    Imagine being so ugly your own government says publishing a photo of you is antisemitic.

          Yeah so like he’s an ugly piece of shit as a person but i mean if we’re appraising the guy’s features i think he’d generally just be considered average looking if he weren’t sneering all crazy and didn’t have the religious mullet thing going on and had a shave and weren’t dressed in the baby killer uniform

              “If you’re not physically attractive, that means you’re a bad person inside” is a really fucked up sentiment that you should retract immediately.

                Be reasonable, the comment you’re replying to still leaves room for good people to be ugly for other reasons. The statement that a filthy mind will make you ugly does, however, imply that you can’t look good while being a bad person, which uh, totally reasonable I can’t imagine there are any counterexamples to that.

    I don’t really see how this is antizionist in a meaningful way. I do see how this could be antisemitic.

    Posting and sharing stuff like this just make you look bad imho. There are so much more effective ways to make Israel look bad instead.

      That was the face of a terrorist laughing at a Palestinian girl that was being tormented by the terrorist group. What does painting that face on a flag that represents the terrorist state have to do with any religion?

              To give OP credit, I think the connection theyre making is with the “happy merchant” image of a bearded Jewish man hunched over, cackling and rubbing their hands together menacingly. My comment was that laughing evilly is too general to associate with that image, because the happy merchant is meant to specifically convey scheming underhandedness (an anti-Semitic trope) and the photograph doesn’t frame the soldier as scheming. He’s just generally sadistic.

        Greatly enjoying the irony of years of “Zionism is antisemitism” discourse (unrelated but have you ever checked how many synagogues endorse Israel and how many denounce it?), the online left have now come full circle to “being Semitic is antisemitic”

        It’s giving “there is a Israeli ethnicity” (arguably pro Zionist) and “this is what they look like” (arguably anti semitic).

    Pretty clear similarity to historical antisemitic tropes, even this one from the 1990s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_Merchant

    The most charitable interpretation of this guy’s face becoming viral is that the sneer is a sort of Kubrick stare, a depiction of the moment a person is debased from all morality and gives in fully to evil. This is the only reading that doesn’t make this phenomenon at least unconsciously antisemitic.

    If we’re being honest, the image has likely gone viral because the guy looks almost exactly like an antisemitic illustration. There is little upside to weaponizing it against Zionism. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s an op to lend credence to the claims of the “antisemitic left” opposing Zionism.
