Except one side here is committing the genocide, Hamas is not restricting food, water, and medicine into Israel, Hamas is not targeting Israeli hospitals, Hamas didn’t kill hundreds of Israeli children yesterday.

It’s gross to refer to Palestine’s response to getting rounded into a concentration camp and subject to inhuman conditions as if they were doing the same thing to people living in Israel.

we must acknowledge Hamas role.

Hamas role? They tried to be peaceful during the march of return, they got gassed and shot with snipers.

The only role any Palestinian group can play that won’t have Israel making those same criticisms is to stand in a field and commit seppuku.

You criticize Hamas for not using uniforms, while Israel arms civilians and helps them build homes on stolen land between Gaza and their own military bases, you criticize Hamas for fighting near civilians, while the IDF’s HQ is literally next to a shopping mall.

The two aren’t even comparable, because Palestine doesn’t have the benefit of billions of dollars of military equipment and the ability to have a standing army without getting bombed necessary to fight a non-guerilla war, meanwhile Israel chooses to do these things.

There is one single party responsible for starting this conflict, who can end it at any time, that’s Israel.

Israel is fighting to eradicate the entire Palestinian people, Hamas is fighting to protect the entire Palestinian people, and even groups whose members Hamas murdered to obtain power are supporting them at this point in time. When you adopt the zionist framing that Israel is justified in fighting Hamas because they’re just so evil, you are carrying water for Israel.

If you’re old enough to remember Iraq, they did the same shit; the right wanted to murder as many Muslims as possible, the tepid liberals tried to say they only opposed Saddam and the Baathists and terrorists as if the two positions weren’t equivalent in practice.

They’d take the service tunnel.

no-one commenting was able to take that statement at face value

People can smell the tepid liberalism and pretty reliably guess what else you believe because they’ve seen it before. The modlog indicates they were right. You are exactly the person they’re talking about when they mock someone bothsidesing genocide.

When someone does “both sides” to a group committing genocide and their victims, they are supporting genocide.

If you’re being stabbed and I go “Yes, stabbing random people is bad, but you’re ruining his jacket by bleeding on it, so really you’re both bad people”, that criticism is supporting the guy who is currently stabbing you.

Driving 3 million people into a concentration camp and restricting food, water, and medicine is with the intention to ethnically cleanse them is bad, but have you considered that using violence to escape that concentration camp is also bad?

Are they going to bike through the chunnel? If not, why?

Communism isn’t when everyone lives like a farmer from 200 BC.

If he was sent by god, it’s not for the reason they think.

Wait billionaires? I’ve been using Saddam Hussein all this time.

Unironically though, you can see the same pattern going all the way back to Rome.[Michal Parenti’s The Assassination of Julius Caesar]

Something about the history of all hitherto existing society being the history of class struggles.

The Khmer Rouge was never socialist, they were some weird feudal ideology, hence why the CIA supported them and the US recognized them as the legitimate government of Cambodia for like 30 years after Vietnam liberated them and put an actual socialist government in power.

Russia hasn’t been socialist since 1992; Putin’s Russia is what happens when you overthrow a democratic state run by the workers for the workers with a vibrant, multiparty capitalist “democracy”.

“Socialism with Chinese characteristics” is more democratic than the US; the average Chinese person feels they have far greater influence on the government than the average American. They tend to be confused why Americans hate and fear the police and why we aren’t able to vote for politicians who will fix the problem.

There’s also Cuba, who had a referendum on a new constitution a few years ago. After years of debate at the community level, they came up with a final draft that 92% of Cubans voted yes on. Could you imagine if we had that level of influence over our own government?

See the thing you’re missing is that the communist parties of these countries themselves democratic; they’re typically structured such that every member above the rank-and-file is elected, with instant recall and “give us a better candidate” options.

Yes.

Yup. It’s actually crazy how anticommunist propaganda creates so many people who are so confidently wrong about things that are so easy to investigate.

It’s called LTSC IoT, but it’s normal windows. Actually much better because it doesn’t automatically install so much bloat.

The guy you’re responding to is a liberal doing a piss poor parody of a ML.

You can’t do a good parody if you get angry before the punchline, or don’t understand the thing you’re parodying in the first place.

Lemmitors downvoting you because actually learning about the case conflicts with their “cHiNa BaD” circlejerk.

It is an observation of historical facts, I am not prescribing any particular action.

Running in the woods and trying to wage a protracted people’s war against the local police didn’t put the nazis in their place either, so who exactly would I be calling to arms?
