    What gets me is people who throw a fit when you point Hamas isn’t exactly awesome, even if they are fighting for very justified reasons

      They are literally fighting for the extermination of the Jewish state and aim to eradicate the Jewish population from the region.

      The Islamic colonial powers have a long history of persecuting the Jewish population in the region which was (and should Hamas be successful, again will be) every bit as despicable as what Israel are doing to the Palestinians now.

      In this conflict, the only possible justice is for both sides to lose and a two state solution be implemented.

      as far as i can tell, from the history i’ve seen, neither side is particularly justified IMO. Including the lengthy history of documented treaty negotiations as well.

          yeah. There is ultimately no good outcome to this situation. Even with a one or two state party, it’s just not going to be nice.

        “The people committing the genocide aren’t justified, but neither are the people being genocided!”

        You’re the kind of scumbag the meme is about.

          i don’t see the problem with that statement, it’s perfectly accurate as far as i can tell.

          Obviously genocide is bad, i don’t feel like i have to expand on that aspect of it. But i also feel like it’s worth pointing out that they kinda fucking asked for it.

              why would this make me a fascist, and for what reason should i kill myself?

              When you’re a country at war, over disputes of territory, which goes back to biblical roots, there is a point where genocide probably starts to look normative. Or at the very least, completes the CBA. Plus we’re also talking about guerilla warfare here, notable for the fact that it has incredibly high civilian death rates.

                  i literally have not for one second advocated for genocide.

                  You on the other hand are getting amusingly close to death threats, which is rather funny.

                  Does it make me a genocide supporting fascist if i believe that ukraine should be an independent country from russia, even if that means russia losing hundreds of thousands of it’s people, due to it’s war strategy?

                  I don’t know what you think i’m going to get from you telling me to kill myself. You could literally doxx me and i’d care equally as little. I might commend you for putting in some effort. But that’s about it. Try harder or don’t respond.

                    Believe me, if I could kill you, I would, and nobody could say it wasn’t justified: we learned in WW2 that killing Nazis is a good thing.
