What makes them possibly think that a youtuber with average 10M views per video and 15M subs need to take money from Hamas. They could’ve just ignore her, but they radicalized her instead, and probably another billion toddlers who watches her daily
isn’t-real takes another L
I fucking hate this recent round of hasbara because it’s really cemeted the idea in the liberal mind that antisemitism is when you disagree with an Israeli.
It has cemented that for anyone over 45.
Meanwhile everyone under 30 is officially over Israel’s shit.
This is why the Hasbara has gotten so bad, they used to be able to count on a large pool of support across demographics but that has changed, they have lost everyone who is too young to have voted Clinton. As the genocide continues it gets worse for them. They continue the Genocide because at this rate President Buttigeg won’t be able to provide cover if they try this again in 10 years, so it is either use their political capital now or watch it disappear.
They lost Piers fucking Morgan FFS.
Has it? I think Israel has very little support among American liberals these days. This hasbara is no longer at all effective.
Yup, if/when actual antisemtism spikes, it will be because of this insistent conflation
Really shows how fragile the fascist worldview is. They cannot allow anyone to oppose them, regardless of how minor or how much of a non-threat. They must expend massive amounts of resources making sure their viewpoint is the only one allowed, because even the mere idea that they could be wrong is enough to challenge their entire worldview.
Do you think it’s the same strangeness that Republicans have? “Are you asking if Republicans are fascist?” Sure, but it reminds me of how it’s not just that they should be able to be antisocial with impunity, we have to think they’re cool for being hateful too. Like you have all this power and control, so why bother with what we think about it? Is it perhaps the very idea that the thing you’re conserving sucks is an existential threat? Like you had to build it up in your head and commit a bunch of, if not physical, spiritual violence to be based in a system that turns out to suck?
I would say that all of these sorts of people would follow the same sort of idea, a kind of anti-dialectical materialism, not even “idealism” but a straight up denial of material reality and the idea of opposing viewpoints, because their ideas are so far removed from reality that even reality itself is seen as a threat to them.
I would say that US republicans are Fascist though, hell, I’d say most American liberals would be perfectly fine living in the 4th Reich as long as it is presented to them in a way that suits their sensibilities. But I also have a very low opinion of America, so I am quite biased.
I was making a bit of a joke “are you saying Republicans are fascist” to which one could go “well, clearly, duh, thanks for the piercing insight WDYMP”
I guess a salient question might be “what are they getting from believing in something so counter to reality that they couldn’t get imagining a better world is possible?” Is it the giga distain for minorities? Do they lack education that liberates? Is it some kind of distinction from one’s peers? Or is there some secret sauce?
I think they get some weird perverted sense of community that’s otherwise lacking in our culture.
Yeah, I think this is it. It’s the same reason people fall in with obviously harmful cults, or hang out with quote unquote “bad crowds.” It gives a sense of community that they otherwise lacked.
I’ve never heard of a person who is socially well adjusted and has a strong support network of caring individuals falling into fascist beliefs, it’s always someone at a low point in their life, someone who is desperate for a connection to others that they feel like they lack. Then fascists come along and tell them that (insert scapegoat here) is the reason they don’t have that, and they’ll happily believe it if it means they get a sense of community.
Hamas propaganda is when you ask people to have empathy for human beings.
I love the liberal obsession with the idea that all of their enemies must be secretly paid off by [insert State Department-designated enemy here]
They are following the natural and good inclination to “follow the money” but because they’re liberals they think it’s like literally shady guys passing manilla envelopes.
Libs and chuds both have like an imagination terminus, a horizon of reality guided by media. So the chud convinced of Soros Bucks and Antifa Supersoldiers and the lib convinced of Russiagate Election Hacker Cheeto Putino stand on opposite edges of the same chasm of ignorance hurling insults at each other.

It would explain why bribery is so easy. As long as you don’t say, “this is a bribe!” and give someone a sack of money with a dollar sign on it (or literal gold bars), then you can get away with it (see the Supreme Court trips and gifts, lobbyists for Congressmen, the whole donation ecosystem, everything Trump has done this term and the last between having people stay at his hotels to his Qatar jet, etc.).
Well at least certain people can get away with it. It seems very inconsistent. Most grunt workers can’t accept a movie ticket from a client, let alone bigger things, for example.
That is perfectly succinct I am stealing that.
“I would never get off my ass to do anything without getting paid for it, so obviously no one else would either”
Liberals can’t imagine having any firm convictions or sincere beliefs, so the only reason someone would take a stand is if they would directly gain from it.
that extends to chuds, who I guess can be considered a type of liberal by definitioan
Huh, from now on I think when someone says that about China, Iran, etc I’m going to have to ask them how that’s any different from claiming it’s the Jews.
Seeing video of Rahaf giggling and playing around on her two prosthetic legs with Ms Rachel made me fucking sob, man. Seeing kids suffering is devastating, but it wrecks me to see how after all they’ve been through they can still be kids, still have fun and laugh, and knowing that thousands of those children will never even get the chance to experience that again. It makes me feel so sick and empty.
In an interview about Rahaf’s family, Ms Rachel said that Rahaf and her mother used to have meals together with her father and brothers over video call and they’ve stopped doing that because of how scarce food is. And Ms Rachel keeps posting videos of kids in Gaza surrounded by rubble watching her videos. It’s heartbreaking for the reasons you’ve stated.
Yeah, that destroyed me. How the fuck did we even get here
Hamas, known for their extreme wealth and massive global presence
these people can’t deal with the idea that they’re the bad guys, so they have to make their victims both extremely all-powerful and weak and pathetic. i don’t understand how they don’t notice the dissonance.
It would honestly be more reasonable to accuse her of funding Hamas than being funded by them
Hamas, known for their extreme wealth and massive global presence
Funded by Israel
Every accusation is a confession.
They ought to be wealthy, I’ve been donating money and arms for years (every time I voted in US elections, just to balance it out)
How can anyone take: “From nursery rhymes to Hamas lines” seriously? That sounds like something from Robot Chicken.
What the fuck is a Hamas line.
“palestinian children should not be murdered”
Could you calm that anti-Semitism down a notch?
Probably one of those “25,000 children have died according to the Gaza Health Ministry - who are run by Hamas.”
They’re still trying to find something as catchy as “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”
arm Ms Rachel
Ms. Rachel in a mech.
Breaking news: a woman who loves children is appalled by children being mass murdered
There’s a lot of moms constantly talking on tiktok about how they’d go to war for Ms Rachel. I think the Zionists are barking up the wrong tree here
The first rule of working retail is don’t mess with white moms, especially when you are in the wrong. They might actually use their righteous wrath and privilege to crush you.
Matt Lieb said that if you make parents choose between abandoning Ms Rachel and being Hamas, you’re gonna have everyone choose to be Hamas.
No no let them bark.
The radicalization of single mothers coparenting with their TVs is real
Imagine being mad at someone because she’s advocating for children with the bad and wrong skin color. Zionazis are so fucking racist man.
Hoo boy have I a story for you!
Apparently a hospital had pictures drawn by Palestinian children which they took down because a pro-Israel group told them it was making Jewish patients feel uncomfortable and harassed; many of those children are probably dead now.
Yeah I remember this story, christ.
I hope they’re literally fucking haunted by the ghosts of all those children they casually slaughtered.
Given that 82% of Israelis support the expulsion of all Palestinians from Gaza and roughly half support killing all residents of a “conquered enemy city”, any humanisation of Palestinians is extremist.

I’d never heard of her, but my kid’s the right age and needs more exposure to English, so now her channel is on for hours a day in the supafuzz house
Good choice too. The way she does her show is top tier for developing toddler brains.
Is there any evidence of educational benefit? I don’t think there is (still put it on though)
According to my partner who teaches littles, Ms Rachel uses a lot of techniques that work. I’m not a teacher so I can’t comment much more on it.
Ms. Rachel is really great. Patient but captivating like mr Rogers
Today we call upon the full power of the united states executive system to investigate barney the dinosaur for too many smiles and hugs. -very normal empire a few decades before dissolving
very normal empire a few decades before dissolving
We can’t wait that long
This is just yet another proof of the smear campaigns backfiring and hasbara losing ground
If you tell parents that the one unproblematic children’s youtuber is antisemitic, they are going to look into the claims before switching back to Caillou or Spider-Man impregnating Elsa
I will defend Ms Rachel to the death if it keeps Blippi out of my house.
Fucking truth.
These ghouls won’t be happy until every child is watching paw patrol.
broke: “thats antisemitism”
woke: thats based and rachel pilled
