They’re not doing it “because” of Gaza protestors; that’s just one of their manufactured excuses. If that weren’t an issue, they’d just go that much harder persecuting immigrants or trans people or “woke” or whatever.
Let me say it again another way, just to drive the point home because folks are still way too complacent about it:
It doesn’t matter what any non-fascist does, no matter how innocuous. Every single one of us is a subversive person committing wrongthink and they will be coming after us, even if they have to invent complete blatant lies out of thin air because we have done literally nothing but grovel and supplicate ourselves to their control. Nothing will save any of us except solidarity and resistance.
You’re right. But using the very much acceptable (by the population) form of bigotry against Muslims was always going to be the starting point.
It’s really easy to start with the “terrorist” labeling and expand it to mean any group. Which is now in the form of “antifa”. Another vague term like “terrorist” that they can slap onto anyone that they want so your grandma and my uncle will feel safe.
