      I feel like 99% of the people here on Lemmy, including me, are heavily against Israel and their ongoing genocide, which I feel I made pretty clear above that I was at least.

      You’re also putting words in my mouth by saying “I really hope that these countries are never subjected to public shame.” (making it sound like I protect Israel as a country, something I did the opposite of in my comment), when I fully agree that shaming the COUNTRY Israel would not only be OK, but something I highly encourage. I stand fully behind shaming, blaming, and punishing Israel as a country for their genocidal actions, but the Israeli population at large should not have to take the blame for what their government does.

      And coming back to my first point of the majority of Lemmy being against the Israeli genocide: you’re still managing to get out-ratio’ed in the comments, which should kind of be a wake up call for you to at least try to re-evaluate you thoughts on the matter, or at the very least come up with some constructive reasoning as to why it would be OK to shame an entire population based on the actions of their government. Perhaps you’re able to sway me into understanding your point? Or maybe the best you’ve got is some LMAO-comeback?

        Haha I never put words in your mouth. I directly quoted you. You did that to yourself.

        And what is it that I need to rethink? That genocide is bad? Y’all can “ratio” me all you want, but I will never go back on my stance that genocide is wrong and that Israel is committing war crimes and atrocities against innocent civilians.

        I’m not going to try and convince you of anything, because we clearly live in different realities. You think that it’s a “hate crime” and that I’m a “Nazi” because I don’t feel bad about people shaming Israel. There is no getting through to someone that reacts in such a manner.

          I say Israel is committing genocide and should be shamed for it.

          You say Israel is committing genocide and therefore every single Israeli should be shamed for it.

          Not every single Israeli is committing genocide or stand behind it, therefore I do not believe the ones who don’t should be shamed for it. The same way not every American vote trump, and therefore I believe not every American should be shamed for what he stands for.

          There, with less text, maybe you can understand what is being said? Because you seem to keep trying to change the narrative to fit the enemy you think you’re fighting. But if you’re still adamant about wanting to blame an entire population for what their government does, then I will just stop right here because you’re simply a degenerate and lost case.
