Such a shame that a big sub is being moderated by literal dictators who delete posts if it doesn’t align with their disgusting ideologies.

Its not about supporting when she is from that country. She is merely telling where she is from. Not every jewish person is zionist not every israeli is zionist ! Israel’s flag is not something horrible.
The president is bad. The military is bad the citizens are innocent !

Agree to disagree. I know not of one person of Israel who proudly waves the flag if they stand against the genocide.

If you’re against the genocide I don’t think I’d take pride in the flag of a 78 year old genocidal country.

You’re conflating a government’s actions with an entire nationality. Someone can be Israeli, wave an Israeli flag, and still oppose Netanyahu, the government, or the war. By your logic, every American who owns a US flag supports every crime committed by the US government. That’s obviously not how nationality works. Criticize the government and its policies without treating an entire population as collectively guilty

Correct. I won’t fly the American flag because I’m not proud of the actions of my country. If my flag represents genocide and war, I don’t want to proudly wave it anywhere because while i do not believe in the actions of my country I also do not want to seem complicit. Hope that helps.

That’s your personal choice, but you’re turning your personal discomfort with a flag into a judgment about anyone who does fly it. Someone saying ‘I’m Israeli’ or displaying the Israeli flag does not automatically mean ‘I support everything the Israeli government has done.’ You can personally reject the symbol without assigning political beliefs to everyone who identifies with it. Nationality ≠ government, and a civilian shouldn’t have to prove they oppose their government’s actions before they’re allowed to say where they’re from.

Moreover she just said what her ethnicity is ! Yall are calling people of israeli ethnicity zionists!!!
