Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

The nazis had about a decade to commit evil, but israel has been at it for 70+ years. We dont even know all the horrible things that have been done. So no ill stick with worse then nazis. This is unpopular opinions after all.
Yea and I respect the community, not downvoting you for doing exactly what this community is for lol
He's downvoted by people who can't accept the truth. This happens all the time to me especially if I mention the word Zionist/Zionism.
Nah. Hes being downvoted because the Israeli government isn't doing anything as evil as the holocaust. And he keeps insulting the people that disagree. Its not on the same level, even slightly, but it's still fucking evil. By all means, hate Israel for this. I have since I was a kid and the IDF killed my babysitter in cold blood. They're not nazis, but theyre evil genocidal monsters who should be reviled nontheless.
Besides gaz chambers, i would say they are similar. Both used famine as a strategy and instead of mass shooting Israel is doing mass bombardment
I think most people who call them Nazis are doing so because of the mindset. Israel is forced to exercise a modicum of restraint while Nazis had none at all, but their actions and rhetoric are extremely similar. Not saying no one thinks the IDF is doing things on a similar scale to the Holocaust (I did until like five minutes ago), but that's not really the reason for the comparison. "If it looks like a Nazi, walks like a Nazi and quacks like a Nazi, it's a Nazi" is a pretty logically sound line of thinking.
To repeat myself just in case, the Nazis' industrialization of death was on a level on its own that hopefully won't be repeated again, but the Lebensraum aspect of Nazi ideology is replicated almost exactly as a core tenet of Zionist thinking. This is why they're called Nazis.
I had actually been trying to think of a truely unpopular opinion, and it finally hit me to post this. Its a shame i dont know how to fully explain my deep hatred but the general idea is all thats needed for an unpopular opinion lol.
I get that and I think it's in the spirit of unpopular opinions. It's actually interesting how divisive this topic is. I think in my circles I have an equally unpopular opinion of the exact opposite stance which is that war happens and atrocities come out of it and picking sides in the middle east is a fools errand. I think israel was dealt a shit hand where their existence comes at the displacement of Palestinians, they have holocaust trauma and then their neighbors want them dead, and then they are given superior fire power. How is that recipe going to play out? But I know emotions are high and there has to be a "right" side and a good guy and a bad guy.
