Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- No genocide denial
We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.
Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!
Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it
Kropotkin's Conquest Of Bread
Selected works of Marx

In the post body there's a link to a UN report

Questions of systemic sexual violence aside, there's definite evidence of sexual assault of both hostages and victims by Hamas or Hamas-aligned forces, which is what Davel is denying.
Israel is definitely guilty of systemic sexual violence, as reports from detained Palestinian political prisoners have shown.
It's just fucked up to deny something like this. Like condemning the Holocaust and denying the Holodomor which, tbf, is something we see a bit of due to this comm's purpose.
