It feels like they don’t actually care about human rights and positive change, they just don’t like Trump.

I wish that to be he case, but considering his recent record, I highly doubt it.

I mean, Harris did speak out against Trump’s authoritarianism, but she and Biden also provided Israel with the money and weapons needed to wipe Gaza out from the map, and said she would continue to do so if elected. That’s the opposite of peace.

Israel was the aggressor by invading and subjugating Palestine for decades. Russia was the aggressor by invading Ukraine. Hamas and Ukraine have been fighting back against their oppressors. It’s not a strawman. Do you think that Ukraine never killed any Russian civilians?

How is it disinformation when it’s information that Israel openly admitted to?

You haven’t yet mentioned the massacres that Israel committed against Palestine log before 10/7. Why should the oppressed get more negative attention than the ones doing the oppression for far longer and far worse?

Russia is solely to blame for the war between it and Ukraine. Same with Israel.

Most of the deaths during 10/7 were by Israel. Hamas mostly just wanted hostages to trade for the thousands of Palestinian civilians that Israel kidnapped over the course of years, without trial.

Plus, isn’t IDF registration mandatory for Israelis? www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/7/...

Why did Israel deploy Hannibal Directive, allowing killing of own citizens?

A new report says Israel did enact directive, allowing for killings of captives taken by Hamas on October 7.

Leave it to a Zionist to make an argument based entirely on emotions rather than actual evidence. Like how Israel fired on their own people during 10/7 via the Hannibal Protocol. www.newarab.com/news/2023-de...

2023 is ’deadliest year’ for a child in occupied West Bank

Since 2000, Israeli forces have killed at least 2,287 Palestinian children, according to the Defence of Children International.

You’re seriously equating Israel bombing entire city blocks and breaking every crime in the Geneva Conventions with…Hamas using what little means they have to make weapons that can barely crack pavement.

That’s blatantly false; Israel killed and arrested hundreds of Palestinians in 2023 alone. www.newarab.com/news/2023-de...

Trans people in sports has no affect on women’s rights in sports. Trans women have to take HRT for long enough that little to no biological advantage exists before being allowed to officially compete. By denying them access, you’re effectively treating them as men.

1. Most of the people killed on 10/7 were done so by Israel firing on their own people via the Hannibal Directive.

2. Israel didn’t allow Palestine to have a military. What were they supposed to do, make rockets out of thin air?

Ukraine did bad stuff too. Do they share equal blame with Russia?

Zach G @meatwharf15.bsky.social · 2d

I’m not saying “but both sides”, I’m saying that this image frames Russia as the bad guy (rightly so) because it invaded Ukraine, but it doesn’t hold the same view for Israel despite it invading Palestine. Double standards.

Should Ukraine be freed from its armed forces, and Russia only have its leader removed? Do you think that is what would solve the conflict? Because if not, then why do you think it would go any different than between Israel and Palestine?

Zach G @meatwharf15.bsky.social · 3d

That is a very disingenuous image. Why should Palestine need to be freed from Hamas, the only group that is actively fighting for them? Why is Israel’s carnage focused solely on Netanyahu here, when it has been going for decades longer?

Image knows that Russia is responsible for war in Ukraine.

Dems will lose if Newsom is the nominee. Guy is pretty anti-trans and anti-homeless, which isn’t good if he’s in the party that at least pretends to care about minorities.

You would absolutely love the newest Indiana Jones game. Whole bunch of Nazis to fight, and the game goes somewhat deep into showing why the Nazis are bad, rather than having the player simply think “Nazi = bad”.

Ask yourself how much better those places would have been if the Democrats actually listened to their base for once and stopped actively funding a genocide.

Military troops patrolling the streets in the intro propaganda trailer, supposedly to protect civilians. But when that Termanid kills the announcer’s family moments later, there are no troops in sight. Almost as if protecting isn’t what they’re meant to do.

People like Dort unironically think that Super Earth from Helldivers is the ideal system to live under.

In the game’s intro propaganda trailer, you see the announcer wave hi to two SEAF soldiers, but a few moments later, a Termanid shows up and kills his family, with no SEAF in sight.

What’s wrong with the Chiefs? I’m not exactly a football fan, but my family is made up of die-hard Chiefs fans. Almost as much as hey are Royals fans.
