"From the Muslim to the guillotine."? See, hate speech is bad.
The only one sharing hate speech around here is you.
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
The point is that slogan is considered hateful to some. It's considered to be calling for terrible things. You probably don't mean it that way (I hope), but knowing how offensive it is to others, why would you keep using it?
Because the people claiming they find it hateful are doing so performatively in order to restrict just criticism of their favourite country's genocidal actions. Or are being earnest, but have been tricked into believing it is offensive by the former group. Either way, the outcome is a pro-genocide one.
Zagorath, succinctly expressed. Thank you.
Who gives a shit what settlers think?
from the moskva to the oder
Push the nazis back and over
would have been considered hateful by g*rmans during WW2. Death to pissrahell. Death to fascism everywhere.
So why are you using it?
As a point. I've got nothing against Muslims, I just know it's a eye catcher in this context. If that 'slogan' is hate speech and is bad (it is) then so is the other slogan. I made the point because you seem to think the other slogan is no big deal. But it is to some people. I won't elaborate or I'll probably get banned from this sub for having such a centralist/moderate attitude.
CF, please look at Zagorath's comment. Also, do some research and you'll find that these words and variations thereof have been used by Israelis as well for their purposes.
Palestinian use is about becoming free of oppression and genocide. Israeli use is about taking as much as they can from whoever they can with biblical justification which is more than questionable. Your slogan is plain provocation to violence and execution of a particular religious group.
