I keep hearing people say that Hamas doesn't represent the Palestinian people, yet they don't want to call out Hamas. So which is it? Is calling out Hamas anti Palestinian or does Hamas not represent Palestinians? The people refusing to call out Hamas can't seem to decide.

You mean the people on Lemmy?

I'll call them out for you: Hamas is a piece of shit and needs to be removed. Apartheid needs to end.

Both things can be true at the same time.

That depends what you mean by calling out Hamas. Their terrorist actions are of course despicable but twisting every civilian victim of Israel's bombing campaign as "Hamas was using them as human shields so it is not Israel's fault" equally so.

Is calling out Hamas anti Palestinian
