[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD

2+2 Rules

Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...


These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.

To reiterate some of the points:

1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.

2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.

3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.

4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.

5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.

If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.

Please be aware this thread is strictly moderated[/quote]

How are these pro Hamas supporters allowed to block streets and highways in the US? At least in Florida the cops physically removed them. I'm surprised a car hasn't smashed into them yet. Do these idiots really think this is gonna help gain them support?


Bc law enforcement does nothing??

It’s just a matter of time until people take matters in their own hands.

You called it a Holocaust broseph. I disagree.

A lie, but I guess that's par for the course now.

I def support them now that I know it pisses you off

I'm saying in 2100, nobody is going to cry Nakba for all the Ukranians who were turned into refugees. Because all that is is a strategy (carefully crafted for years now). You're part of a playbook you don't know you're a part of.

I have zero clue why you're using "Nabka" incessantly now other than deliberate obfuscation and deflection. Russia has indisputably been engaging in a long-running campaign of ethnic cleansing and the West has rallied in defense of displaced Ukrainians. But as always, the Russia/Ukraine thread is down the hall. Are you lost?

lol, like genocide/jew-hater vic needs a reason to support Hamas.


This week in jihad


Good news, tho, the MAGA-strain of jihadi hasn't cut any heads off lately.

Bad news, it's just a matter of time with all these protests and as we approach the election and beyond.

Make a friend of it

You can support Palestine right to exist without supporting Hamas

Vic- Hamas is bad. Like really bad. Putin is bad too.

Jabotinsky and Ben-Gurion weren't all of the Yeshuv. The Yeshuv are not really a thing that could be said to have goals. Maybe you should not use words you don't understand.

Like any body, we can make generalities about the weight of opinion. Most people wanted a majority-Jewish state. That's what they were there for.

Last time we discussed this I understood the definition of Yeshuv better than you did. You said the term only applied to what's better termed the Old Yeshuv.


I’m still shocked people don’t say that IDF fought and routed the British who were protecting the Palestinians

Well, it seems to me like a white person using Black slang and using it derisively. Like it sounds antisemitic. Sounds like you're saying Juden, which is of course just a word that means Jews.

from what I read, the British govt and most of the officer class supported the Israeli brigades. however some of the officers and men fought alongside the Palestinians.

I dont think Hamas or its supporters were shutting down traffic in SF today guys. you can chill now.

No lol read the Wikipedia article. A paramilitary campaign. That means guerilla warfare or what the IDF calls, “terrorism”


Hamas is exploiting the people similarly to how the IDF is. Notice how they both use the same slogans and same arguments?


Can someone tell me who the Ben Gurion airport is named after?






Just to be clear I would’ve done the same thing if I were them

They literally are hamas supporters.

Lying is like breathing to you.


thats not how lying works

I truly dont think it was Hamas supporters. I dont know for sure. I havent looked it up. theres a chance I guess.

why dont you post a link and prove my instincts wrong?


hmm nothing about Hamas on first glance. weird. who would have guessed.



A causal internet search didn’t brand them as hamas supporters.

You keep making such great points captain genocide…

can you point me to where they are shown to be Hamas supporters?

otherwise, well I think we know who the liar here is.

Everyone knows you’re a pathological liar.

We know you don't agree, but being pro ceasefire (before hamas releases all hostages) is being pro hamas. Calling what's happening a genocide, is being pro hamas. Being like you, is being pro hamas.

There is no "pro palestine" "anti hamas" movement that i know of. If you know any, please link. People saying hamas are murderous terrorists that all deserve to be assassinated, the main source of all problems in the strip, the cause of Israel invasion, but "pro palestine".
