"haven't looked much into the data" and it shows bc if you did you would've known that arab christians are more educated than jews overall. nonetheless, ethiopian jews still do better than arabs economically and in the education sector
Not all Christian arabs in Israel identify as Palestinian, but rather as Christian arab or Aramean. But it is undeniably true that they outpace Ethiopians in education (haven't looked too much at the data), and probably in health as well.
The legal codes are for Jews, the roads are for Jews, the settlements are for Jews, the signs say JEWS ONLY.... But you'll see fools like this doing backflips to hide the Jew in Jewish supremacy.
There is a racial hierarchy of anti blackness among Jews in Israel, but that hierarchy does not account for the fact that Ethiopian Jews are higher on the hierarchy than Bosnian descent or Armenian Palestinians who are white. They oppress these people based on Jewishness
arguments like these are exactly why framing israel as a white supremacist (rather than jewish supremacist) state is harmful towards palestinians. now we have ppl claiming that palestinians are more priviliged than some jews when that's far from the truth
Ethiopia was never colonized.
For much of its history, it was one of the poorest countries on the continent.
Meanwhile, Vietnam was colonized by the French, devastated by decades of war, and is now on its way to serious economic prosperity.
If colonialism were the answer to why Africa is poor, Ethiopia should be rich and Vietnam should be broke. Neither is true.
Can we please retire this excuse?
I don't have any empathy for people who live in poverty and instead of fighting their oppressors they decide to work for them and kill innocent people who have even less than them
the thing is i don't believe that being a us veteran makes someone irredemable. the issue at hand is that very few of them have any actual class consciousness and most of them are either indifferent to their role of enforcing us imperialism or take glee in it

Marx predates the age of imperialism & the developments since his death have shown us that the imperial core working class have long been lured into class-collaboration by the privileges that their ruling class have conceded to them, all financed by peripheral super-exploitation.
op even argued that the military is less bad than ice because it's older than ice. who's gonna tell them what its main function has been for 250 years?
