It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

There's some fair clause that it is a genocide, though if it is, it goes both ways. That and most of the conditions that Palestine and Gaza put themselves in are from their own mistakes and faults in the past,

genocide, though if it is, goes both ways.

You cast doubt on it being a genocide and claim that it's the citizens of Palestine's fault for being genocided in the screenshot you're using to defend yourself.

Also,

Attacking their neighbouring countries and Europe.

When has any Palestinian group attacked Europe?

I don't think saying some fair clause is doubt that it is indeed genocide. I've made multiple comments already claiming that it is indeed a genocide. I mean, come on, separating people by their creed? That's genocide.

I don't blame the citizens either, they need safety and prosperity, and it is never their fault for what violent men do. However, terrorists have made peace treaties, especially that of the Oslo Accords, rather difficult for both sides to maintain peace. Terrorist attacks, Israel responds with more violence, terrorists respond with even more violence, and so on and so forth. It's awful.

When has any Palestinian group attacked Europe?

Quite a few times, unfortunately.

Roald Dahl famously said:

"There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity, maybe it’s a kind of lack of generosity towards non-Jews. I mean, there’s always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere."

You would agree that this is an antisemitic statement, yes? That it puts blame on Jews for their own genocide?

How is this statement:

That and most of the conditions that Palestine and Gaza put themselves in are from their own mistakes and faults in the past

Not of a similar character?
