Apparently Fruit is Anti-Semitic Now

I'm going to be honest: the article in question is such a faggoty whine that I reflexively take the side of the people disciplining him.
In general, every activist involved in this conflict, on both the Palestinian side and the Israeli side, is a drama whore and a liar. No one should be believed. Maybe this guy's boss is some insane Zionist who really got angry over "anti-Semitic fruit." Maybe the fact that this guy won't say exactly what he was told was anti-Semitic about it is a tell that he's misrepresenting something here, be it the content of the image or his behavior in the workplace or the exact nature of the complaint or any number of other things. The important takeaway here, to me, is that he is an immigrant NHS employee who is now suing the NHS—and thus draining the medical funds of a country that was kind (and foolish) enough to take him in—over some ethnic grudge happening thousands of miles away and a slight that may or may not be made up.
Deportation from Britain is the mildest option for how someone like him should be dealt with. And maybe some of his bosses and coworkers too if his representation of things is anywhere near accurate, because it's not like the Israeli side is really any better, but suffice to say that he's failed to garner my sympathy.
Almost everyone on the Palestinian side is a Woke leftie who only got there because "brown, poor good. rich, 'white' bad." They themselves haven't changed, they are still the same whiny losers who are desperate to be victims. And on the Israel side is the Jews who taught them that behavior in the first place.
If it wasn't the first chance in forever to actually make any anti-Israel strides without the full force of thunder being instantly brought down on you, it would be the easiest case of "let them fight" yet.
100% agree. Can’t stand the Palestinian protesters, but the Israeli lobby is a far, far greater immediate threat to America. We can always nut up and crush these weak ass lefties at any time, but AIPAC wields real overwhelming power in our politics and culture.
I'm always against the idea of "enemy of my enemy" situations, because empowering one to crush another will always backfire (as the Jews are literally learning in this situation), but its absolutely in our best interest to take advantage of the chaos to try and get some footholds.
All foreign wars are an opportunity for ego gratification for the modern western man, and to be a horrible person in a socially legitimated manner. Like everything else in his vapid, ennui-filled life, it is a consumption good.
Step right up, step right up, here we have pro-Israel. You can call other people terrorists, anti-semites and invoke the Holocaust! A gorgeous opportnity! Any takers? And here we have pro-Palestine! You can pretend to feel sympathy for little brown kids, and accuse other people of killing children, supporting genocide and war crimes! All in this one package! Do we have a bid?
Medical staff in the nhs are already doing that.The entire system needs a serious auditing and the same with canada.
Yes. As an immigrant worker in the NHS, he was almost certainly part of the problem before this. But he’s an even bigger part of the problem now.
In general even if there was zero immigration.The same goes for these employment courts.
I'm not saying all the native employees are great saints, and I'm sure there are plenty of awful people among them, I'm just saying that if we're playing statistics "immigrant NHS worker" is an even more concerning descriptor than just "NHS worker" on its own.
Not having read it, the Watermelon is used as a symbol of Palestine in places where support would be "sactioned" in some ways. Its an actual dogwhistle, which makes this sound like a grift aimed at free speech types who don't know the implications.
Not that it SHOULD be sanctioned, but sympathy is naturally more present in a situation where you acted completely normal and were punished vs a situation where you wer intentionally antagonizing an authority and then cried foul when they retaliated.
Personally I've always been of the opinion that sufficiently annoying behavior should be grounds for retaliatory violence, so I'm more inclined to have sympathy for the guy who threw a punch after 3 hours of "I'm not touching you" then i am for the I'm not touching you guy.
That said, fuck jews.
They REALLY hate watermelons. First they were racist because "something something black people" and now they anti-semitic because "something something muzzies".
I didn't know that.
I knew they hated cheese and dairy because most of they/them are lactose intolerant.
Its because it represents the flag on keyboards that don't have it.
Americans think that it's some sort of grave insult to say people like watermelons and fried chicken.
The European mind cannot comprehend this.
Yankees don't understand that 60% of things associated with blacks are just things associated with the South in general.
Problem is the people who make media don't want to interact with a smelly Confederate racist, so they just apply all the standard hillbilly overall tropes when they portray them. Leaving it to seem like basic Southern staples, like fucking fried chicken and watermelon (poverty food and great for dealing with the heat, something we all needed), are just black things.
So its a case of Hollywood creating reality for people, and becoming so deeply entrenched that you can't even tell people otherwise. Like they did with 18 being a magical age number, despite that basically being only in California/Florida and a few irrelevant states.
Whoa, careful there, you can't go speaking about retarded age of consent laws like that unless you want to be labeled a pedophile for quuestioning things.
God I wish more people understood how weird and cringy the rest of the world considered Americans for worshiping 18 like it's a magic number.
Good, if that's the only response they have left that means I've outplayed them and they are seething about it.
Truth doesn't matter when being labeled a pedophile and enough people complaining about it will get you banned anywhere you go.
Well this article is certainly an escalation in the never-ending competition between Israelis and Palestinians to determine who is better at playing the victim.
My main gripe about the image is 2 of those figs should be falling off the table. Well, that and the further of the two watermelon slices is done badly so the interior looks like the exterior. Was this somehow done with shitty AI?
Other than that it looks truly delicious.
Watermelon glass and floating onions. The picture is as fake as Israel.
This statement makes me think there was some predetermination involved.
"Look, all I said was 'Death to Whitey!', how was I supposed to know he was Jewish?"
Oranges be like "I hate the juice"
