It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Telling me someone is disliked by the Israeli government doesn't make me like them less.
And Hamas is not a problem. They are a response to a problem.
Uhhh, Hamas is a bunch of militant terrorists. Neither IDF nor Hamas can argue they are the “good” side. Neither side has the moral high ground. Hamas was funded by Netanyahu because he didn’t want PLO to govern a united Palestine…. Simplified obviously but more or less I believe. But in no way is Israel somehow the good guys here.
I dunno, I feel like the side trying to prevent them and theirs from being ethnically cleansed has better moral footing then the side doing the ethnic cleansing
Just a thought
Neither side has the moral high ground, they're both using violence! (don't ask how the IOF responds to nonviolent protests)
"Terrorism" is a word used by liberals when brown people use violence. The IDF and American military both fit any definition of "terrorist" that you would apply to Hamas. It's all a matter of whether the group looks organized and presentable to you. Leave the scare words at home.
You've been told this over and over and you are for some reason just ignoring this: Netanyahu is not the source of evil in Israel. Blaming Netanyahu for Hamas and the modern criminal ethno-state he runs is like blaming George W. Bush for all of America's crimes in the middle east from the 1940s to the Iraq War. What the hell do you think the rest of the country was doing the whole time?
Uhh guys the native population is fighting colonialism and genocide with armed resistance, clearly this is evil terrorism (despite Palestinian armed resistance being permitted under international law, and the fact that Hamas is the govt. in Gaza). Where is the Palestinian Gandhi?
Genocide Resistance
