Also, Gen Z Israelis are more far-right than any other generation in Israel; they're Netanyahu and Ben-Gvir's biggest supporters. 73% of 18-24 yo's identify as right-wing. They're least likely to support a two-state or one-state solution.

Also the same demographic that's getting fucking owned in Gaza right now.

Israelis think they're immune to this shit because they've been so heavily propagandized on the "Making the Desert Bloom" shit. None of the proles realize how fucking energy intensive and how much waste desalinization actually produces. And nobody at the top cares about anything except packing as many new Israelis into the settlements as possible.

There's a special irony in it all, as Israel's in the hot zone. Neighboring Jordan clocked 113 °F this year. Even Jerusalem, a low-altitude and historically cooler city, reached 95 °F. The country was full of brush fires all through the summer. There's a real reason to suspect that the Oct 7th revolt was fueled by Palestinians simply seeking to escape the extreme weather conditions in Gaza. And even before the revolt, you had Israelis abandoning the settlements in favor of cooler climes.

Even if you can just ignore climate change, you can't ignore all its knock-on effects.

Alright but how aggrivating is it that they put left/right on the right/left of the graph! Who thought this was a good idea?

It's a 0-100% scale for the question, though. 100-0 would be a bit strange.

Could be like "% who say global climate change is not a threat"

[–] Adlach@hexbear.net 2 points 11 months ago

That's not the question they asked on the survey, though

Wouldn't work for Israel either way lol

also that gap between left and right for the US is wild

WTF is going on with Singapore's numbers

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 9 points 11 months ago

The centrists are further left than the left? The fuck

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 8 points 11 months ago

I wonder what’s causing this; usually a heavy skepticism of climate change correlates with a heavy fossil fuel industry, but the old joke is that the Jews settled in the one part of the Middle East without massive oil reserves. Some other carbon-intensive industry?

This is what liberals are talking about when they say 'bipartisanship'

[–] mayo_cider@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago

This also shows how fucked the perception of left is, I'd expect like a few percent of the actual left not agreeing with this anywhere, with those still unlearning the propaganda and all the accelerationists on the other side

Israel is a desert. What would they know about any of this??
