RE: Call to HELP! Steemit is a haven for HOLOCAUST DENIERS and Anti-semites! (Read for yourself)
These very same arguments are used against Muslims, siting their religious text against them. The difference there is Jewish people are considered Jewish whether they practice, whether they support Israel or not, they are lumped together....the same way anyone who is Arab is called and thought to be a terrorist by some.
I don't know how denying/questioning the holocaust has to do with proving or caring about all these other instances and atrocities. If anything diminishing/revising our strongest example could allow for more to happen, that I strongly believe.
The fact that "revising" the holocaust, Zionism and the Rothschilds can be brought up in the same articles shows a level of racism to me. Even if they solely were responsible it's not like all those people that died were in on it? It doesn't make it okay that it happened since it was their own people perpetuating it. It's not just discussing or looking over it, it's coming from an anti-Zionist and anti-Israel place. It's literally coming from hate, hatred of the pro-Israel campaign. Which I understand and share but don't combine in thought.
When people talk or think about Jewish people and immediately go to Rothschilds, hollywood control, banking, etc that's racism. In the same way to think about Muslims and only think about oppressing women, ISIS and whatever. Putting people in a box/"typifying" people is dangerous. Stereo-types concentrate over time, hateful ideas snowball. This is exactly why 2 people were stabbed here in Portland, and died.
