Reject Hate In All Forms

This is a semi-follow-up to our previous post, of standing up against the ‘woke’ elements that are rotting away society. While the previous post concerned the ostracization and public shaming of two authors for the minor offense of being white guys who looked at boobs, this post is more about the general idea of standing up against morons and hate in your everyday life. 

Like many major Western cities, Melbourne has also been overtaken by anti-semitic racist protesters who can’t even be bothered to cloak themselves in anything other than outright hate for Israel and the Jewish people while embracing the terrorist scum HAMAS. This is unbearable and disgusting and we can’t just look the other way and pretend it's not happening. If these people want to protest war, fine, but they are not. When they call for Intifada they are calling for the murder of Jews. In the past, this included bombings and violence against women children, and the elderly in places like shopping malls and movie theatres. The very protesters who claim they want to free Palestine and are concerned with starving children are calling for war and the destruction of the Jewish people. Make it make sense. 

Anyone with a minor grasp of history knows this is how radical hate movements get started, with average people turning a blind eye hoping whatever it is will go away and not ruin their day. But what the average person should realize is that radical hate groups don’t stop. They might start with anti-semitic slurs but they will move onto a new group like the Nazis moved on to include homosexuals, the handicapped, the mentally ill, the Roma, etc, and decided all needed to be wiped off the face of the earth. This kind of movement needs to be loudly rejected by the majority to prevent its roots from taking hold and spreading through our institutions any more than it already has. 

Where is all this rant coming from? So for months antisemitic stickers and graffiti have been spreading around the city (this is very disturbing considering Melbourne is often compared to places like San Fran, a haven for minorities, hippies, LGB, etc) if there is one thing I cannot turn away from it's Nazi, fascist, communist shit in my own backyard. So we (BJ and I) like to spend our walks ripping down stickers that say such loving messages as ‘FUCK THE IDF’ or “Boycott Jewish Businesses’ with a giant slash through the Star of David. It's gross and disturbing. Both of us had family that fought and killed Nazis, my grandmother’s partner escaped the death camps where the rest of his family perished. It can happen here, and this isn’t an alarmist thing. What's going on now are just seeds beginning to sprout. 

So anyway, today we saw someone that wrote ‘Fuck Isreal’ in white paint marker. I corrected this with a marker so it read ‘Don’t Fuck With Isreal’ Well then an angry man came at us like a bat out of hell and seriously lost his shit saying I need to stop graffitiing his neighborhood etc… we explained we were correcting racist graffiti, but he didn’t care. Now why was this so disturbing? I’m used to getting yelled at but I found it sad more than anything that this man was more concerned with his property values and the appearance of his neighborhood than the rising wave of racism. Also, keep in mind that houses in this very uppity neighborhood start at least a million+ so his property values aren’t in danger, however, his morals surely are. 

Well, maybe you say he was just an old angry white guy who hates everything. Sadly he was very obviously a gay man, so you’d think he would have no tolerance for hate of any kind. But no, he has his rights now so he can pull up the ladder for everyone else. What affects him is graffiti, not discrimination or hate so fuck 'em was basically his sentiment.

However, it is important to note (see my Instagram for evidence) that this neighborhood is highly known for its graffiti or ‘street art’ so this wasn’t out of place in the slightest. But again that's not the point of the story, the point is that we as a society are so concerned with ourselves and our stuff that when fellow humans actually need our support and for us to say no to hate we are nowhere to be found. 

Now I don’t know if this man is an LGBTQ+ new liberal or an old school gay who just wants to be left alone, however, you can bet he was happy when gay marriage was legalized and he was able to marry his partner (who looked shocked by his outburst). 

I was also happy when the US passed gay marriage. That is because hate and discrimination in all forms are wrong. Society took the time to let the LGBT+ community know that as a whole we accept them, we support them, and they are just as equal in the eyes of the law as everyone else. Get married if you want! Go for it. This was the same with the civil rights movement. We said no to racism and worked together to ensure people of color were not treated as second-class citizens. (Though the Left will constantly preach we are more racist now than ever before. Please note that is bullshit).

And yet now…. History is repeating itself. People love to casually throw around the terms ‘zionist’ and ‘colonization’ and a whole bunch of other power words as if they are not harmful, as if they cannot lead to something worse. They can. It's highly upsetting to see racism out in the open in 2024, especially when it is being spouted by the rainbow-loving far-left who are all about diversity, love, and acceptance (puke!) And yet they are supporting a group that oppresses women, has no problem murdering babies, and would gladly throw every last queer off a roof. Notice they don't want to free Palestine from Hamas. Wtf? FYI Hamas is run by an extremely wealthy group, many of who don't even live in Gaza, who stole millions in aid and supplies from Gaza citizens and used it for their own gain. So as far as I'm concerned, fuck Hamas. They don't give a shit about Palestine.

When ignorance and hatred are combined it's extremely dangerous because how can you talk to a person who has no even minor grasp of history or doesn’t know the meaning of the phrases they are mindlessly chanting? And when you try to present them with facts they claim the conversation is ‘hostile’ or they are ‘triggered’ and have to walk away. Again, worrisome. 

But anyway staying on track to wrap this up… today’s run-in with the angry man more concerned about graffiti in his backyard than Nazis was very saddening as is the online woke mob I learned about this week who went out of their way to destroy people's life at the slightest misstep. Society is rotten and divided. I can’t wrap my head around it. 

It's tiresome and I wish more people would say something, do something, you know like we used to when we saw something that we knew was wrong. We said ‘OI! Fuck off Nazis scum!’ Now we pull out our phones and watch like it's some kind of spectator sport when a Jewish student is banned from their college class by a bunch of cowards with face coverings. 

FYI I used to consider myself a feminist and a democrat but I now reject those labels because the Woke Left has redefined them to mean hate and intolerance. They like to change the meaning of words, play the victim, and the group with the most trauma wins. This is why it's always very important to vote person not party.

 I guess it's easy to ignore radicalism when it doesn’t directly affect you, but someday it will in one form or another. It's already affecting women, stripping them of rights with the rewriting of Title Nine and the criminalization of abortion throughout the US. It's affecting regular men who are more isolated and lonely than ever because of the fear of being called a rapist or humiliated for trying to simply say hello to a woman. It’s affecting Jewish people, with groups stopping students from attending class, businesses being harassed and boycotted, and the government and everyday citizens being weak and slow to respond thinking I’m sure glad it's not me, let's not rock the boat...

Reject hate in all forms even if it affects your property value. Reject self-righteous victims and those who seek to ruin lives. Reject belief systems even if they come covered in rainbows and hearts. The only belief system we should all adhere to is a humanist one based on common sense and hard science. If you see hate, don’t turn away, smash it with your boot heel. You’ll always come out on the right side of history when you stand for human decency and reject hate in all forms, even when it's being spouted by a 20-year-old white chick from Columbia. 

And please don’t get your news from social media. Cross-reference stories and even if you find the answer is something you don’t like accept it. Choose Truth and logic instead of lies and ignorance. 

Now sure where to start? You can’t go wrong with Bill Maher Probably one of the few honest, informed, unbiased people left.
