I’m genuinely exhausted of Lemmy users trying to manipulate words and comments. 

If you oppose "killing innocent civilians" and "fighting back", then that implies that the guys "fighting back" have a good reason and are therefore the good guys. 

This is just not true. A group can fight back despite being “the bad ones”. Houthis have long claimed that Israel is their enemy but they started to take down ships and such because of Israel’s murdering in Gaza (hence fighting back for the Palestinian people). 

Anyway*, like I said, I’m exhausted of the twisting words. So I will let it as it is. 

Let's be real here, the Houthi would have shot at Israel ten years ago, if they had the means. Gaza is just a justification for them. Again, they want to kill all jews. Not just Israel, all jews.

Houthis have sworn that Israel is their enemy long before this. So yes, of course they would attack Israel. No, they are not using Gaza as a justification because they announced Israel is their enemy long before the entirety of 7th October and Israel’s genocide. 

I will stop respond because, I’m about to sleep. After that, it is a new day and I won’t comment either. However, please, stop trying to twist and manipulate people’s comments. Debates can be respectful, meaningful and without manipulation.

You’re right but the first comment sounded to me as a justification for Israel to murder more innocent people (which I genuinely believe will happen).

EDIT;

if those guys are the ones you're rooting for...

Just because I’m giving a counter argument to someone, does not directly mean, I would support any of the sides. I notice an influx of this manipulation of words and comments. Kind of disappointed.

That would be like me now saying “if those guys [IDF] are the ones you are rooting for…” just because you mentioned that Houthi’s are not the good ones.

Israel is actively murdering innocent civilians (men, women and children). Israeli strikes kill 33 people in Jabalia refugee camp in Gaza, medics say and that article is one out of hundreds. 

That is not fighting back, that is bombing and murdering random civilians

The Houthis keep shooting at civilians. Pretty expected the world would defend their people.

Your first comment (the one above) looks like it gave a justification for Israel to murder more innocent civilians.

Israeli regime is actively murdering innocent civilians. Pretty expected groups like Houthis would fight back.

Lemmy has a bit more active users which is great. However, I have also noticed that Lemmy has gotten similar things as Reddit these days. Different opinions are not welcome, quick/ angry comments (politic community though)

However, Lemmy now has a decent app(s) such as Voyager. I also love that Lemmy does not restrict/ block users from using swear words (at least the instance I’m on does not). 

Though in all honesty, I mostly use an RSS-feed such as Reeder and InoReader.

I’m satisfied and proud of myself (sounds ego-ish but hear me out). When I was a kid, I was in a school for children that could (or would) not learn. All you learnt was basics of life and at 18 you just work without a degree.

I worked my way up in education from lower education to now having a bachelor degree in Finance (the exact degree everyone told me, I would never be able to get).

I’m currently taking a bit off, trying to find work and might go for master degree or something else in my country that’s equivalent to the CPA of US.

I often silently say Fuck You to the family members who always told me “you can’t do it”, “just give up” and that shit.

I explained myself, that’s all. You seem to try to agitate me, therefore, I will ignore you from now on. Still enjoy your day though.

Thanks, I appreciate the gift!

Wow, I did not know that. Thanks for pointing that out /s

Yeah and if that's what they see and/ or believe, that's okay. Like I said, I do not care about down nor upvotes. I disabled it and pay no attention to it at all (it means nothing anyway). I stick to the opinion, I have and others do so as well. That's about it, I guess.

Down and upvotes are fictional. Exit or stop using a platform that has it and then the up/downvotes has no influence. Besides that, the down/vote up on Lemmy does not restrict the user in any way.

All in the name* of “self-defense”, I suppose. It’s sickening that countries still give weapons and money to Israel.

No worries, I don’t keep myself busy with up/downvote system. I actually disabled it a long while ago. Especially since it means nothing on Lemmy (as far as I know).

People downvote me because they don’t agree with my opinion, that’s all.
