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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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’m sure this is a very principled position and not just an opportunity to score points and sow division
The evil Ruski plot to get people to disagree about whether slaughtering children and raping hostages is bad.
There is no division to be sown here. If someone is on the evil side of this issue, that's entirely their own personal failing. And all major political parties of all major Western countries agree on being pro-genocide. So who do you think he's trying to sow division between?
Well see he's trying to help Trump win because as everyone knows the only reason anyone would care about Palestinian children is because they want to keep Harris from becoming president. There is literally no other reason to feel empathy for these children and their families that are being brutally murdered by the hundreds every single day.
Why is this relevant at all? Why do you guys got to make everything into mind reading psycho dramas instead of just observing geopolitics and alliances?
just reeks of kremlinology and radlib moralism mixed
With who? The democratically elected Western governments have come out entirely on Israel's side.
And I wouldn't make the 'principled' position argument if I were you; Western governments are literally on the side of a country that's just bombed a school (the fifth by now I think); although sadly given our country and NATO bomb infrastructure as a matter of course, perhaps Western governments do support the mass murder of global South civilians out of principle (they certainly defended it for the last 10 months).
And I'm going to be completely honest with you: I don't care what their principles are; if someone decides to seek profit and power by standing with the oppressed, more power to them; the planet certainly has leagues more of the people who'd stand with oppressors in the interest of profit, power and standing in firm alliance with fellow Western/white powers even when they're engaged in horrific crimes.
Sow division among who? Westoid Liberals who claim to support Palestine but are just chauvinist cowards?
Ukraine is ran by Nazis and so is Israel. Being against both is completely consistent
sure wish western leaders would "score points" by having non-genocidal positions, but alas
I actually agree with you that Putin doesnt actually care about Palestine, but this isnt about sowing division, its geopolitical chess. And Russia's geopolitical position makes him capable of taking the right position.
It's literally just a standard diplomatic statement, you don't need to roll it into your new russiagate
Палестина будет свободна
