'Palestine' Arabs cheered for Hitler - Pt. IIIIII
1945: “Haj Amin’s popularity among the Palestinian Arabs and within the Arab states actually increased more than ever during his period with the Nazis.

So, this is ultimately a complete failure when it comes to recreating the energy of the "Nazi revive or Israeli government" quiz.
Let's look at an example:
"[-] is a cancer. Radiate it."
A very important aspect of this phrase is that whether or not it is bad obviously depends on what the blank is. "Nazism is a cancer" is a perfectly fine phrase. "Racism is a cancer" is a perfectly okay phrase. In reality, the difference between "Jews are a cancer" and "Zionism is a cancer" is an extremely obvious and extremely important one. Jews are a people, Zionism is an ideology.
Now, let's compare that to a question off of the quiz that this is parodying:
"The [group] aren’t educated towards peace, nor to they want it... To me, they are like animals, they aren’t human." (- Israel)
This game is a bad parody of the Zionism vs Nazis quote game. It draws it's quotes from random people instead of important figures. For example a random Internet comment got a thousand likes claiming the ___ control the economy. Who made that comment? Was it Nick Fuentes or Hasan Piker? Did the comment mention Jews or Zionists? The note mentions the Rothschild family but was that in the quote? It's left so vague I can only assume it was Zionism. Even worse none of the comments are stated to actually mention Jews or Juediaism it's all about Zionism. The survey intentionally conflates Zionism with juediaism which harms both Palestinians and Jews by emboldening antisemitism.

Perhaps you should take a look at the alternative of Zionist or Nazi. Where the people who made those quotes all hold some degree of institutional power, as opposed to your attempt to take down random protestors while obfuscating their quotes.
The many Zionist or Nazi quizzes around typically also don't try to skew the narrative by adding their own opinion on the answers. They take quotes and attribute them to those figures, at most giving context for when it was said.

Shapeshifting is a great way to put it. It reminds me of a similar idea I read—Woke rebranding of Israel as Zionazi. First they called Gaza an open air concentration camp, then they turned Star of David into a swastika, slogan by slogan they turned Jews into that which we hated most and what hated them most. The repetition and drumming in of genocide has been so effective, even reasonable non Jew hating people are swayed to change their opinion of israel and jews

Really a nonsense survey.... very distorted. What about legitimate activists? Decent Palestinians? Extremist Jews in Israel? This does not help the situation.
Legitimate activists would demand the return of the hostages and uphold Israel’s right to self-defense even while insisting on the “Palestinians” right to self-determination.
The author points out that not all activists are Nazis. Many probably don’t realize that they are in effect Nazis, because they are ignorant of the facts.
Admittedly there are more extremist Jews than decent “Palestinians”.

Israel really needs to "get tough" and wipe out the Iranian leaders and its puppet idiots like Hamas, etc. Then the US needs to find the anti-Jewish leaders and deport them to Palestine. But none of this won't happen because we are "too civilized". The Arabs will appreciate when Israel destroys Iran.

You cannot get "rid" of them, there are too many. You would have to blow up most of Iran, we will not do that.
The Islam radical is the cancer in the world
And the state Palestine is virtual and isn’t real and not concrete for the Arabs countries
Ok!! 👍🏻👍🏻
