    That ain’t a leftist coming to the defense of Hamas. Just because you can’t understand in good faith what somebody is saying doesn’t mean you can make shit up.

      It’s literally lemmygrad. If a communist isn’t left wing, what is?

      I swear, leftists fuck around with gatekeeping way too much. Oh, the poster isn’t a real leftist because he said something you personally disagree with. Fuck off with that nonsense.

        I didn’t say they weren’t a leftist. I said what you interpreted from them was incorrect. Perhaps that’s my fault because what I said was a very intonation heavy sentence.

        So to rephrase:

        That ain’t a leftist that is coming to the defense of Hamas.

          Oh, thats makes more sense. Let me respond to the rephrase.

          Its saying that Israel should stop fighting so there will be peace. Its a lie, or ignorant at best. Israel will cease to exist if they stop.

            Ignorant, not a lie. If Isreal stops fighting, there will still be decades of terrorism from both sides due to the deep bloodshed and hatred that both sides have been feeding.

            But there will ultimately be less bloodshed if Isreal was to stop. Every apartment building they bomb to kill a handful of terrorists is just going to create dozens more than there was originally. Intentionally fucking over the infrastructure/food/water is just making people violent and desperate.

            Isreal absolutely has the power to make things better, and that first step is a cease fire and a return of the original aid that Palestinians were recieving.

            But thats not very quipy as is needed for a meme, hence why that poster didn’t add that nuance if they understood it.

            Israel will cease to exist if they stop.

            Get real. Isreal has for decasdes and will continue for decades to have multi-billion dollar, multinational support, with modern weaponry and defense systems.

            Bombing children isn’t helping Isreal stay afloat. Civilians aren’t a threat to Isreal, there is no need to kill them.

              That support only functions with fighting. And since Hamas uses civilians as human shields, people are going to get hurt. It’s not like we have thousands of Seal Team 6s running around.

              Hell, Hamas has promised to commit Oct 7th over and over again. Even if somehow Israel doesn’t hit another human shield, Hamas will still bomb children because it makes Israel look bad. Look at what happened with the hospital, so many leftists fell for Hamas propaganda.

                Bad people do bad things isn’t reason to bomb civilians.

                It’s not like we have thousands of Seal Team 6s running around

                Then maybe Isreal should work on that instead of bombing civilians.

                Look at what happened with the hospital, so many leftists fell for Hamas propaganda.

                I don’t think it’s possible for me to match such a grossly misleading statement. But then again I’m not in the business of misrepresenting others.
