      It’s cool, I’m not your dad. I’m more speaking to the message than you, cause you’re just a name. I’m speaking to a bigoted, myopic message on a platform that I use. You can come or go.

        I’m also over hearing people make excuses for mass murderers. Hamas are the government of Gaza, after all, this logic isn’t applied to other governments vs their own people.

            I’m not the one getting self righteous about a country whose government has vowed to exterminate the Jewish state.

            Surely you’re aware of what “from the river to the sea” would entail?

              It would entail people of more than one religion living together and sharing a nation as equals. The horror!

                  From your source:

                  From the river to the sea is an aspirational call for freedom, human rights, and peaceful coexistence, not death, destruction, or hate

                  conflating anti-Israel sentiment with antisemitism “silence(s) diverse voices speaking up for human rights.

                  It’s certainly not as clear-cut as your first sentence, and I’ll remind you that the only agent currently committing genocide in this conflict is the IDF/Likud (who incidentally have used the same wording, in their 1977 manifesto: “Judea and Samaria will not be handed to any foreign administration; between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.”)

                  So no, I won’t be editing my comment, because I do not acknowledge your falsehood.

                I think we both know that’s not what they mean.

              Yeah, calling out someone for a 5 million person wide brush is not self righteous.

      Then shut the fuck up.

      No, seriously. If you’re not down to have your opinions challenged in this, the gentlest possible way, keep them to yourself.

        No, I don’t think I will. I don’t think I’m the only one here who needs their views questioned. How can you possibly justify executing hostages in cold blood?

          You are literally telling people not to question your views, because you’ll just ignore them.

          You don’t know what conversation you want to have.

            And you’re going to pretend you’re any better?

            Besides, as I’ve said previously, I don’t support either side in this conflict. Everyone is awful.

              ‘I’m not here to be told what to think, I’m here to tell others what to think!’

              ‘If so, fuck off.’

              ‘Et tu?’

              Incorrect.

                I’m not entirely sure what you’re on about, but I hope you feel better for saying it.
