You think I'm gloating?

Yes.

You think .world is full of people that support what's happening in Palestine?

I think they have a higher percentage than any other instance.

That's pretty far from reality as I'm experiencing it.

If you don't speak out against genocide, you don't see how genocide supporters react to it.

What do you think I'm gloating about?

I don't support genocide other than in that arbitrary way we all do by purchasing goods and services sourced from a global economy.

You seem to be seeing things very black and white when it comes to people. In this case, as regards to people that use .world.

You do realize that black and white thinking is probably the biggest factor that leads to genocide?

This is true for the people that actually perform the genocide and support it. I.E. powerful people manipulate media and propagandize everyday folks until they hate that other group of people and want them dead and then go out and kill their fellow man over that difference.

Like, I can draw a direct line between your behaviour and the behaviour of those on the far right. You're making an entire group "The Other.

We all know where that leads when we let the powerful program our thinking.

Straight up, what you're saying here makes you sound like either a troll or a propagandized true believer.

I'm not trying to be insulting but I am being blunt. You should really think about where you're getting your facts and opinions.

I'm straight up telling you that something you're consuming is lying to you and warping your perceptions of your fellow people.

And right here is what I'm talking about.

[–] Machinist@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How is that what you're talking about?
