I’m just incredibly shocked by the fact that an admin of the instance lemmy.dbzer0.com is openly supporting Hamas.

I am not endorsing Hamas as the legitimate leadership of Palestine. But I am saying that there is no credible evidence of rape and murder of civilians “as resistance.” You are perpetuating a harmful zionist talking point uncritically and it does the work for who you claim not to support for them. The world is filled with enough injustice to speak truth into the world about how genocide and the starving of children is wrong without doing what you’re doing here.
Hamas raped women during the 7th of October and sexually assaulted hostages. There was also the whole massacre thing during the 7th of October where the terrorists filmed themselves shooting elderly in their homes.
These guys have no argument except calling everything Hasbara, it’s such a shit show.

Since they know they have no ground to stand on, they default to base programming.
I think it’s a sunk cost fallacy, they can’t handle considering that not everything is so black and white and that resistance movements may not always be the ‘good guy’ – They’re in too deep.
Yeah ambiguity is hard. Defaulting to campism is easy. Israel bad, Palestine good, Hamas good, Tankies happy. I just wish some of the self proclaimed Marxist would actually be able to think dialectical.
Nah man, marxism and communism are long dead and probably won’t ever return
