    The reason Islamophobia is rising in Germany is that Germany aggressively censors anything critical of Israel because it incorrectly conflates it with antisemitism, which means it’s implicitly endorsing Israel’s genocide of Muslims. Of course Islamophobia is going to increase when it’s effectively supported by the state!

        We can do a venn diagram of people that think Jews are committing genocide and against which group. White supremacists believe Jews are doing a genocide against white people, The tiktok crowd thinks Jews are doing a genocide against muslims.

        Both of these groups hate one another despite the fact they’re saying basically the same things. Hopefully it stays that way, some really bad things happen when the Nationalists and Socialists realize they have common ground in their hatred of Jews.
