Why don’t people understand that an analogy DOES NOT equal a comparison... Every time I use an analogy and someone says “did you really just compare x to y?” I want to drive my car into a wall at 216mph
Hot garbage. Anyone with the mentality “No conversations. Never communicate or empathize” is the worst type of person, even when you’re on the current right side of history
Taking racist and disproven talking points, swapping the races, and throwing this dogshit out there is just...
This is literal race realism are you brain dead.?
@DickSprints I think the who and why are both important for anyone privileged enough to be outside the war and have time. Most reasons to point it out without also defending Palestine atm are bad tho that’s true you right
@DickSprints Unless you’re like just talking about people who weaponize it and try to paint all Palestinians as bad. Or are just plain pro-Israel. Then nvm keep spittin king
@DickSprints With my stance being that the Israeli govt is evil, I also just understand that Hamas is a terrorist group. As long as no ones trying to deflect or throw off the convo to blame Palestinians, I think it’s just being accurate
Def true it’s immaterial. And no one should be forcing Palestinian supporters to condemn anything with what they’re going through.
You’re also morally bankrupt if you’re explicitly cheering on Hamas with “Hamas big W lol!”
One thing I think we western leftists need to remember is that our opinion on something like Hamas is absolutely immaterial. No one in Gaza is gonna see your Twitter condemnation of Hamas and decide to change strategy. It is entirely moral posturing for domestic consumption.
As a Jewish person, I wish I could spend this week grieving and mourning. But the Israeli government is weaponizing our grief to enact a second Nakba, killing thousands and displacing millions. I can make time to grieve while also working to stop ethnic cleansing.
