[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
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]
I'll retype it idk what happened
Victor is this true?
All the Palestinian prisoners being held by Israel are hostages
Almost all of the hostages held by hamas are pows because they served in military at some point
All of the gazans dead are civilians because there is no hamas army
All of the israeli dead are military because all Israelis besides those who have an exemption are military
Any hostages left are military or Israel killed them
Hamas di
Which part(s) do you disagree with
I'm pretty sure you've made every statement i wrote there
I can go one by one if you would like
New York City Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday authorities have identified “outside agitators” causing problems at the mostly peaceful student protests at Columbia, NYU and other schools in the city.
“We can’t have outside agitators come in and be disruptive,” the mayor said at a news conference Tuesday.
“We need to address this while it’s a spark. Let’s not wait until it’s a blaze,” Adams said. The mayor's administration will be meeting with the heads of universities Tuesday to go over best practices for how they can keep students protesting peacefully.
A key part of that, he said, is keeping protesters who are not students off the campus. That may mean sharing intel by identifying some known protesters to the universities.
The fact that the tents at all of the schools were the same exact tent tells you that people outside the campuses are organizing these
I did. You falsely accused zionists of something, and then when called out on it, discussed the validity of the signs.
Again, feel free to apologize for lying.
I said I agreed. .
Hamas can’t locate 40 hostages for a deal. You say it’s because Israel killed them all.
Show me proof that Israel killed (# of total hostages - 39).
how do you think they died? and show me proof lol.
its overwhelmingly likely that the side dropping bombs and executing hostages killed the others.
Maybe if i said the word Jew instead of Israeli he wouldn't have said no not really.
Shrug

Agree or disagree
Oh you like the word most you don't say all so you can have an out
I get it now
Except that I'm sure you think all of the Palestinian prisoners should be released
And that all Israelis like genocide
And that All detergent is better than Tide

You agree on what?? That you lied??
I don’t need to speculate as to how they died.
Hamas kidnapped them, and now can’t account for them. The burden isn’t on anyone else.
You’re the one making statements on why the hostages can’t be “located,” maybe back it up with actual facts.

not all Israelis like genocide lol. some are anti-Zionist. I think like 10% didnt agree with the mass murder.

ofc I didnt lie.
Hamas has said the hostages died by bombing. Israel has admitted to executing 3 of them. the releasted hostages said they were terrified of the bombing.

You didn’t lie when you said zionists are the ones holding up signs that said “by any means necessary??”
Yes, Israel said they accidentally killed three of them. Now let’s discuss the other 100+ Hamas can’t account for.
Also not 100% sure why you say lol when you make these ridiculous statements, but FYI it's probably a tell

ofc thats not a lie
Israel killed most them with bombs imo according to what has been reported
happy now?
Then how did pacification happen with Japan and Germany?
Looks to me like if you actually annihilate, and prove you can annihilate, and disintegrate inimical government, and military occupy the ruins until they rebuild a totally different country, you can pacify
I'm no WWII expert at all. My expertise is in post-WWII ME and counterinsurgency but I'd assume the overwhelming allied forces destroying more people and property than what Israel is doing was a driving force.
You're talking about bringing the enemy to heel via hundreds of thousands of deaths (maybe a million), engaging for more with Hezbollah and Iran militarily, a total destruction to more than just Gaza, plus a rebuild effort.
being mistaken is not the same as lying.
and even then, I was only mistaken about a specific thing and not the substance of the idea.
Reported on Palestinian X accounts obviously
