    KKK calls for ethnic cleansing, free Palestine calls for human rights.

    … How?

    I can’t understand how someone could say anything like this.

    How are all these fucking idiots still confused that disliking the Israeli government has fuck all to do with disliking Jews? Do they know this, and just choose to make it about something more?

      It’s really mind boggling that people won’t separate citizens v. gov’t.

      I hate Trump & the 80 million MAGA nuts in the USA. That leaves about 260,000,000 folks that I might like. Except that lousy prick in the white Ford 150 that squeezed into line of traffic from an illegal lane this morning 😉

        Zionists are actually antisemitic. Calling people who criticize Israel for its genocide and apartheid antisemitic implies that it’s a jewish thing to commit genocide and apartheid, which is incredibly hateful.

        Also this isn’t just about the israeli goverment. The protests you see are about the hostages, not about the inhumanity. Protests for solidarity with palestine are banned. There are recent polls that showed ~75% of israelis think “there are no innocent palestinians”. The beaches and restaurants are buzzing over there. It’s really not that hard to see from just about any angle, how most israelis don’t give a shit at all.

      It’s because people are told by the Israeli government and others with a stake in it that they’re the same and it’s done under threat, be it physical like jail, emotional abuse, or just the threat of cancelation. The last one is less of a thing lately but for a lot of years it was real. The non-political American maga dipshits doing it is because they’re dipshits though.

      There are some pretty brave students in Israel speaking up loudly in spite of the threats, love them for that.

      Just don’t ask him to compare the cound of extrajudicial murders on both sides… He might have to face an uncomfortable truth (assuming he doesn’t weasel out of them being extrajudicial murders by describing them in ways that amount to war crimes)

        The Free Palestine Movement Seinfield’s referring to is the one with mostly Western students protesting on college campuses, not the Free Palestine Movement located in Lebanon that was involved with armed conflict with Syria too. We have proof of this:

        Here’s a quote from this article:

        “By saying ‘Free Palestine,’ you’re not admitting what you really think. So it’s actually — compared to the Ku Klux Klan, I’m actually thinking the Klan is actually a little better here, because they can come right out and say, ‘We don’t like Blacks, we don’t like Jews.’ Okay, that’s honest,'" the Chronicle reported Seinfeld said.

        source

        The KKK has killed literally thousands of people (mostly black, but some Jews, and whites) source

        But apparently according to Jerry here, the KKK gets a pass because “that’s honest”.

        Fuck off, Jerry.

          Following Seinfeld’s logic, maybe Michael Richards’ popping off with the n-word is a “little better here” than Jerry’s dishonest insinuation that the Free Palestine demonstrators are all antisemitic.

    How would this make sense to anyone? Free Palestine doesn’t hurt anyone, what’s even the logic here? The KKK definitely hurt people.

      He thinks that the Free Palestine movement is antisemitic, and that they’re lying when they claim that they aren’t, whereas the KKK are openly antisemitic, and I guess he values the “honesty”?

      (He seems to think Israel = the Jewish People.)

          He also loves to rant about political correctness being the reason why people don’t find him funny anymore. Young people are just really offended. Definitely not related to him including being only able to make offending jokes. But Jews am I rite? (/s obvs).

          Reading his Wikipedia article alone will already be helpful enough to overcome your affection.

          Seinfeld and his family previously drew criticism, travelling to the occupied West Bank in 2018 to participate in an anti-terrorism simulation camp.

          In 2025, responding to a social media influencer and ambush activist who said “Free Palestine”, he shook his head and replied “I don’t care about Palestine.”

        Its super creepy, but not illegal (for some reason).

        He’s a piece of shit for a lot of other reasons than trying to out diCaprio someone.

    Every single Zionist excuse falls apart as soon as you apply it to Zionists.

    An example: Zionists are a little worse than the KKK because at least the KKK are honest about their Islamophobia.

    This trick really does work on all their talking points.
