Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I think it doesn’t help to turn the focal core of what you’re upset with to that, in this moment. Yeah, it sucks. But tell me why I should look a Palestinian 8-year old in the eye and tell them their parents deserved to be tortured and killed. A tiger is backed into a corner and stabbed repeatedly, and swipes out with its claws — if you’re unhappy with who it hits, let’s root for the tiger to liberate itself so there isn’t a need for any swiping. And let’s also be upset with the assholes who would put their children in the way of a cornered tiger as a means of controlling it
The Israelis could have fucked off back home any fucking time
This is a hilarious argument if you apply to other places.
"What were the children of American colonists meant to do? They've never lived anywhere else."
"What were the children of white South African colonists meant to do? They've never lived anywhere else."
"What were the children of Australian colonists meant to do? They've never lived anywhere else."
Find me the indigenous activists calling for the forced relocation of all white people back to Europe
The idea that dismantling systems of oppression means doesn't mean that white people will be forced back to Europe, what are you talking about?
You don’t know much about decolonization movements, do you?
GivingEuropeASpook is wrong about the Palestine stuff but they are actually right that indigenous decolonization movements do not generally call for the deportation of white people back to Europe so idk what you're on about here.
What the fuck? Israel is moving settlers from Israel and other parts of the world into the West Bank with the explicit purpose of genociding the Palestinian people. Israel goes into the West Bank, rips Palestinians out of their homes, demolishes them, and moves settlers into new buildings. This is happening in 2023.
No investigation, no right to speak.
Resist their government which continuously expands settlements into Palestinian territory and commits genocide.
What does that have to do with being forcibly relocated to countries that won't even take them? And what about the ones that dobresir their government? Should they be allowed to stay? Would some future Palestinian court be set up to determine that?
Israelis are like Canadians or Americans in terms of how they relate to global hierarchies and oppression. I would wager that's what most Hexbear users are as well.
Generally speaking, as far as I'm aware, most leftists advocate for a Truth and Reconciliation type situation in post-liberation Palestine yes.
The point is that this is all the fault of the Israeli government. What should the Palestinians do?
