    constantly give ‘all lives matter’ vibes

    Not just vibes, it is “all lives matter” but rebranded for Zionism. I still remember last year (and before) where you had to preface every statement of solidarity with the Palestinian people with “oh I dont hate jewish people” or “there are issues on both sides.”, not to mention the constant hyperfixation on antisemitism on the left, so necessary to be called out, but only when the discussion nears the topic of Palestinians. Or the demand to basically run to the next jewish person to get “I can critique Israel” pass.

    The commenters are just stuck in the soft zionism that the majority of the western left found themselves in.
