Sowing confusion to deflect blame is Tel Aviv's usual propaganda strategy.

Advocating for the slaughtering of innocent civilians is disgusting.

[-] masquenox@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Israel has been doing tons of that since 1949 - where were you and the rest of the pearl-clutchers all this time?

I don’t see here where anyone is trying to justify Israel. They’re wrong. So are Hamas. It’s that simple.

Here... you dropped some of your pro-Israel "both-side-ism" tropes - let me point it out for you.

Advocating for the slaughtering of innocent civilians is disgusting.

Not advocating for the slaughtering of innocent civilians, because I'm not a monster.

[-] masquenox@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

And offering nothing but slap-on-the-wrist apologetics for Israel's decades-old genocide while demonising Palestinians when they fight back makes you (somehow) less of a monster?

This you?

Not advocating for the slaughtering of innocent civilians

[-] null@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Sure is, good job!

What about it?

[-] masquenox@lemmy.ml -2 points 2 years ago

So you admit to glossing over Israel's decades-long genocide?

That's remarkably honest for a liberal.

[-] null@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago

Nope, I admit to saying that advocating for the slaughtering of innocent civilians is disgusting.

If you think those 2 things are the same, then you might have brain damage.

Riiiight... those of us who know better calling attention to the fact that you libs only began worrying about the "slaughtering of innocent civilians" as soon as Israel was handed a miniscule taste of it's own medicine are doing so because... "brain damage".

Riiiight.

Here. This wasn't written for you - it was written to satirize you.

It's funny, because you have to invent those things about me, while I can link to where you actively advocated for the slaughtering of innocent civilians.

I guess that's the best someone with your level of brain damage can do, though. So sad.

[-] masquenox@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

It’s funny,

No, there's nothing funny about people minimising Israel's 80-year genocide because "Hamas bad".

And you can't even claim "brain damage" as an excuse.

[-] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml -2 points 2 years ago

I don't support Israel though?

[-] null@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 years ago

Did you reply to the wrong person?

[-] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml -3 points 2 years ago

When you are trying to accuse someone of supporting the slaughtering civilians, and they aren't supporting Israel in this particular conflict, then by definition they aren't supporting the slaughtering of innocent civilians.

On the other hand, if you are criticizing Hamas for attacking valid Israeli targets in their fight for freedom, you are implicitly supporting the slaughter of civilians. i.e. you support the fact that Israel regularly bombs hospitals and evacuation routes.
