It’s an expression fgs. I care not about the feelings of Nazis. I do, however, care a lot about how far we are willing to degrade ourselves in order to defeat them.
And aside from anything else, you are just helping the enemy with this kind of utterance. Look what’s happened since, it’s been turned into 1) a big stick to smash the bbc with 2) calls to legislate on artistic freedoms 3) antisemitism the topic of the day everywhere again. What about 4 and 5? 4) raise awareness of the genocide 5) actually help palestinians in a more tangiable way
How did we do on 4 and 5?
Well I tell you what’s a more interesting question, because if they had just said ‘Free Palestine’ and ‘send your aid money here’ or even ‘stop the genocide’ or something similarly not technically illegal to broadcast, then how different would 4 and 5 be to what they are now? because they’d come without the expense of 2, maybe not 3 either, and as for 1, the BBC would actually have a leg to stand on defending themselves.
So why spoil it for everyone and take two big steps backwards? How about we use language that doesn’t make us sound no better than they are?
I’m not playing games. Are you that concerned about the feelings of Nazis?
