The amount of pro Palestinian support is overwhelming everywhere. Only newspapers and Reddit bots and paid shills are still spreading IDF propaganda. The rest of the world sees israel for the Nazi's they are.
I think the Israeli government is authoritarian, and their scorched earth tactics against Palestinians are war crimes, but you're not doing the cause any favors by invoking the Nazis. Criticize their actual behavior.
The problem is their behavior and rhetoric towards Palestine resembles a sentiment shared by the OG Nazis
When the Israelis impose a system of racial domination on Palestinians that is objectively worse than Apartheid, I'd say you needn't bother handwringing about Israelis getting their feelings hurt. Fascists is always an alternative though - they're politicians have used it themselves.
Netanyahu himself has made racist jokes favouring white Jews over the north african immigrants, so while 'white supremacist' also works at that point, you're back to just saying 'Nazi'.
Why is it worse rhan apartheid?
Because Jews don't need Palestinians like White South Africans needed Black people for low wage jobs. So they can genocide them without a thought.
No I meant what evidence do you have that what they are actually doing is worse than apartheid?
Chiefly Nelson Mandela's own words on the matter and Noam Chomsky's. Other South Africans. The two-tier colonial system in place and TCM's recent testimony on what he saw in the occupied territories was enlightening too.
