keffiyehs aren't even political or specifically Palestinian. They're not even specific to Arab people, like I know Iranians and Afghans who wear them. One Iranian girl I know wore a keffiyeh as part of her school uniform.
"Being Palestinian in my general vicinity is a hate crime"
They're just incredibly fashionable tbh
They're (or they were) pretty popular in Argentina, specially between "rolingas", fans of the rolling stones and other Argentinean rock bands.
They were briefly popular in the mid 00s here in the US among some Emo bands
the black and white one is Palestinian and Arafat literally wore it all the time
You see real and pretend “operators” wearing them too all the time because it’s a very practical garment.
liberals everyonewtf is the beeper song?
We're dealing with levels of racism that we can't even comprehend
i wonder if they’re talking about “El Beeper” which is weird because yes it does beep but it’s a mexican song.
wtf
"hahaha, we're terrorists and we support flagrant violations of the Geneva Convention. Aren't we so quirky"
they realize they are racist ,right ?
What is making it political I wonder?
You think they would've said something before Oct 7th?
They were crying their crocodile tears over "Free parking" signs (alarmingly close to "Free Palestine") well before the Al-Aqsa Flood. Of course they would.
Existing.
"At the same time, if I wore a kippah that said, "fuck Muslims," on it, that would not be okay."
Yeah those two are both on the same level.
This is an acute overdose of "I wish nazis, BLM protestors, and the LGBT community could all coexist" brain.
wearing a cultural dress of your nation
wearing a cultural dress that say "fuck insert ethnicity"
liberal Zionist Mind: Clearly the same
Unsurprising, Zionists are the embodiment of the false equivalence fallacy
the poster of that also commented these:
yup
lmao
Daamn if this pisses off zionists that much I should get one too
The funny thing is, and I think everyone should or probably knows already, keffiyehs aren't just a Palestine thing, let alone Levant thing... they're in Iraq and Yemen...
They're an accepted part of their cultural attire, not simply a political statement... so the reddit OP over here is showing their ass by complaining about this... lmao
Classic zionist crybully tactics
I feel like it's healthy to read shit like this from time to time. It helps remind you that you can be a perfectly reasonable person minding your own business and a bad day might still be trying to have you. There are crybabies who want to make it your problem. You're never going to be able to read their mind and even if you did it'd be as if you possessed the cypher that allows you to read the necronomicon and be cursed with it's arcane knowledge. They're simply trying to make your day worse.
These are the people saying that being against genocide is anti semitic, actually. Racist to the core
This makes me want to buy a keffiyeh even though it's not exactly my style

Up there for most interesting about pages. Wow!
There is a reckoning coming for the medical industry.
I wonder if he considers a yarmulke political clothing too.
stop wearing political clothes!
I hate it here
if I wore a kippah that said, "f*ck Muslims"
Yes, these are very much the same thing
Imagine being so racist you mald over a scarf
Fr*nce be like
existing as a palestinian or recognizing the humanity of palestinians is in fact, anti-zionist. according to the transitive property of zionism, everything anti-zionist is anti-semitic. therefore, this older woman just going about her work is mathematically TurboHitler5000.
This person would probably do that too.
I hope the person who wrote this gets smothered with thousands of keffyeh. Like an entire truck load of them spills on them and they struggle to get out and get tangled up and overheat and die.
Unfortunately that's unlikely because a quality keffiyeh is a good breathable fabric so regardless of the weather outside she'd probably be quite comfortable in her keffiyeh cave. Well, comfortable except for being assaulted from all angles by textile-based antisemitism.
Like that cutscene from the Wukong game where the monk has all these magical cloths flying around him except kaffiyeh, programmed to KILL
Our medical professionals, everyone. 50% of them were in the bottom 50% of their class, and it shows.
it's not just the bottom 50%... the majority of doctors are out-of-touch morons with a superiority complex, the fact they are often from rich backgrounds and have never been told no shows constantly. the fact they are on this pedestal in society like priests were in the past needs to end. they are just some guy.
the fact they are often from rich backgrounds and have never been told no shows constantly.
Exactly! And this plays into why half of them don’t need to try that hard in school either. As long as they graduate it’s not what they know it’s who they know.
I directly hold them accountable for not simply continuing to treat women in states where abortions were made illegal. I wanted to see 1000 doctors arrested for giving life saving care. They would deserve the respect they receive in that world. In reality they chose comfort and security over their patients' lives.
Like medical students say, "Cs still get MDs".
I've heard that saying twice now, once irl and now here.
Is this supposed to denigrate physicians? Bc it's no different than saying 50% of chefs suck at making food while 50% are great at cooking.
I use it to denigrate anyone who is the braggadocios types that think they are amazing just because of their profession.
I’ve used it to describe software engineers and lawyers as well.
Isn't it meant as a satire on disingenuous use of statistics?
doctors suck though
What do you call someone who finishes last in their class in med school?
Doctor.
Big if true.
nurse who refuses to use gauze because it's political
Holy shit, that whole sub... that's just sad.
I did a bit of research on Judaism to reconcile with zionism/anti-semitism and all that, and I saw how different it is from zionism, and that zionism is actually more anti-semitic than being anti-zionist etc.
But imagine if you knew nothing about it, and then went on r/Jewish. You would be getting the WRONG impression for sure.
Looked against my better judgement, you weren't kidding. These
ers are completely buying into the antisemitic lies equating the genocidal fascist state of Israel with Judaism as a whole.It's a shame. Judaism actually has a lot of really cool attitudes and lessons to it, at least, some interpretations. It's such an old religion that it can't be described as a monoloth any more than Islam can. I think it's really important for the Left to hold onto this fact and defend our Jewish comrades who are bravely going against the grain in their communities.
Looking at zionists and it's like "holy shit, are you trying to make people become antisemitic?" If I believed everything said by zionists about Judaism, that would mean I was antisemitic.
fucking awful comments, holy shit
I did, for a split second, read that as "Mech wearing a keffiyeh" and that's now something I need to make a sketch of.
edit: nvm I shoulda known RetroGrade Minis would have it
That is one of the most cursed threads I've read in a while, holy shit
Thanks for posting so i could weaponize my anger, but it looks like their mod is genociding all the good comments already
I'm assuming everything with a hint of support is getting deleted/banned
I don’t regularly wear a kippah but even if I did, I’m not looking to antagonize. I strongly believe in no political anythings at work, even things that the majority deem inoffensive like pride pins or whatever.
I strongly believe in no political anythings at work
no political anythings at work
Work. Is. Political.
Hi! Opinionated, Jewish nurse here with guess what? Some opinions.
I fucking hate how r*dditors write
My favorite is the "Look,..." that they use before they lecture me like I'm a kid. The word is them patting me on the head before they explain the complexities of the adult world to my tiny brain.
Stormfronters for whatever reason tries way too hard to sound like they're fucking politicians.
Reading the comments there sure was a hell of a peek into the brains of these people. They genuinely say that everyone pro Palestine is a terrorist. I will admit that I haven't bothered to look at comments on Reddit, but it's pretty unsettling to read tbh.
If Israel and Hezbollah go to war - people will see suffering and death in Israel but also in Lebanon. Sadly the coverage of Israel will probably be at least ~5x as great. But there will be blood on the streets in Lebanon. I worry that some people will use the opportunity to start to use "they" and "them" when referring to anybody Lebanon. In other words "They shoot missiles into Israel so - yeah - some of them are going to die. That's how war works. Don't want to be attacked? Don't attack." The same 'logic' will be openly used for the genocide in Gaza. And this vile "They're getting what they deserve" logic will start to go mainstream and even be used on networks like MSNBC that are usually careful to not be ghoulish by saying the quiet part out loud.
