Probably not wise to be walking around with a target on your back like that.

This is what Liberals mean when they say Palestinians should be "liberated from hamas" (regardless of if they know it)

Israel will claim “it is Hamas fault”. Seriously I’m immensely perplexed and devastated that the world leaders are allowing this to happen.

My comment might get removed (like it did a year ago) or banned but whatever. Israel government is basically just Nazi 2.0. Their whole ideology, behavior, racism, superior complex and hatred is the same if not worse than Nazis.

Not only that, they’ve been doing this stuff for decades. Longer than Nazi-Germany.

they hide behind the shield of calling anyone criticizing them anti-semitic, plus the non-stop military aid to Israel is another, if even one country or the us reduces aid, i bet the tune would change pretty quick, but they would draw the ire of "pro-zionist" backers from the west, plus defense contracters.

I think it's important to point out that the Nazis aren't Israel's inspiration but they are influenced by similar things. Hitler was directly inspired by manifest destiny and Israel similarly by settler colonial projects. Naomi Klein talks about it in detail in her book Doppelganger

Mosad. That's why. They have infiltrated damned near every world government.

[–] Eternal192@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 1 week ago

I once had a thought that Epstein is (don't believe he's dead, just changed his face and sent him home) Mosad, he ruined tens of thousands of lives even more than i would like to find out so that they could hold the world by the balls when they enact their grand plan.

They don't allow this to happen, they are active participants and are 100% on board with what Israel is doing.

What do you call a "female journalist"?

A journalist.

Edit: I've been too hard on the hexbear crowd it seems. Surprising amount of sexism in my replies here.

[–] AskThemRight@thebrainbin.org -1 points 6 days ago

Typical performative neoliberalism.

Doesn't care about people dying, whines about terminologies.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 34 points 1 week ago (3 children)

True but I'm more outraged at Israel 's genocide than OP's sexism.

As of today, she's a corpse.

It was the only way they could silence her.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 week ago

What's bad about pointing out the diversity in Palestinian journalism?

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'd assumed the female part was somehow relevant. I'm vaguely aware that in some parts of the world women dont have it as easy in others.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 21 points 1 week ago

Palestinian women are indeed far more oppressed than women in the West.

Coincidentally they are being oppressed by the West.

[–] michaelmrose@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Its relevant insofar as the majority of cultures violence towards women is considered worse.

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

I can be mad at two things.

Español: Periodista (female) and Periodisto (male)

[–] iveseenthat@reddthat.com 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

most likely u are joking, but "periodisto" does not exist in Spanish

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What?

Its like carro (male car).
And carra (female car!).

Barro (zit).
Barra (female zit!).

Perro (dog).
Hija de su repuerca retroreputa bombs madre (bitch).

See its very simple!

LOL. Well, you know, with respect LOL.

What else can we do other than look at the atrocities of the day and try to find something to keep our spirits up for tomorrow's atrocities?

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

Say rip instead of stupid technicalities

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Maybe don't insult her memory?

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world -2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You are the one insulting her. Say rip to her and condemn israel war crimes or just shut up. Or do the two thing thst any decent person would then tslk about the technicality you care about

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You're honoring her memory by being sexist towards her?

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You are honoring her by not saying rest in peace and by not condemning her killer?

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm doing both. You're attacking me for one.

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

Where did you say rip and condemned isrsel? Why are you lying?

[–] AskThemRight@thebrainbin.org 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)
[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

That's what i thought. Zionists are master of deflection

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!

[–] Rancidmango3000@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 week ago

Jesus fucking Christ I was joking when I, in my head said RIP Journalist. FFS

Looks like an evil Hamas terrorist to me /s

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Rip, death death to the idf
