Jonathan Glazer's film "The Zone of Interest" (based on a novel by Martin Amis) was about how any attempt at a normal life by mass murderers is fraudulent. The story deals with an SS commandant of a nazi extermination camp trying to pretend that he is just a man providing for his family as best he can by being an efficient functionary for his employer. The film shows that his inhuman behaviour hollows out his own humanity and that the world he has created is a lie.
Glazer understands what genocide means. So when he won an Oscar for the film in March, 2024, he spoke out against Israel's genocide of the Palestinians and those who would claim that Israeli zionists, as Jewish people, have a special dispensation to mass murder others:
"Right now, we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people".
Of course, zionist scumbags shamelessly condemned this Jewish man who made a brilliant film about the inhumanity of the Holocaust against the Jews as being a self-hating Jewish anti-Semite. But those people are scumbags so un-fuck them.
For my part, this is an empty society. A hypocritical society. A shallow, vain, narcissistic ignorant society. I have no interest in its super-hero movies. Its heroic movies about the human spirit. We are the moral equivalent of nazi Germany. And I mean that seriously. Because while we don't have industrialized, systematic death-camps, we have supported decades of murderous USA rampages in the Middle East and elsewhere that have killed MILLIONS of people. And we are supporting an actual deliberate mass-extermination campaign in Gaza. And the whole time that we are doing this, we are a relatively free society, with access to information about what is going on, and the right to protest against it should we wish to. But for the most part, we don't. My recent post about selfishness (along with others I've written over the years) state that most of this isn't due to malevolence, but to the inborn indifference of most human beings to things not within their immediate "zone of interest."
Our leaders rely on this indifference and laziness and selfishness to work their genuinely malevolent interests.
But whether it's natural or not, it still doesn't change the fact that, as a people, we're nothing worth imposing upon anyone else. Our values are empty and false.
