    I think my favorite is them calling everyone Antifa … that means “Antifacist” … cons get mad about Antifa because they are Fascists.

      Funny. I was called a Zionist on Lemmy because I said the kids at the festival shouldn’t have had to die.

        I think most people can acknowledge that Oct 7 was bad, and also recognize the apartheid and genocide of Palestinians is bad.

        I mean, some people are overzealous, but maybe there’s more context too?

        Fundamentally, yeah, civilians getting caught in a conflict sucks.

        It’s just that this one attack is used as justification for the vindictive massacres since, which is both wildly out of proportion and extremely unfair to the civilians not involved in the attack who, even in the most charitable reading, get killed for other people’s sins, and in a less charitable one, get killed for other people’s genocidal conviction of supremacy.

            I wonder if kids in the concentration camp could hear the festival outside the prison they were born into. I wonder how many could hear or see life outside their prison as their family died from starvation, bombings, or other crimes against humanity. Of course most of them are dead now.

            It isn’t wrong when someone plays a wrong note when learning how to play the piano. It isn’t wrong when a bullied kid punches back. It wasn’t wrong when a Jew beat a former camp guard to death when walking out of a liberated Nazi concentration camp. It wasn’t wrong when Hamas killed children in the attack on the festival when resisting genocide.

            It’s a bad thing that the children at that festival died. In a better world Hamas wouldn’t have killed them when doing the attack, and in a better world still Hamas wouldn’t have cause for the attack. But Hamas was right for trying to resist genocide even when their judgment was poor enough that they killed kids when doing so.

        Those kids were celebrating and dancing near starving children, they were celebrating death. It was their own hubris that killed them and the arrogance of a military too incompetent to listen to their own reports. If Gaza had settlements they would be literally dancing surrounded by starving children and it would have been just as justified.

    You don’t have to build the concentration camp if you just bomb the kids.
