      lmao

      I’m anti-Israel, but I doubt you care. Throw enough bullshit and some of it will stick, right?

        “I’m anti-Israel, but I like to regurgitate literal IDF propaganda talking points to deflect from an ongoing genocide”. Nice 👍

          I didn’t realize that all those dead civilians on October 7th were IDF propaganda. Wow. Really convincing crisis actors they got.

            Except nobody is denying the tragedy of October 7th. You’re literally creating a straw man argument to ignore US unconditional support for an apartheid regime responsible for killing 15,000 children. Disgusting.

              Except nobody is denying the tragedy of October 7th.

              What would you say if someone called October 7th a targeted and precise military operation and that 2 civilians killed for each Israeli soldier killed was actually a great ratio?

              Because I can cite the very person I’m lambasting here saying that. I have receipts, if you’re genuinely interested enough for me to go back through my comments and grab them.

              You’re literally creating a straw man argument to ignore US unconditional support for an apartheid regime responsible for killing 15,000 children. Disgusting.

              Fuck man, I have called for the removal of all aid from Israel. I’ve been calling for that since BEFORE October 7th, even, because I recognized a genocide when I see one. I’ve called our support for Israel a stain on our (US) collective soul. I’ve called the Israeli ethnostate an apartheid regime.

              How the fuck is calling someone out for Hamas apologia, in that context, creating a strawman OR ignoring US unconditional support? The very fucking meme I posted and whose comment thread you are commenting in suggests the ongoing offensive as part of a genocide.

              How much more obvious do I have to make it?

          Your meme indicates otherwise.

          Ah, so the CCP is the true leftist organization, since that’s the only clearly identified ‘left’ object in the meme other than the tankie themself. Critical support for autocracy, anti-democracy, genocide, and capitalist billionaires with Chinese characteristics!

          EDIT: I responded in my inbox, I thought this was a response to the “There are plenty of people left of me” comment I made.

          The meme indicates that Israel is committing genocide, so I’m not really sure how the fuck you find it pro-Israel.

              No. It really doesn’t. It says tankies can see one genocide and not another. You can try to bootlick your way out of that all you want, but I can quote myself on Lemmy calling the current Palestinian situation genocide many, many times.

                  Meme police here, who called for assistance?!*

                  We have had reports of emotional damage against a soft, sad tankie.

                  According to your meme, you’re a tankie, then.

                  It’s not often I find an actual problem with someone’s basic logic.

                  Do you have trouble with those “All pugs are dogs, but not all dogs are pugs” style statements they quiz first-graders on?
