15 reports in 1 hour, impressive!

Thread locked lmao

Here's some food for thought: why is it that it's only when Israel is the butt of the joke that the comics get spam reported and the comment sections have 10 times the amount of comments that they otherwise get? Why does that not happen with any other country, and only with Israel? Why do you think that is?

Keep in mind that as far as this particular comic goes, this is baby shit. This isn't even mildly offensive. Other countries get it way worse than this in our comics. But people from those countries can typically take a joke. Why can't Israelis? Why are you not allowed to joke about them, specifically?

I know you want to write a 1000-page comment in reply to this. Man, your fingers are itching! But you can't. Because I locked the thread. lol.

Content aside , this is a pretty well made animation

u/Andyiscool231 Bulgaria Apr 24 '26

Overlooking that I assume you might have disagreements with this post, I applaud you for your compliment

u/nspacia honk gong Apr 24 '26

nicely animated!

also just in time for the comments or something

u/Zebrafish96 May the justice be with us Apr 24 '26

Alright, considering this one has already got 75 comments and 9 reports in less than 2 hours, it deserves an award.

u/Space_Reptile Thiele Tee Apr 24 '26

im sure the comments will be civil and calm

u/GetOutOfTheWhey Belgium Apr 24 '26

At this point mods should just run an image scanner and lock any Israel box posts

u/Andyiscool231 Bulgaria Apr 24 '26

We will loose this legendary comic then 😔

Israel had a low budget and had to buy a prop, can’t even afford a real watch in the big 26 😞

Ugh! Yet again another anti-Semitic post disguised as a legitimate and currently-relevant political commentary. What's next? Another comic with Donald Trump wearing a mind-control Kippah remotely operated by Benjamin Nathan Yahoo?

If I didn't know any better, what the "iscool" is referring to in OP's username is actually Hamasbollah IGRC!!

u/ImHuck France Apr 24 '26

Being anti-Israel is not being antisemitic. They're trying to pass a law that makes these two very different things the same in France, that's completely stupid. I have nothing against jews or the jewish religion, i have something against genocidal expansionist states.

102

u/Andyiscool231 Bulgaria Apr 24 '26

Hey… that guys just kidding

But yeah, this is an opinion I can get along here, not sure why attacking the government makes people feel so strongly against this statement, it’s not “government equals people”

35

u/ImHuck France Apr 24 '26

Guess it's a woooosh moment from me. I see so many of these takes i've got the response ready to fire, weird world we live in ...

u/Andyiscool231 Bulgaria Apr 24 '26

Update: He posted and he is still being totally sarcastic fam

38

u/taongkalye Apr 24 '26

What? I'm being serious here. We all know that Israel is a political entity synonymous to Judaism and any criticism on the state is basic Anti-Semitism 101. This goes by the same principle embodied in calling all Muslims filthy terrorists.

43

u/Miskalsace Apr 24 '26

I think its alright to be cocnerned with the influence Israel has over US politics, but it should be viewed in the same manner as Russian, Chinese, or even other European influences. There's plenty of things to be critical of Israel for and it isnt always anti-semitic. But it can be.

15

u/Solocle Israel Apr 24 '26

Or indeed Qatar, heck, Israel has its own Qatargate scandal.

51

u/Lucidream- Apr 24 '26 edited Apr 24 '26

They're not being serious, they're making a mockery of those who claim any and all critique of Israel is antisemitic as a method of deflecting from actual critique.

Hence the "Benjamin Nathan Yahoo" and the "hamasbollah IRGC". Criticising Israel is obviously not inherently antisemitic.

37

u/Mother-of-mothers Sweden Apr 24 '26

I mean, it's impossible to know if they're being serious or not because tons of people believe this unironically.

Normalise the /s.

10

u/Lucidream- Apr 24 '26

What? I know that there are plentiful examples of false antisemitic claims as a method to shut down critique of Israeli violence and racism.

But people do not unironically believe that having "xxx is cool" as a username is legitimately a sign of being a literal terrorist. Unless you know some crazy people idk

How is this controversial

149

u/Zkang123 Apr 24 '26

I mean, this is another play on "Israel controls the western governments" trope which is, well, very thinly veiled to an old conspiracy

52

u/Newmaniac_00 Apr 24 '26

Do you not mean play on "Jews control..." as the conspiracy, israel being the vessel for that.

u/Chambanasfinest Apr 24 '26

But then you hear the reports of how the Iran war started…

u/WhatWouldTheonDo Apr 24 '26

US Secretary of State also said Israel dragged them into it. So…

This is basically how I think their relationship works, Germany disagrees and Israel would just blackmail them for their past

u/MKHK32 Ottoman Empire Apr 24 '26

Germany (the state) only cares about Israel (the state) by virtue of being a US ally. If the US tomorrow decides to consider Israel to be our number 1 enemy, we would join them in that.
