Is deviantArt turning into devi-antisemetic-Art???

~jaakobou:iconjaakobou: reports, May 8, 2007
The Israeli-Arab-Palestinian conflict is a complex issue with many people suffering.

The narratives can be complex. I mean, which one is it?

This:



 
 
Or perhaps this?



 

Regardless of narratives and your personal thoughts on art in this conflict, there's a bigger issue at hand.

Is deviantArt placing a blind eye to antisemetic hate art?

clearly faq303 would tell us otherwise.

FAQ #303: I've noticed something I think is offensive or hateful- why is it still here?
While we absolutely prohibit the submission of what may be termed “Hate Art”, we do not consider certain symbolism to be an automatic violation of policy; it is only when the symbolism is combined with hateful and disrespectful speech or used in an openly hostile manner that we will take administrative action.


however, when we take into examination cases of harrasment and policy abuse reports, the picture becomes less lucid... some would say, murky.

simple deviantArt searchs for:
"Zionism",
"Israel",
"Palestine",
"Jewish", etc.






Shows an incredible array of plagarism and the "The Zionists!!!" ("they kill babies, rule the world, worse than nazis") hatespeech narratives.

Regardless of your knowledge about this terrible conflict; It is fairly apparent that this freedom of "Hate Art" has crossed it's lines into dark territories.

the question is left unanswered by dA helpdesk adminship.

is deviantArt turning into devi-antisemetic-Art ?

hi dear..
ithink that this make part from life and mesure of some people around the world..
Artists have sensible and peaceful hearts, they cant support seeing these bloods and tears without trying to express their feelings with theur camera or designs..
so try ti understand other's emotuons and let them express what they live and feel..
i think that there is a political category whch give all specterrs of humans to express freely their sights...
if you speak about zionism or arabo-israeli conflict, know that this is an universal reality we cant deny or ignore it...
Muslims or Jews must recognize the existence of this propaganda.. they cant ugnore its effects.. just i hope that artists reject the political offensive tools, we can transmet here all our thoughts respectfully, we listen, we comment with ipen minds and wide hearts..
artists have right to participate in this universal confluct but with their conscience not with their bildozers and arms...

you try to put end to this anger..no one can elimenate this reality, real democratic socities and communauties as here in DA give this ultimate internatuonal offer to all the artists around the world, so be equitable as you can and stop your new political arm which is :
"Elimination, opression; estermination" of this wonderful colored voices from all the planet's lands..

Zionism as Terrorism as a social and political phenomen, and we have all to particupate in its analysis and critic.. is this forbidden.. is this non-democratic act ؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟

Touch me :gallery:
~jaakobou:iconjaakobou: May 8, 2007, 12:10:30 PM
it's not like the other side doesn't use arms also... regardless, it is beyond the current issue.

is this a valid artform which should be allowed/promoted in democracy?

i think no.

i'm sure if all these "hate art" works would have had words such as "palestinian killer terrorist, baby killer", your opinion would have been reversed.

I see no reason giving this a stage bigger than it already has.
This views appear here to the same amount as they appear in the real world. The precentge is similar. Giving them a larger stage is something I think is wrong. Spreading war and hate is easier when you give them that stage. This is an art site and I want to see art and not politics. I don't use popularity to make a political statement, I do art. Each one that thinks of this site as a platform for spreading political view (regardless if they are mine) is doing wrong

A different Look At Israel
*CrimsonTigress:iconCrimsonTigress: May 8, 2007, 12:38:19 PM Mood: Pride
Well done! This seriously needed to be said! I love that when it's defacing Israel it's art. When it's defacing "Palestine" it's racist. Everyone's a Nazi, except the Nazi's.

Great article!!!

FAQ #27: How to get more Pageviews!
*CrimsonTigress:iconCrimsonTigress: May 8, 2007, 1:56:09 PM
Israel is the Jewish state. So if someone says "Death to Mecca" they're not insulting muslims, right? ... I mean, since, it's only a place, not a religion. :roll:
