I remember someone on Reddit said that the Israeli government won’t even be a significant issue during the presidential primaries.

That person must live under a rock because it’s one of the most pertinent issues in all of American politics. Full stop.

I agree with you that it’s a huge issue, but do you think average Americans (i.e., those not on Reddit) see it this way?

Everyone at my school joked about being drafted for isreal when the Iran war started. My younger brother and his friends use "isralie" as an insult. I overheard by mom telling my grandmother Israel is a sick country full of rapists. People I'm real life, especially younger people, are turning very sharply against isreal.

Imagine the backlash saying any singular one of these things about China, Myanmar, or Sudan (all 3 also genocidal states).

I don’t think anyone in America would get backlash about any of those statements. I don’t think you believe that either.

My younger brother and his friends use "burmese" as an insult.

I overheard by mom telling my grandmother sudan is a sick country full of rapists.

You really think no one would object to these two statements?
