each other, instead of their exploiters.
I'm sure you'd make a great little soldier.
