Grade-A rage bait.
Its important to take a message you don’t agree with, reduce it to a charicature, and then evicerate that. You get that gooey sense of victory and you’ve terminated any discourse or thought.
Just putting this out here: You can be anti-zionist, pro Palestine, and not pro Hamas at the same time.
The boomer vibes are strong in this one.
zionist vibes. The whole argument is, that by supporting Palestine, you must support Hamas, because every last Palestinian is a murdering savage. Which is a Zionist talking point
The talking Point indeed.
But the rhetorical delivery of an oversimplified and on-purpose misunderstood non-solution seems pretty boomer to me.
Like a crudely drawn cartoon of a smuck father and his vegan daughter where he serves her just a plate of grass while he eats a steak. With a caption like “You said you would rather eat the livestock feed than turn it into meat.”
This is not what anyone meant; this is no solution whatsoever, and it’s just hostile and depicts the other side as stupid.
yeah true. zionist boomers, the worst kind of boomer
Now that’s some good quality ragebait. I give it a 9/10. Well done.
Oh, okay. By all means, keep starving children.
im sure they’ll stop starving children the same way they stopped bombing hospitals
You know, I was pro-palestine and didn’t want innocent people to die, but now that I am reminded that some of them would harm me
if i colonized them for 70+ years and forced my way into their homes and murdered them, now I’ve changed my ways. Free, free genocide, I guess?
shite Zionist propaganda
Is it propaganda? Didn’t this literally happen on October 7th at the Nova Music Festival?
No
I don’t think that crowd would have been particularly pro-palestine.
Two words which every internet-using person should know about because they tend to be forgotten: proportionality and sophistication.
Just because there is some element of crime within a specific group within a society, doesn’t mean that the solution is to completely exterminate the whole society.
This is what the word “extremism” means - if you’re an extremist you find extreme measures at least OK because you’ve stopped differentiating and thinking about proportions. And when doing extreme measures to a specific group of people (usually a minority group, or even a whole weaker country), then you’re right-wing extremist.
You wouldn’t want those things to be done to yourself when you’re part of a subgroup that’s under attack. You wouldn’t want to be a victim of extreme measures. That’s one reason why these extreme measures shouldn’t exist in the first place.
What does sophistication mean in this context?
Is it to do with creating a more reasonable solution ?
Genuinely asking
But I mean the whole thing is just so stupid. I get that some right wingers find contradiction in pride not being popularized in the middle east, but there are pretty obvious reasons for that. Also no one is so stupid as to go up to a terrorist like that. Not even “libtards”. Or whatever. The whole picture is just so stupid. Makes my head ache. So stupid.
Impossible to give the moral high ground to a state perpetrating literal genocide. Impossible to call them civilized even.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
