MODERATORS
Just took a look at the reddit comments on a similar piece of news. It's a cesspool of just-created accounts up voting each other on pro-Israel comments.
It's a pity some influentiable people won't be able to immediately notice that they are bots.
That's not true at all. I never got in trouble on reddit until I started arguing with hamas supporters. Those bans came fast.
"Hamas supporters"
Right, right... I guess Israel just couldn't outspend Hamas on reddit with all their hundreds of billions in US handout-money, eh?
do you mean people critical of the israeli government and the way that the idf are conducting the war? is everyone who disagrees with you hamas?
People or bots supporting hamas is hamas enough. From the river to the sea. You can play nuance armchair quarterback if you want. I don't.
The Palestinian people deserve to be free from their oppressors. Calling for an end to the insane actions by Israel is not pro Hamas, it's just pro-human decency.
And anyone saying anything else is supportive of and complicit in genocide and war crimes. Fuck Zionists.
Yep r/worldnews went from condemning Russia for their war crimes on Ukraine to damn near universally praising and supporting Israel's war crimes on Palestine.
Sadly, I don't think it's all bots and propagandists. A lot of them are real people that really do have that level of cognitive dissonance.
You don't need that many bots and propagandists when liberals are so ready to fall in line.
Ukraine didn't attack Russia first with rapist maniacs. If it did I think you'd find more people would turn a blind eye to Russian atrocities too.
"They committed war crimes first, so we can commit war crimes back!"
That's the argument you're using.
To me this is the issue. An elected government attacked its neighbour. Sure they (hamas) used shit soldiers with no plan other than to draw their enemy into a media war and the cost of their citizens and children. But they none the less attacked.
If the tow arms are separate then they should have cooperated with returning hostages.
How nice of you to forget the other 70 years of Israel killing Palestinians.
Both sides have been killing each other for those 70 years. Before that it was just the Jews getting killed which apparently is ok with you
Before that the Zionists, not the "normal" Jews, where doing terrorist attacks on Palestine. Just like they do now. This shit comes from XIX century. And Zionists have always have the same relation with Judaism like AlQaeda with Muslims.
Your comment made me finally go there and check. Wow, the comments here and there are night and day. The most common comment on similar threads is "Norway, Spain and Ireland are showing the world that terrorism works".
If terrorism didn't work, the CIA wouldn't do so much of it.
Reddit has been taken over by US-government bots.
You could have stopped at "cesspool".
