    Dozens still arrested. The police liaison with the Punisher neck tattoo expressed support for Israel and declined to take further questions.

      Somebody mentioned “river”, somebody else mentioned “sea” and during various conversations the words “from”, “the” and “to” were used, so the protest was deemed to have included the words “from the river to the sea” and hence was deemed antisemitic.

          You are conflating multiple topics, tangling them, thus avoiding any semblance of nuance. My only question, are you self-aware enough do this in bad faith, or do you lack the ability to process the nuance altogether?

          That is my takeaway from tangled perspectives such as yours.

          There is a topic A, B, C, etc, but in your mind there is only one topic called ABCDEF…Z, and things are so tangled that you lost the ability to view each issue independently. It can be a convenient defense mechanism, if you tie enough topics together you can “mass decide” on them all at once, but that has the side affect of being indefensible when rational thinking is applied to each topic separately.

          This is why commenters like you can’t process someone supporting gay rights, yet also wanting Palestinians intolerant of homosexuality to remain safe and alive. In your mind the issues are permanently entangled, I should hate them for hating me. It is a faulty assumption that people want to kill those who disagree with them, someone can hate me and I’ll still fight for their right to live.

          I share this because if you are a good faith actor, then you’ll value this feedback and use it to apply nuance, strengthening your positions and rational defense of each. And if not, five minutes lost sharing some text with other strangers who may get something out of it. Nonetheless, wish you the best.

          Would it be cooler to go after Hamas without doing war crimes such as starving children to death, or do you just approve of war crimes when they’re against a race you dislike?

      Uh… Palestinians, including Gazans, and both men and women, are one of the most educated populations on Earth so I’m not sure what you’re talking about. If Hamas is preventing women from going to school it’s clearly not working.
