No, no, antisemitism isn't about hating jews its about hating zionist. The military industrial complex tells me so. /sarcasm/

Though thats how alot of people treat it...

[–] Darth_Lemmy@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

not all Jews are zionists

[–] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Not all Zionists are Jews. Humanity really needs to stop our imperialistic ways. Every piece of land is accounted for and to get more you have to bury the people who reside on it.

Or start building underwater cities!

[–] Darth_Lemmy@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago

that's also true

[–] Asidonhopo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

The vast majority aren't

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago

In fact many Zionist are antisemitic. They want Jewish people to have their own nation so that they'll go live there instead of near them.

Just fyi, the slash in /s or /sarcasm isn't some weird bracket, it's meant as an XML style closing tag, meaning "end of sarcasm". In full it would look as follows:

<sarcasm>Things are going great!</sarcasm>

But people drop the opening tag and the <> for convenience.

[–] squaresinger@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (3 children)

No, the / has nothing to do with xml. It's a fake IRC command.

They were all in the style of /commandname.

You know, people tend to use sarcasm more in chats than in XML documents.

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 7 points 2 months ago

I'm aware of slash commands. If it's a /sarcasm command, why would it be at the end of the statement?
What's your source for this? I'm pretty sure "/s" means "end of sarcasm", borrowed from XML/HTML.

Speak for yourself

[–] 0x0@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

I don't remember ever seeing /s on IRC.
It's always meant </sarcasm> to me.

[–] JuxtaposedJaguar@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

Antisemitism is everything I don't like.
