“You Muslims must die!”
Wadea Al-Fayoume a 6 year old Palestinian American boy was just stabbed to death in Illinois by his landlord shouting these words. His mom Hanaan was stabbed as well and in critical condition.
Can we criticize this or would that be considered supporting Hamas?
I was about to write something on social media about how horrible of a crime it was, but I didn’t want to lose my job
If you don’t openly call for Palestinian genocide you support terrorism
What are you? An antisemite?
learns that Palestinians are also Semitic
:shocked-pikachu:
What the fuck
Death to America
classic 2Pass-
wait a minute
I will not rest until every single post on this website ends with “Death to America”
Death to America
Death to America
I hate it.
This is the exact same cruelty that was in the air in ‘02.
If our batshit insane media would fairly represent the conflict, shitheads like this wouldn’t hate innocent children.
The conflict itself exists because of people like this
That is deeply backwards thinking. What reason would this miserable fucker have to upend his life to murder a child if not for the decades of media justifying western imperialism by portraying Muslims as vermin?
You’re right that everyone is a product of their environment, and there is a world where people like this aren’t so heavily propagandized that they resort to murder and genocidal thinking.
I can also see how that statement could appear anti-Semitic, but it’s not. Because this guy is in the same camp as school shooters and American “great replacement” nazis. They have totally bought into the lies and perpetuate violence in service of the fucked up systems they buy into.
I say this not as a challenge but, I suppose, a failure of my reading comprehension. Which statement could be read as antisemitic?
Just the phrase “people like this”. We know here that I’m talking about reactionaries and zealots, but out of context it could be read as (((people like this)))
I was talking about my own post of that wasn’t clear
Some shitheads would still be bigoted pieces of crap and do fucked up shit like this, sadly.
yeah but, like, less stabbing is a decent goal right?
Think about it critically: How often is someone murdered in the USA specifically for being Irish? Even though they were once a wildly minoritized group, only a few steps in standing above the demonizing black people faced at certain points in history, and to this day lots of stereotypes that would suggest the Irish being thought of as alcoholic, violent untermenschen get tossed around casually, and yet today throughout the country you would need to search and search to find anywhere that someone would encounter actual violence, let alone be murdered for simply looking Irish, especially a child. Could you find literally one or two alcoves? I assume so, it’s a big country with many cults and similar social formations, but that is nothing, nothing compared to the institution of Islamophobia (or anti-black racism) in this country.
Murderous racism does not simply spring from the Earth fully-formed. It is cultivated, groomed, and endlessly reproduced by segments of the powers that be for specific social purposes. Treating it as simply something that happens due to random chance and the moral failings of individuals is a product of the liberal refusal to consider systemic solutions to problems.
Yeesh. All I meant was that you can’t blame all of this on the media, and that even if by some miracle, all media stopped with their panicky bullshit, there would still be a good contingent of racist fuckwads who would continue to carry out violent acts.
I’m not saying we shouldn’t try making progress, I’m just saying there’s more to it than one point of radicalization.
You are still avoiding the question: “Where does racism come from?” Does it just emerge in the souls of Bad People from no previous source, or is it transmitted? Where is it transmitted from?
Racism as we see it is a symptom of the imperialist social order, not a primary mover. There is no reason to believe that if we overturned that social order and made deliberate effort to root out the reactionary warping it has inflicted on the minds of useful idiots, that we would see incidents like this beyond the highest level of freak deviation from the norm, rather than the mere spike that the event in the OP represents. The world can be better, humanity can be better, but it requires looking more closely at what is currently making them worse.
Racism is a learned behavior, and there isn’t one single source. This is what I have indicated multiple times. I’m unsure as to how this has become an argument.
How is it learned? Do the owls teach it? Do the ferns? Perhaps the wind?
… bro, are you ok? You’re making zero sense.
Just to appease you, one of the possible *many *ways to learn how to be a racist would be from the behaviors of the people around you, such as family and friends. The point I’m making is that the media is not the sole point of radicalization and that while them cleaning up their shit would help, it wouldn’t completely eradicate racist fuckwads.
I’m not sure what you think I’m saying, but I’m just saying there’s more to it than just one single thing. Now chill the fuck out.
seeing shit on
that this guy is a polish jew and that ‘they need to be dealt with’ (re: the jewish community). so much genocidal rhetoric out and about now. when will we get back to the point where the media decries germans and swedes as swarthy?As soon as we deal with the Melancholic Danes and Perfidious Belgians
I knew this day would eventually come, fuck
Of course you would, you have the sloping brow of one of those Pusillanimous Luxembourgers

I truly believe some of that is intentional astroturf to discredit support of Palestinian liberation or being anti hate crime, as well as also internet pilled individuals so far down the racism pipeline they exist in some 5th dimensional space of hate.
That is never gonna happen
media that whipped him up into a killing frenzy now condemns man they convinced to do this. No this won’t effect how they portray muslims going forward
Hasn’t changed how they keep portraying the Chinese and East Asian people
“I know there’s gonna be people who say, ‘We condemn this heinous crime,’ who will say, ‘Hate has no home here.’ That’s not enough,” Rashid said.
President Joe Biden released a statement on Sunday evening, saying:
…
“This horrific act of hate has no place in America, and stands against our fundamental values: freedom from fear for how we pray, what we believe, and who we are.”
Literally doing the thing that the father told not to do.
Biden two minutes later:
“Those Palestinian terrorist babies deserved it.”
“Condemning” a violent act is as effective as sending a prayer to the victims. You’re the most powerful man in America and all you do is send empty words like you did after the last dozen mass shootings.
“Don’t just give us some useless platitudes and then do nothing”
“No”- liberals
The Americans are a violent people who knifed 40 babies to death…
“I John Brown am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away, but with Blood. I had… vainly flattered myself that without very much bloodshed, it might be done”
And the anti-muslim hate crime spree has already started.
Won’t let that stop MSM from fearmongering about roving gangs of antisemites beating up Jews though!
And then when Jews do get beat up by neo Nazis, the media will talk about why it’s so important that we don’t criminalize nazism.
America gets to have both!
We need more music about Mao tbh
Music brings people together, so maybe this is the only way forward
Hey theres a significant lack of modern music w communist subtext. Going forward if youre gonna create political media that should be a standard
We all know why this man did this, and the propaganda machine behind it, but all I can say is
He was a landlord too, you can just see who he was. His face is in the video, fox news boomer
Mao
Holy shit did someone also read the post edit of the article ? Because I remember reading the article in the morning and I could swear this part was not there :
“Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas released a statement, saying”
…
“There is no humane world that can and should tolerate the murder of an innocent child because of his identity. The tragic events in the Middle East, begun by the brutal terrorist attacks by Hamas, have brought ideologies of hate to the fore across the world - notably antisemitism and Islamophobia. This must end. The diversity and inclusiveness that define America must prevail.”
Fuck this people they are trying to do the “but hamas” thing over the body of dead a Muslim child in the US.
We’re back in 2001 baby, murdering innocent Muslims is their fault for being Muslim again.
i feel thats a sensible statement. there are good and bad people on both sides
“The people living in concentration camps started it. Bigotry against Muslims and Jews is all their fault.”
He’s also implying that the way to end this bigotry is to complete the genocide against Palestine, since they’re the ones to blame for creating and spreading this prejudice. How is it sensible to use the body of a Palestinian boy to advocate killing more Palestinians?
This is EXACTLY the same as bringing up “gangs” after a black child is lynched. Or bringing up “bankers” after a Jewish child is murdered.
It’s just invoking a vague concept (in this case, “Hamas”) that scares all the white people due to being “bad thing” and the only relation to the situation at hand is the race of the victim (and the frothing racism of the perpetrator). It’s victim blaming.
Bringing up Hamas here is almost unbelievably racist, except that there is no level of racism I wouldn’t believe from Homeland Security.
Yeah there are. But I’m more angry about the people who invited this violence onto their own population and have institutional support that results in the murder of a boy thousands of miles away.
