does this post talk about jews in a really gross way or am i just overreacting please advise
you are absolutely not overreacting that post is antisemitic and freaks me out
it is possible to be anti-israel without being anti-semitic about it! PLEASE do not trash the jewish language and culture (and say that establishing Israel was sort of part of the holocaust's purpose oh my god) when you're trying to say that what's happened to Palestine is horrible jesus christ. you dont have to attack judaism and israeli citizens when you should be attacking the government and how it was established in the first place.

it’s sickening how artificial “israel” is like their language is a modern creation from a dead liturgical language with mostly european phonology, “israeli food” is stolen palestinian and levantine food given hebrew names, the surnames of its european settlers are hebrew translations of their original german or slavic surnames, the fact that said european settlers still remember living in eastern europe or what have you while their spawn claim “indigeneity” to the levant, it’s just an awfully modern european colonial state that’s masquerading and claiming the legacy to the jewish kingdoms from 5000 years ago. my grandparents were in their 20s when “israel” declared itself a state. my grandparents and parents rightfully still call it “Phalesteen”. israel was a safe version of the “final solution” that europe envisioned of getting rid of all of the jewish people in europe (specifically england) but instead of genocide, they opted for expulsion. israel was created in our families lifetimes, it can be destroyed in our lifetimes.
