The Israeli regime's warplanes fired a number of missiles towards targets in the outskirts of the Syrian capital Damascus, some of which were intercepted and destroyed by the Syrian armed forces' air defense.
I don’t expect anyone to cater me. I expect to be able to express my beliefs and lived experience.
In this case, it turns out my discomfort was based on a false belief. I had falsely believed that calling Jews “dogs” was a long anti-Semitic tradition. I did more research and discovered that actually historically they were called rats and lice and very few examples exist of anti-semitics tropes comparing Jews and dogs.
The most salient example of that was an American trend to hang a sign on your shop that said “No Jews or dogs allowed”, but that doesn’t meet the standard of what I had believed.
Speaking of, if you wanted a primarry source of Nazi antisemetism then watch The Eternal Jew. It is a Nazi propoganda movie that a lot of colleges make students watch as an excersise to show the climate of antisemetism. That one uses the rat insult a lot, and has some really traumatizing photage of a dead guy in a ghetto covered in rats as people walk past him.
Watching that movie was very rough for me but I felt like I left with a better understanding of what living in Nazi Germany was like. I can’t imagine living in a world where something so brutal is just playing in movie theaters.
