The passive reader and sick anti-Israel posts on Quora.

Durng the past year "Quora" a social question-and-answer (Q&A) platform has been overrun by the least able-minded supporters of falestinian dezinformatsiya™

As seen in this screen shot-Z Hamed wrote on Quora-
"Let’s demolish the zio-nazi lie once and for all. zionism is the belief in jewish supremacy, same as the nazis. Even a holocaust survivor admitted it.
The zionist entity they call (lsraeI) is an apartheid state. We saw how they treat christians. There are many videos of zio-nazis spitting on them. Let alone we saw how the IOF bombed one of the oldest churches in history that is located in Gaza.
zio-nazi lies are easy to demolish."


My replies to posts like this are meant to "enlighten" the passive reader and NOT to "feed" interract with the least able-minded.

Regarding the Hajo Meyer Quote: As a retired educator and historian, I believe it is important for the passive reader to understand the actual historical record behind these images, rather than relying on slogans or 'Holocaust inversion' tactics. Resorting to ad hominem attacks and insults regarding intelligence usually signals that you cannot engage with the documented facts. Hajo Meyer was raised in a highly assimilated German Jewish family. His primary identity was often that of a scientist and a humanist rather than a member of the Jewish community. Like many assimilated German Jews, Meyer’s trauma was compounded by the "betrayal" of the German culture he loved. Psychologically, this often leads to a deep-seated distrust of all state structures and ethnic affiliations. He replaced traditional Jewish identity with a secular, humanistic "religion" where the highest virtue was criticizing one's own group to prove one's lack of bias. Meyer’s decision to use the term "Zio-Nazi" (as seen in the meme) is a significant psychological marker. In psychology, this is often seen as an attempt to master a traumatic memory by projecting the role of the "oppressor" onto those who share the same background as the victim. Meyer knew that as a survivor, he was the only person "allowed" to make such a comparison without immediate total dismissal. This gave him a unique psychological leverage in political activism—he became a "shield" for non-Jewish critics of Israel. Meyer expressed a psychological "alienation" from mainstream Jewish life like that as a member of the Sonderkommando would. (German for "special unit") Sonderkommando were work units of Jewish prisoners in Nazi extermination camps who were forced to operate the gas chambers and crematoria. He often spoke about "moral integrity" in a way that suggested those who supported Israel had "learned the wrong lessons." This created a binary in his mind: The "Good" Survivor - those who use their trauma to fight for universal causes. The "Corrupted" Survivor - those who use their trauma to justify national security and a Jewish state. To understand the psychological motivation of Dr. Hajo Meyer, it is necessary to look at the intersection of survivor guilt, identity rejection, and the psychological phenomenon of "Universalization of Trauma." Meyer's quote represented a specific, albeit minority, psychological response to the Holocaust that sought to detach the tragedy from its Jewish particularity. Meyer operated on the belief that suffering—especially the extreme suffering of Auschwitz—must result in a total rejection of any form of nationalism. By positioning himself as the "true" keeper of Holocaust memory against the Israeli state, he found a sense of purpose. He essentially argued that his status as a survivor gave him the moral authority to "reclaim" the Holocaust from Zionism. For Meyer, the only way to make sense of the "senseless" cruelty he witnessed was to apply its lessons to everyone, everywhere. He viewed the establishment of a Jewish state as a retreat into the very "tribalism" he believed caused the Holocaust. While Dr. Meyer was a survivor, his use of the term 'Zio-Nazi' is a recognized form of Holocaust Inversion. This is a rhetorical tool used to project the crimes of the Nazis onto the descendants of their victims. In historical discourse, equating a national liberation movement (Zionism) with a genocidal regime (Nazism) is not an academic argument; it is a distortion intended to cause emotional trauma. History is a matter of archives and evidence—not memes and name-calling. We owe it to the memory of the victims to maintain the distinction between corporate market-retention and state-sponsored genocide." In conclusion: The psychological motivation of Dr. Hajo Meyer is a study in the universalization of trauma. As a survivor, Meyer felt a profound psychological need to detach the Holocaust from the Jewish experience to make its 'lessons' universal. While his personal suffering is unquestionable, his political analogies—such as equating Zionism with Nazism—are viewed by most historians and psychologists as Holocaust Inversion. He was a man who rejected his own national identity in favor of a radical humanism, but using his personal trauma to validate a 'Low IQ' insult [as the previous commenter did] is a logical fallacy. Being a victim of a crime does not grant one historical accuracy in analyzing modern geopolitical conflicts. One can respect Meyer's survival while rejecting his ahistorical comparisons.

With regard to the use of a quote from Norman Finkelstein

Adding a quote from Norman Finkelstein continues a pattern of using rhetoric to bypass historical evidence. Characterizing a nation’s security or history as a 'theatrical performance' is a tactical attempt to delegitimize lived experience.

Finkelstein’s worldview is less about history and more about his personal political inheritance. 

Finkelstein is well-known for his 'Holocaust Industry' thesis, which argues that the memory of the Shoah is exploited for political gain.

Relying on polemicists like Finkelstein to support an 'atypical' historical narrative doesn't make that narrative true; it just makes it louder."

It should be noted regarding Norman Finkelstein that his worldview is rooted in the trauma of his parents, Maryla and Zacharias, both of whom were survivors of the Warsaw Ghetto and Nazi concentration camps (Majdanek and Auschwitz).

Finkelstein often cites his mother’s belief that "We are all holocaust victims," meaning that the lesson of Jewish suffering should be an instinctive empathy for all oppressed groups.

As a historian, I believe it’s helpful for the reader to understand the ideological lens behind the quotes being posted here.

Finkelstein’s rhetoric is less about history and more about his personal political inheritance. 

Raised in a staunchly pro-Soviet and atheist household, he views the world through the prism of mid-20th-century Marxist internationalism. 

To him, Zionism is an obstacle to that 'universalist' ideology.

When he calls Israeli diplomacy 'theatrical,' he is using a polemical tactic to delegitimize the lived security concerns of a nation, filtered through a radical left-wing bias that has been historically hostile to Jewish self-determination.
