There are Hamas fighters, future Hamas fighters, potential Hamas fighters and Hamas sympathizers. All belong to Hamas. There might be other categories as well.
Saw someone else post this on lemmy:
WCK surely stands for World Central KHAMAS.
Every
whole in the ground is a Hamas Tunnel, every Palestinian is Hamas, every person critical of Israel is pro-Hamas.You can see it everywhere, not just Israeli Propaganda (and even that from its unwavering supporters like Germany and the Biden Administration) but even here posts accusing somebody critical of Israel of being pro-Hamas are common.
Ooh, be careful with those views. Someone who doesn’t understand what antisemitism is might call you an antisemite.
I’ve definitely seen exchanges like that here. “Maybe genocide is bad.” And then some nutjob going off asking if they really think Hamas would welcome them.
In Germany they are also loosing Respect.
Out of curiosity, did this post got shadow-banned?
If I go to: https://lemmy.world/c/politicalmemes?dataType=Post&sort=TopDay I can’t see it
I don’t think so, I think the post is more than a day old by now
Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing
My bad, I think this was the issue!!
i have information about a khamas base below the white house, as well as downing street.
Literally disband the state of israel but damn they had to use the nose huh?
It’s like the Kelly video where he’s all “you gotta give me the teeth!”
Really? We’ve basically descended to antisemitism now?
I 100% think the use of force in Gaza is genocide and a war crime, but this is a cartoon I’d expect from the Right. We’re better than that.
Looking forward to the downvotes for my ground shattering opinion that racial generalizations never have a place in political commentary.
EDIT: I’ve never been happier in my life to be downvoted. Keep them coming. I love how I even said in my initial comment that I do not support Israel and think they’re committing genocide (which is the general Lemmy opinion), but I’m still getting toasted. I would say the same thing about a WWII cartoon that made racial generalizations about Asians, or about the imperialist cartoons of the late 1800s that made generalizations about any number of a group of other people.
Criticizing Israel’s government is not antisemitism.
Is this cartoon doing that.
Yes.
Israel are not the Jewish people. You’ve been propagandized to. I’m sorry and fuck off.
Yeah, the cartoon really conveys that with its stereotypical depiction of a Jewish person.
There are better ways to represent a country.
Hey boss, they do everything in their power to make you think they represent all Jewish people. This is the most inoffensive way to illustrate them I’ve seen in a long ass time.
I think you’re just struggling with the fact they’re the bad guys.
The cartoon doesn’t have to. It’s common sense that a nation isn’t the same thing as a religion.
Okay Hasbara.
You’ve learned a valuable lesson today. A large fraction of the Lemmy userbase is anti semites who got banned from Reddit for advocating for violence against Israel.
“Everyone that downvotes me is an anti-semite! REEEEEEEEEEE”
Violence against genocidal ethnostates is justified, why would anyone be banned for saying that?
Subtle work there with the nose.
Both the press and the soldier have quite a large nose so that doesn’t seem to imply much.
I didn’t say which nose.
As an artist myself, nothing is ever an accident. There wasn’t any need for it to tell the story. Using bigotry to describe genocide is a misstep.

I looked at his Instagram before I left my comment (that agreed with you) and there’s a drawing of a middle eastern guy with a nose way closer to the stereotype on there, too.

I’m not just hesitant to claim it’s bigotry - I’m outright refusing to without further evidence for all the reasons you outlined. There’s nothing bigoted about the way the soldier is drawn because that’s not even accurate to the stereotype at all

Make some shit up? It’s pink and unusually elongated with respect to the other characters. I’m not going to scour through the artist’s works to prove that it might be an accidental embellishment. If you make a comic that is not part of a series, it should be self contained.
All the other details you pointed out are just strawman bullshit.
What’s happening to Palestinians is genocide. It’s fucked beyond belief. This went from a poignant comic to something I don’t want to be associated with.

Four fingers, one floating eye, sclara? All straw-men that you ‘defeated’ to prove me wrong. I don’t comment on bigotry lightly. I know antisemitism is thrown around as much as comparisons to hitler in hyperbole these days.
If someone has to look at your body of work to understand if you’re racist or not, you fucked up.
Have you heard of a saying? “Those looking for something will find it even where none exists.”
I replied to the first commenter with this but the soldier’s nose is not the antisemitic stereotype. It “should” (if you’re trying to be racist) be hooked and pointing downward
You immediately jumping to it being bigotry is the very thing Israel is doing right now claiming all criticism is bigotry. They both have stupid looking noses since its a sketched cartoon. Stop jumping to conclusions.
Yeah but the artist is called Nasser. Sounds pretty antisemitic to me. I met a guy called Nasser once, guess what his surname was? That’s right, Hussein. What do you think he thought about Jews? I’ve no idea, he seemed like a decent guy though, so probably nothing awful. I’m assuming this Nasser Junior must be his son? He had a big nose too, come to think of it.
Indeed, very deliberate – because it makes a fucking penis shape, you silly goose. Look at the positioning of the eyes.
Maybe. If I were to draw a comic about Japanese I’d be very careful about how I draw eyes and teeth because of how they were stereotyped in the past. If I drew one with black people I’d be sure it looked nothing like Pepe the frog. Lots of characters have the eyes outside the head style. Weiner face isn’t what I see here.
Come on, that’s just a cartoon nose. It’s not even close to the racist stereotype of Jewish noses.
The Jewish nose, or the Jew’s nose, is an antisemitic ethnic stereotype referring to a hooked nose with a convex nasal bridge and a downward turn of the tip of the nose
I didn’t think today I’d be looking at people arguing a Jew depicted with twice the size nose as the other character in the panel while speaking in broken English was going to be argued as not stereotypical because it isn’t hooked enough.
Certainly didn’t think I’d see it as the upvoted opinion.
Not at all like classic stereotypes or anything:
Did you happen to notice the detached eye floating in mid air?
A famous Jewish trait
blood eyeball
Yet another hurtful Jewish stereotype! /s
