I haven’t read them yet, so I can’t say I agree or not, but now their opinion is not completely invalid.

The state of liberal "intellectualism".

Simply put: maintaining the status quo is prerequisite to their comfortable living.

When libs like them cry "nuance" it usually means sympathizing with settler-colonialists, billionares and others that are far removed from any uncontrollable circumstances + are well-off in most ways.

When you use their same retort except the framing is that e.g. the genocide is bipartisan (which is literally correct), somehow that's not "nuanced" enough and that you may be "appealing to one party".

Well said.

Countries that gravitated towards the Western tech ecosystem (whether willingly or otherwise) always get enveloped with seemingly no way out.... the only way out is if they stopped rubbing shoulders with fucking Western digital landlords and move towards coming up with state-owned solutions...

but nah screw all that let's just make WhatsApp and Instagram de facto mandatory to conduct most forms of business in West Asia and LATAM

Why the centre will ~~not hold~~ always fold

the person that replied to you already provided one of many examples that people in that position could do. The people that are oppressed, that don't have the luxury of having a permanent roof over their heads (any makeshift camps eventually gets destroyed with the people in it as well by the entity), that have their children stolen from them, whether metaphorically or literally, or become orphaned themselves, etc etc don't get to have a say in the matter.

To equate them to fucking flight attendants that are perfectly capable of taking even the most minimal of actions, which at worst case could get them a slap on the wrist, is absurd, disgusting and vile, lib.

Yeah but have you considered that they weep in sorrow and have minor migraines afterwards? Oh the pain and suffering these "hapless", "choiceless" white collar workers have to go through!

Looks like that one might've gotten you scratched, bloodthirsty lib. Projection of what? And what mental gymnastics? I answered the question straight and to the point, with no fluff to skirt around the question, or any of the questions for that matter.

Seems you just recently found out about these terms, then decided to incorrectly use them to avoid actually engaging with the topic + to avoid any of the questions, because once you do eventually find out the answers to them, you'll come to realize that you're defending Zionism and by extension, US Imperialism.

No. "Israeli civilians" is an oxymoron: as Israelis are reservists at best and full-time genociders at least. They're Europeans/Americans, and they all had a choice in the matter when settling in land that don't belong to them. History did not begin on the 7th of October, 2023. Refer back to this lovely reply by @[email protected] who manages to succinctly clear your doubts: https://lemmy.ml/post/29464508/18363453

I realise my other repeated question so far has been pretty tough and you’ve had to try to continuously dodge and deflect from it instead of just simply say the thing you actually think

Question:

Literally supports my point. So again, what about it, exactly, do you disagree with?

Answer:

Your “erm, akshually”-esque point makes complete sense when you don’t consider Palestinians as humans and have no right to resistance. there’s nothing to “agree” or “disagree” with.

Whether my questions are answered or not, reality won't be forgiving, unfortunately for you soon enough you'll have to come to terms with it, lib.

Your "erm, akshually"-esque point makes complete sense when you don't consider Palestinians as humans and have no right to resistance. It's not an opinion, there's nothing to "agree" or "disagree" with.

Now quit squirming and answer each and every single question posed. Or what, you wanna pass on the opportunity to show the 10 other people reading this thread how much you understand the subject, since you libs love to tout "nuance" so much when all you do is play semantics?
