No, my tune wouldn’t change.
The Germans had a famous saying post-ww2. “We didn’t now about it”. Can’t say the same about Israelis.
And what was happening to the indigenous people in Canada? What policies? I’m curious to know what claims you’re making because so far you’ve been very general.
I hope you’ll forgive my tone because trying to compare history in a certain framing and anachronistically to today is what Israelis use to justify their continued colonization and genocide.
some of the Arab parties are also pro apartheid
Which ones? Name them
Also nothing I said was whataboutism, darvo or whatever
Yes, you did. By bringing up Canada’s colonial history, that is a “tu quoque”, which is classic deflection.
And let’s assume that the apples and oranges that you’re comparing anachronistically is even relevant - hypocrisy doesn’t make the claim any less true.
By Israeli civilians own polls 64% believe there are no innocents in Gaza (including children). By Israelis own actions (blocking aid trucks) they have helped facilitate the genocide. By Israelis own public rhetoric by politicians and the citizens, they want a genocide. The NAZA documentary shows clearly how there is glee in the murdering of innocent people and that it’s murder en masse.
That is in contrast to Nazi Germany where the civilians didn’t know the Holocaust was happening and it was done in secret.
Israelis know about it, the world has laws against it, the video evidence is overwhelming and is everywhere, and they still provide full throated support for it. And that’s why I say that Israelis are worse than Germans during Nazi Germany.
Putting aside the whataboutism, the historical anachronism, and the DARVO.
Canadian citizens are reckoning with it’s colonial past during the colonial period in the 17th century, it’s people now (who before were British subjects) understand the genocide, learn about it in school, and don’t support it.
While Israeli civilians (not just the IDF) blockade food trucks, have rallies for torturers and torture camps, ~80% say the IDF isn’t doing enough in Gaza, believe that killing children is ok because “they’re future terrorists”, have annual flag march calling “death to Arabs”, and fully agree on genocide – and this is after a whole system of laws have been created and humanity, as a whole, has a better understanding of it (except Israelis apparently).
There have been countless reports of Palestinians with Israeli citizenship being asked arbitrary questions, being held up for hours from voting, or the voting locations randomly shutting down for no reason.
It isn’t about right vs left in Israel. This is about apartheid and racism because those “pesky Arabs” shouldn’t even be allowed to vote. They even tried to make Arab/Palestinian parties illegal and ineligible to run for elections. That’s a good chunk of the rhetoric in israel.
Bolso Jr was under investigation for sometime now over massive corruption scandals and embezzlement, even before his father’s presidency - which Bolso Sr then leaned on the courts to lay off at the time.
When Bolso Sr lost the presidency, the courts were back to investigating the corruption.
Bolso Jr then ran for presidency hoping for immunity and a self pardon (and pardon for Sr.). That’s why his brother said that if he loses, he has to run away. Not that there would be “retribution” (which Brazil Magats are calling it) but because it’s been a years long investigation and Jr has run out of rocks to hide under.
My current employer has a “we’ll teach AI to all the support functions to better automate backend processes” and then they made it part of the KPIs of the senior leadership of those functions, which is miles better than “use AI or else”.
I understand why using AI has benefits in certain tasks, but I don’t see why there has to be the threat of people losing their job - unless it maybe was a KPI for some time for process enhancement and now things are coming to a head? I dunno.
So nows a good time to buy Brazilian stocks for cheap?
Israelis (as a populace) are 100x worse than the Nazis. Not just their ruling parties, but their people. Irredeemable in every way.
Collective punishment of a people. And it’s punishment for their illegal invasion and occupation.
Most Israeli civilians are active participants and even their news outlets openly report about it. Their polling shows full support for it.

It’s not that israelis are remotely aware, it’s that are fully aware and they want it to happen.

So while you can say that the Germans knew - which, again, is massively debated to what extent the average German knew. Like you said, they knew about people being rounded up and assumed it was for immigration/relocation not mass murder in gas Chambers and it was wilful ignorance at best - there is absolutely no debate that Israelis fully know, encourage it, support it, their politicians and soldiers share videos on social media of torture camps, they have processions calling for death, etc.
Worth seeing the NAZA documentary (not the fake one that Israel put out to mislead people).
