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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

MODERATORS
This thread is an embarrassment, I can't believe there are people on Hexbear handwringing about violence against settler civilians. Did Native Americans never kill colonizer civilians? Are we going to start condemning the Haitian revolutionaries?
Israelis are constantly pretending they live in fear of being killed by Palestinian "terrorists". Have they considered fucking leaving, which is an option the Palestinians don't even have? No Israeli children would be in a position to be killed in the fighting or held hostage if their colonizer parents hadn't put them there. These children are victims, but they're victims of their colonizer parents and colonizer politicians.
You want to talk about children being held hostage to ensure compliance from adults? How many Palestinian children are there in the open air prison of Gaza, where 2/3 of the population are under 25 years old?
Agreed. However I think there are only a few apartheid apologists in this thread and the vast majority have the correct line on the struggle for Palestine liberation. They should be banned though
You're right, there are only a few. However, I'm surprised and disappointed that there are any at all.
Every new conflict and event in the real world will reveal another segment of chauvinism from westerners. It’s amazing we can spend 2 years beating liberals into the correct position on Ukraine and then another event sparks off and the libs are back on square one again. They learn nothing
The only thing that stops a fascist is a bullet
Good faith peaceniks shouldnt be banned, even if they are "wrong".
Those who wish to defend settlers against their rightful removal from their stolen land and the creation of a state that will right the wrongs inflicted upon the oppressed people of Palestinian are wrong and should be banned.
Are you conflating ghosts with what people are actually asserting? I haven't seen any posts implying that the resistance isn't righteous.
They don't condemn resistance, just the act of resisting
Ok
Good faith in serious doubt here
Idk about that. Like belief in the necessity of violent revolution is fundamental to being a leftist. Life, if we're gonna have a leftist unity site here, that's the biggest thing I'm agreeing with other tendencies about. Anyone not on board with that isn't my comrade
