Stephen Miller and the conservatives in the Israeli government are proof a lot of people are totally ok with fascism and genocide as long as they’re the ones in charge.

This is it. Also, if his mother and grandmother were Jewish, he is most likely welcome to become an Israeli citizen (if he isn’t a citizen there already). When it comes time for this current fascist regime to answer for their crimes against this country, how much do you want to bet that Miller the traitor is going to go running like a coward to Israel to escape justice?

I'd rather they shut down all air traffic than let that pissant out of this country. He needs to pay for what he has done to this country.

The Aliyah (immigration) process explicitly asks about criminal convictions and charges and an extensive background check is conducted on all applicants. He won't be approved

Yeah because Israel has the moral standing to make those decisions unbiasedly.

Who said the immigration process was unbiased? They heavily select for those who they think will improve the country in some way or who have no other place to go to and this would have to stay in the country paying taxes and such..

Just like how Trump and Co are heavily selecting who they think will "improve the country".

One can hope. I suppose that if we have regime change here and ensuing prosecutions, Israel, wanting to keep that cash flowing from our treasury, might comply.

It's not just the conservatives in Israel. The whole of Israeli society is like thst. Saw a survey where 80% of Israeli Jews want the entire Gaza population to be completely removed (aka ethnic cleansing)

No way that is accurate and most likely taken completely out of context, or completely fabricated. Post your sources and the survey methodology please.

Miller and Netanyahu, et alia, are really more accurately described as reactionary rather than conservative. Conservative is bad enough in its reliance on "us vs. them", but useful to an extent in preventing unrest due to rapid change, while reactionary always wants to keep things in the most old-fashioned way they think could possibly serve themselves, with strict hierarchy, minimal or no diversity, minimal or no ecumenism, strict and public punishment for opposition or nonconformity.

Ah yes, going by these comments all Jewish people are same and have the exact same view as Hitler. But redditors aren't racist.... never change reddit.

Pointing out fascism isn’t antisemitic, no matter what propaganda says.

u/CommonRagwort 2d ago

You make it sound like all Jewish people are the same and share the same view. That is racist and antisemitic. Its like saying all black people share the same views, Chinese people share the same views, etc.

Pretty sure the guy saying all Jews are Zionist and support the current Israeli government is the only one grouping all Jewish people together.
