You dumb bitch, that stereotype exists to protect people like you from everyone realizing that it's the Israeli state that enforces the illegal settlements. The crazy gun wielding settler myth is to convince people that the colonization is being done by bad actors abusing loopholes of legal protection. Telling people that you're a pacifist noodle-armed dork illegally occupying land reveals that it's the IDF and Israeli government actually stealing the land FOR you.

The crazy gun wielding settler myth

I’ve never heard this explanation before and all I have to say is it’s very hard to think of that myth as not true when there really are gun wielding settlers who do violent shit.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Well no I mean you're right. Many settlers ARE crazy and shoot up West Bank Palestinians to advance the colonization. What I meant is the myth that the settlements are illegal and Israel opposes them. Many zionists will try to tell you half truths that this only happens occasionally and they arrest people that break the law because Israel doesn't want to colonize the West Bank. Israel does sometimes arrest settlers, but they are tried in separate courts that favor them than the courts that Palestinians actually living on the land are tried in. Israel could control all traffic in and out of the West Bank if it wanted to and boot out armed Israelis but they never do.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago

Oh I see, I guess I didn’t know that was a myth at all considering Israel uses the (kibutzes?) as barracks for IDF troops. Pretty hard to deny settlements being illegal when government troops are using them. But that does make sense now thank you.

[–] [email protected] 65 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Incredible. So not only are you living on stolen land, you are getting paid to sit around and play pretend (not to be dismissive of my fellow TTRPG enjoyers, I am one too) while the IOF slaughters your neighbors.

I got some Dungeons and Dragons I would like this piece of shit to meet.

D&D for a living, Genocide as a hobby.
Every settler is a war criminal, every settlement a war crime.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 8 months ago

Imagine being a starving Gazan child learning that just a few miles from the rubble that surrounds them is a privileged manchild who can support a comfortable life for himself by playing fantasy make-believe with his friends.

One of my favorite things on the internet is watching a clueless lib retort with "but if that's true, what about America?" Only to be brutally dogpiled.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

As absolutely unhinged as a lot of these Israeli settlers sound, they are verbatim what white settlers in North America said when they were stealing land.

Like, saying the US Army was too soft on the indigenous people. Or absolutely losing their minds over the government putting even the most mild “look we’re gonna genocide them and take their land, but you just have to be a little patient” type rules in place. They felt as entitled to the land as Israeli settlers do.

The "about" section of his website:

Uri was born in the Soviet Union in 1985 and for his sins was sent to Israel in 1989. He’s an avid hiker and has gone on hundreds of small adventures all over Israel. His day job is playing D&D with kids and teenagers in schools and community centers. Yeah, he can’t believe it either.

His writing is deeply inspired by all of the above—the refugee experience, the exciting and secret places he found on his small adventures, and the cool stories woven with his young (and old) players. Also, he often makes stuff up.

Uri’s RPG writing has been published by WotC, Paizo, Mongoose and other less savory venues. which, if you value your sanity, you’re strongly discouraged from pursuing. You’ve been warned.

When not writing or working, he’s looking for strange new places or climbing trees for no reason. When not doing even that, he sleeps. Fitfully, like a dog chasing a rabbit in a dream.

Fun facts about Uri:

– He is fluent in Russian, Hebrew, and English. He knows enough French to start a war but not to end it.

– He attracts animals like a Disney princess. One time, a pigeon landed on his head and stayed there for an hour.

– He attempted to arrest a porcupine once. However, the porcupine won. Porcupines always win.

– He literally lives under a rock. This explains his unusual views on most current events.

Wait but according to liberal Zionists, it's not a settler colonial state because no one refers to themselves as settlers. How could they be wrong? shocked-pikachu

[–] [email protected] 25 points 8 months ago

The insidiousness of settler-colonialism is that it makes beasts out of otherwise mundane people, yes, correct.

Hello fellow kids, ready to do a genocide?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 8 months ago

It’s one thing to be born in a colony and continue living there because it’s all you’ve known. But it’s another thing to be loud and proud about it and get offended when someone talks shit about you. And I’m assuming he was subsidized by the genocidal government to move there.
