Genuine question… What’s up with Hamas? Like when people say Hamas has to be destroyed… What’s wrong with that?
I don’t think Israel should be killing Palestinians, but I can’t really get behind Hamas either.
Not trying to start a fire or anything. Genuinely just curious.
Thank goodness this community won’t be exposed to anything outside of its echo chamber.
Dude I’ve seen it. The holocaust was also the CIA, right? And every other atrocity on the other side of the Atlantic. Right?
Here’s the thing… I can automatically discredit everything you say because the stance you’re taking. If you’re going to simp for something, it’s impossible to have a rational discussion.
You love China. I hate the US. I just hate China even more.
It looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, quacks like a duck… Well it might be a duck.
I understand definitions are incredibly important for both US and China. According to US and Taiwan, it’s a sovereign country. According to China and UN, it’s part of China. I would be willing to concede at “It’s complicated.”

I think the Taiwan Strait is further evidence of the “It’s complicated” argument.
I gotta say I laughed at a lot of responses. But this was my favorite.
I’m aware the US isn’t a bright, beaming light of righteousness and good-doing. It’s a corrupt and evil fuck fest. But it’s a billion times better than China.
Now THAT’S a lot of copium. There were tanks there. Why bring tanks to peaceful protest?
Lots of assumptions in that comment.
Fair point. US has definitely killed more non-US citizens than China has killed non-China citizens. I can’t honestly pretend the US foreign policy is righteous or even sustainable.
Copium. They sent literal tanks. Why? Why do you need tanks to handle a peaceful protest?
Deprogram me. Let’s see it.
Just remember I’m also being “deprogrammed” by the flat earth and anti-vaccine movements as well.
US definitely has a prison problem. Definitely not acting like it’s perfect.
But that makes China okay how? Do you even believe the numbers they spread? Covid is a great example of how reliable Chinese figures are.
At least I don’t have a government score rating my contributions to a central power. China is a dystopia.
The point I’m making is that they’re independent territories not owned by China. China continues to censor and murder in attempts to gain more territory. Taiwan is still a sovereign country. Claiming it’s not is just factually wrong.
I think this is the best explanation. I guess it’s a hard situation. With Israel currently in power, it feels like there’s only two options. Either Israel fucks off or Palestine does. I feel like they’ve made it clear that they’re not particularly interested in coexisting.
Israel claims that it was originally their land thousands of years ago. Palestine claims… Pretty much the same thing. I don’t feel like either one could be in power without oppressing the other… What options are the public eye not seeing?
I definitely am not claiming that genocide or mass exodus is my recommendation. It’s not like my opinion will affect much, anyways. It just feels like a rock and a hard place.
