People feel extremely entitled to the Holocaust

[anartificialsatellite]

I have a lot of issues with the way "Holocaust envy" as a term is used but it is absolutely fucking bizarre the way non-Jewish and non-Roma people want to center themselves in the Holocaust and act like anyone pointing out that Nazi ideology was centered on antisemitism at its core are like, gatekeeping??

[xclowniex2]

I wake up. I check the news. I read an article about how antisemitism has increased yet again in a country. I clock into work. I go to lunch and wonder if my subway guy who is always excited to see me and writes my name with a little design every day would still treat me the same if he knew i was jewish. Clock out. I walk home through alley ways to avoid walking past people who have explicity called for the death of jews. I spend some times on my hobbies, maybe see a friend. Eat dinner. Check social media to see people local to me spread antisemitism, and maybe i even ruminate on the antisemitism i experienced irl that week. I go to sleep. I wake up, check the news and see an article about how another country also has had an increase in antisemitism. I clock into work....

A Jewish History Heist at the British Museum

The British Museum just postponed a Jewish Culture Month lecture, but it’s been erasing Jewish history long before that.

by Roy K. Altman

I have witnessed the way the British Museum has been quietly participating in the erasure of Jewish history for some time now. A few years ago, I visited the British Museum with my wife to see the Lachish bas-reliefs and the Kurkh Monoliths—ancient stone carvings from the Assyrian empire, centered in what’s now northern Iraq—which provide unambiguous evidence of ancient Jewish rule in the Land of Israel. The Lachish bas-reliefs depict the siege of Lachish—an ancient Israelite town, a few miles from Jerusalem, destroyed by the Assyrian king Sennacherib in 701 BCE. The mesmerizing scenes, carved in gypsum, progress from the initial invasion of the Kingdom of Israel on the far left to the siege and battle reliefs in the center, culminating in the destruction of Lachish and the enslavement of its Jewish inhabitants on the extreme right.

Archeologists have now corroborated this Assyrian depiction of the destruction of Lachish—which is described in the Bible, twice—by excavating in and underneath Lachish itself. Geologists have established that a fire consumed (and then destroyed) the settlement toward the end of the eighth century BCE—which is consistent with the Assyrian destruction of the town in 701 BCE. In addition to uncovering the telltale signs of an ancient battle—arrows and spears, for instance—at that specific historical layer in the underground sediment, archeologists have shown that the civilization the Assyrians vanquished was indisputably Jewish. In fact, Lachish is one of the only places (outside Jerusalem) where archeologists have unearthed the now-famous LMLK seals, bearing the Hebrew letters Lamed Mem Lamed Kaf, meaning “belonging to the King.” The king these seals refer to is Hezekiah, the ancient Israelite monarch who ruled toward the end of the eighth century BCE in Jerusalem, when Sennacherib’s Assyrian army came knocking.The Black Obelisk of Shalmaneser III, depicting military campaigns and receiving tribute, 858–824 BCE.

You would be hard-pressed to find any connection to Jewish history in the museum’s labels—and the Lachish bas-reliefs are not the only example. The Kurkh Monoliths—giant limestone stelae—provide even older evidence of Jewish indigeneity in the Land of Israel. They record the Assyrian king Shalmaneser III’s account of defeating Ahab, the king of Israel, at a battle fought near the ancient city of Karkar in 853 BCE. And Shalmaneser’s Black Obelisk depicts a long procession of enslaved Israelites, their king bowing before his Assyrian conquerors—what most scholars consider the oldest image of a Jew anywhere in the world, a Jewish prince who lived not in Poland or Belarus or Brooklyn, but in Israel. But most of the descriptions I’ve provided here cannot be found on any of the museum’s inscriptions. And these priceless items of ancient Jewish history don’t appear in a wing dedicated to Israel or Judaism at all. Instead, they’re all on display in the Assyrian section of the museum—far removed from any mention of Israel or its pesky Jewish inhabitants.

Which brings us to the heart of the matter. In all its many rooms and floors, covering thousands of years of human history—and featuring plenty of now-extinct peoples like the Etruscans (Room 71), the Lycians (Room 20), and the Anatolians (Room 54)—the British Museum doesn’t actually have a dedicated wing to the people who brought us monotheism, Jesus, and the Bible. There are, it’s true, individual items of ancient Jewish origin. They just aren’t displayed with descriptions that make clear the ancient and continuous connection between the Jewish people and the Land of Israel. Here’s a photograph I took of an absurd sign at the entrance to a room full of ancient Israelite artifacts:Phoenician sign at the British Museum. (Courtesy of author)

That opening line should shock anyone who knows even a little bit of ancient Levantine history: “By the beginning of the first millennium BC,” the museum’s curators wrote, “the Israelites occupied most of Palestine.” But that’s a historical anachronism. There was no such thing as Palestine at the beginning of the first millennium BC. The Land of Israel wouldn’t be renamed “Palestine” until a thousand years later, after Rome crushed the Bar Kokhba Revolt in 135 CE, after which the Emperor Hadrian renamed Judea (Hebrew for land of the Jews) Palaestina for the Philistines—a Greek people who had invaded the area of modern-day Gaza in ancient times, who had gone extinct long before the Romans arrived, and who had absolutely nothing to do with Muslim Arabs, who wouldn’t exist for another 500 years. Palestine was thus a name Hadrian concocted to punish the Jews for their treachery and encourage the world to forget the Jews’ ancient connection to their homeland.

Here's the picture from the article

The British Museum is knowingly erasing Jewish indigeneity and Jewish Peoplehood as a whole, portraying Jews as both non-existent and occupiers at the same time. This is nazi level propaganda.

[destiel-news-channel]

because someone decided to drop the word 'ethostate' in the comments of a post about israel again, i thought we could play around with some numbers.

According to a 2023 statistic Jews make up about 73 % of Israel's population. Let's compare that with some other countries. (While ethnostate actually refers to racial or ethnic groups and Judaism isn't 'just a religion', I will also give examples for the demographics of religions in countries)

Let's start with the EU: According to statistics from 2019 about 64% of the EU's population were Christian, a decline from 72% in 2012. So what? In 2012 the EU was actually a Christian ethnostate? Or at least consisted of ethnostates? I mean if we think about it, we have to follow the Christian calendar, Christian holidays are mandated by the state while other religious groups have to fight every year to be able to observe their most sacred days. Hell, where I live (in Germany) one of the currently ruling parties is called the Christian Democratic Union and our Grundgesetz (basic law) is built upon Christian roots. They even invoke God in the preamble!

Here some further statistics about Religion in Europe.

As you can see even just looking at individual Christian denominations, there are about 6 countries for which the religious majority makes up more than 3/4th of the population. IN THESE COUNTRIES ONE DENOMINATION OF CHRISTIANITY HAS A HIGHER POPULATION PERCENTAGE THAN JEWS IN ISRAEL. So I hope this shows that 'Israel is an ethnostate cause there is just one religion determining everything' is utter bullshit not just because Judaism is not just a religion but also because I can name 6 countries in Europe alone for which there is a higher percentage of people of a certain religion.

So now to actually look at specific countries. Ireland especially seems to have an antisemitism problem, so how about we focus on them.

As of 2022 the amount of Catholics in Ireland has decreased so that they actually make up 69.1% of the population as opposed to the over 75% from 2019. But the definition of ethnostates actually specifically looks at ethnic or racial groups. Let's see. As of 2022 the largest ethnic group in were White Irish, making up a whole 76.5% of the Irish population. Including other white people in this, this number increases to 87.4% of the population. That is 14% more than the 73% that Jews make up of the Israeli population. The next largest group in Ireland are Asians with 3.7% (or depending on how you'd like to spin it, the 6.16% who did not state their ethnicity. This still doesn't make Ireland an ethnostate though.

And some more examples:

China: 91.11% Han Chinese (2020)

Russia: 71.73% ethnic Russians (2021)

Saudi Arabia: 90% Arabs, 10% Afro-Arabs (2021)

USA: 57.84% White (2020)

Canada: 69.8% White (2022)

Germany: 71.3% Germans (2022)

Democratic Republic of Congo: no dominant ethnic group

South Africa: 81.4% Black

Just so it is completely clear: It is not my intention to call any of the countries listed here an ethnostate, rather I want to detail the absurdity of calling Israel an ethnostate, when you can look at demographics and see many other countries with similar or higher percentages of ethnic (or racial or religious) majorities.

[shofarsogood]

Poland's ethnic makeup today: 99% white, with 98% being ethnic Poles

Poland in 1931, before the Holocaust: Polish, 69% of the population, Ukrainian, 15%, Jews 8.5%, Belarusian, 4.70%, German, 2.2%, Russian 0.25%, Lithuanian, 0.25%, Czech 0.09%

Please explain to me why Poland isn't blamed for their massive ethnic cleansing and the fact that their country is nearly homogenous.

That's an ethnostate to me!
