Sorry Germans, but the zionists will be excluded.

Death to “Israel”, death to Germany, and of course, death to AmeriKKKa.

    It’s defederation. It eliminated them from the Lemmy instance, not life.

    however, the idea that 99.9% of germans will need to die to dissolve the german state i feel crosses a line from us supporting the end of genocide to us calling for a genocide all our own.

    No one is trying to actually kill Germans. This is the same kind of reaching that people engage in to get angry about “death to America” or even “unlimited genocide on the first world” memes. You are perfectly aware that this is a joke about defederating an instance and not literally killing people.

      hence me not downvoting or reporting because i have other context. however i don’t think it’s as much a reach as you say it is when the purpose of a disinfectant is to kill, and it’s not all that clear that “eliminates 99.9% of germans” means “eliminates 99.9% of german participation on a single fediverse instance”

      if you and the mods think this is all fine, that’s fine. my critique is not meant to be criticism of your stance, just of the effectiveness of your messaging. if i’m alone in finding it muddled, i can live with that, but i suspect if i found it muddled others do too

        Actually, I specifically made sure to choose a container of wipes that said “eliminates” and not “kills” (which is a common marketing term) because I wanted to make sure this was clear.

        Fair enough, of course I can’t control how you or anyone else perceives my message. However, I made this as a shitpost to amuse other anti-zionist leftists and not as propaganda to try to change anyone’s mind. If this makes liberal zionists (Germans or otherwise, but to clarify I’m not saying you are one) angry, for example, that doesn’t bother me.

      You could maybe change “eliminates 99% of germ[ans]” to 99% of zionazis. It’d be more accurate. I get the word play but The Quuuuuill is probably right that it’s easily mistaken for being anti-german as written.
