This is happening online but with serious real-world consequences for people who don’t support Israel or genocide.
Canary’s non-public websites promise expansion into new avenues to continue the group’s mission of punishing Americans for pro-Palestine speech via doxxing, pressure campaigns, and now arrests and deportations carried out by allies in the State Department.
BlackNest’s web development content reveals how Canary Mission thinks of its “wins” in its efforts to influence U.S. policy. The website categorizes the group’s impacts into categories: “Change of behavior,” job loss, denials of entry to the U.S., arrests, and “deportation/forced to flee.” The site also collects mentions of Canary Mission in media, mostly from U.S. news outlets, and celebrates mentions of their impact.

In the PDF, the group lists its core values as: Follow daas torah (a concept in Orthodox Judaism about rabbinical authority), integrity, passion for the cause, anonymity, no-ego team player, and rosh gadol (or Hebrew slang for someone “seeing the big picture”).
“Fight those who hate the Jewish people” is the listed purpose, and the group’s niche is “dismantle the anti-Israel network by attacking the messenger, not the message.”
The DHS testified in court that they use Canary Mission to choose targets for deportation, so this is a very serious threat.
So much for the land of the free speech…
Fascists, sociopaths, and psychopaths don’t believe in free speech. They can’t be shamed. They don’t care about hypocrisy. They don’t possess morals or ethics. They don’t believe in the meaning of words.
They will claim to be the good guys until the very end.
Yet calling them weird was super effective since fascism relies on the people thinking everyone else is abnormal.
It’s deeper. It relies on them claiming that they’re the voices of the masses and that their brutality is cool and emotionally justifiable. Calling them evil is attacking and they want to fight, and it makes them feel powerful and cool. Weird attacks their ability to frame themselves as cool dangerous underdog heroes
It was always really just the “freedom” to speak hatred against the current out-group. Freedom of speech means nothing if its not intersected with the freedom to live a life free of harassment and discrimination
nobody noticed the anti-zionist propoganda campaign? specially on lemmy
Nah mate, anti-zionism is good, it’s needed. A zionist and a nazi are only different in name, they are the same shit and deserve the same treatment.
