      They’re entirely based around being provocative and making Zionism and Judaism synonymous. I used to drive by their billboards on my commute reading “your church doesn’t doesn’t need an armed guard, but our synagogue does” or something equivalent. Funnily enough, i have since seen both churches and mosques with armed guards

            This is depraved. I mean I know the whole “Israeli” operation is based on dehumanisation but something about this crass, hot pink, modern bold typeface, stupid org name combo is just hitting different. It’s ghoulish. Turning genocide into a sassy corporate marketing meme. I want to physically throw up

              Absolutely, it puts a spin on the crimes that most don’t even try to, much less doing it corporate Memphis style

            Based on how that's one of their favorite arguments for why it's not a genocide I'm amazed they deleted it/didn't keep it up

              Sometimes public pressure/people calling you a Nazi for saying “look we could totally exterminate them if we wanted” accomplish more than logic argumentation

            This is so gross. I guess the Holocaust wasn’t a genocide because there were survivors.

              All their bullshit arguments could be easily weaponized against the Jewish community; they just don’t care because real antisemitism increases migration to “isreal”

          For that last one, isn't Jewish heaven and hell almost the same place? Do they not even know their own religion?

            The old Jewish conception of the afterlife is Sheol, a dark subterranean cave where we all go upon death. Gehinnom is also described as a place of spiritual purification where the wicked are punished and atone for their sins for no more than 12 months, and without punishment on the Sabbath. It's unclear whether this is a place within Sheol, a separate place, or a literal actual valley west of Jerusalem into which people were exiled to atone for their sins.

            As a kid, my Rabbi described it as something akin to a re-education camp where the wicked and greedy are brought to justice and begun down the path of redemption by way of labour and education on how their actions harmed others. Once their sentence is up, they either live on in remorse among the rest of us in Sheol, or their soul is destroyed if they are not remorseful.

        I cringed internally reading these.

        They reminded me of the time when I revisited a convenience store and I noticed that an employée and an investigator were looking at her car together. I tried to amuse her by joking that I broke into her car. She didn’t hear me the first couple of times that I said it, so I repeated myself until the investigator shook his head at me and said ‘It’s not really funny.’ I looked like a deer in the headlights after he told me that. I scurried into the convenience store, got what I wanted, and then got away from it as quickly as possible.

        I understood pretty quickly that I only made an ass out of myself by making light of a serious and ongoing situation, and at least I didn’t embarrass myself in front of hundreds or thousands of people. These dullards, on the other hand…

      It sounds like it was either made by an out of touch corporate executive or a /pol/ack trying to run a psyop - perhaps both.
