minus-squarenednobbins@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoTiming matters. I have family in Austria. I like a lot of things about Austria and I also don’t approve of a lot of things the government does and did. If someone were to have voiced that sentiment loudly in 1942, they’d probably be an asshole.
minus-squarePerogiBoi@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-25 months agoSo from your definition, me having family there and having some positive sentiment about some things I experienced there quantifies me as an asshole. I find the prejudgment interesting. I used to only get this from right wingers for being Jewish but now I get it from both ends haha. Take care!
minus-squarenednobbins@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoYour post completely ignore my first and main sentence. It’s the timing that makes you an asshole, not your sentiment. Israel is currently engaging in genocide. I know it. The UN knows it. Dogs know it.
