You keep saying that which is ironically quite a childish position.

"Stop bombing children" "stop bombing children"

completely oblivious to the complexity of the situation

Reminds me of Kamala Harris mocking the words "build more schools, less prisons". It's the same smug, neoliberal affect

damn rupi kaur fell off

It is complicated, just not how they want it to be. Violence indeed bad, but fighting against oppressors good. The palestinians fighting against the IOF and thereby leading to "civilian" (can't really be a civilian if you're actively participating in settler-colonialism) deaths getting caught in the crossfire. This is sad, but unavoidable in the fight against oppression and as such, not bad.
Tada! Complications! Just not how reddit want it.

I can't even tell which side this post is supposed to be on. But I'm very happy with my blanket policy of "Don't fucking bomb children."

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
