A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world

1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

gaza is the location, hamas are the terrorists that govern it
"terrorist" is loaded language.
Is Israel doing terrible things and committing war crimes that border on genocide? Yes. Is Hamas a terrorist group? Yes
Edit: can’t believe I didn’t recognize the account. It’s a troll. They comment stupid stuff all over. Check the comment history if you don’t believe me
Jeez, 1.24k comments in 3 months. I get what people mean when they tell someone to "touch grass"
To be fair… that’s about what I have too lol, in only a slightly longer timeframe. But at least mine aren’t just for the sake of amassing downvotes
Least terminally online Twitter leftist
Thank goodness for the user notes feature in Connect for Android.
Regardless of their post history, they're not wrong here. One man's freedom fighter is another's terrorist.
Edit: I thought this article was fascinating about that quote and why I agree with the claimed troll here https://www.cbc.ca/news2/indepth/words/terrorists.html
Right, freedom fighters commit mass slaughter of civilians. /s
Used to happen all the time between indigenous people and colonizers/settlers in North America
calling them terrorist just means you don't like their politics
Nah, that means they're using terror as their politics. Republicans in the US are fucking idiots and no one sane likes their politics, yet I don't see people calling them terrorists.
No, Hamas is a fucking terrorist group that hasn’t allowed an election since they staged a coup in 2007. They kill civilians and use civilian infrastructure as military strongpoints.
hell, when it comes to hamas, "govern" is an opinion too
“rule” might be the right verb here
