    I was gonna say this 82k isn’t much, but then I realized that that’s almost 1% of Israel’s population. If that’s all people who have problems with Israel’s current state, then yeah they’ll probably go even further off the deep end in the coming years. That said, Israeli society is already so insane that it doesn’t matter much at this point. Very few people in Israel actually want the genocide to stop, so their absence shouldn’t change much in the short term. In the long term it decreases the odds of Israel changing of its own accord, but I don’t think anyone was counting on that anyway.

    This would decrease the number of people who advocate for Israel’s violence in the countries who provide weapons and political cover, all the while the violence gets worse.

    I don’t think Jews are a significant fraction of the people supporting Israel’s genocide. I mean, they support it at below to above average rates depends on where you are and who you ask, but there aren’t enough of them for their immigration to affect the big picture.

    Basically what I want to say is that the “limit state”, for lack of a better term, of zero anti-Zionist Jews in Israel and zero Zionist Jews abroad is very close to the current situation, so there’s not much room for change in that direction. We can say that modern Israel is in that limit state. And that leads us to…

    This doesn’t bode well for Israel long term.

    Exactly. Israel is kinda fucked when gen alpha and the generation after them grow up.
