    I have no idea where this mass of pro-Israel lemmy users are. I must not be federated with whoever you’re talking about

      The power mod that runs all of .worlds political coms banned me for reporting a Gaza genocide denier.

      I haven’t been paying nearly enough attention to Israel stuff, only picking up bits and pieces from people talking about it. Every single thread devolves into people accusing eachother of all kinds of hatred and isms and if you support one side you support genocide but if you support the other side you must support genocide and that never happened and this never happened and the things everyone agrees happened were false flags or foreign intervention or necessary because you don’t understand the context which might or might not be real only if you hate Jews and so on and so on.

      It occurred to me I cant even be sure that Israel actually exists. Its on maps, people talk about it. Everyone’s getting pissed at eachother from their computers over what goes on there, but I doubt anybody I see arguing has even been there to make sure the place exists.

        This the most disgustingly self centred and myopic comment I have ever seen in my life. Westerners genuinely don’t conceive of foreigners as human

          Well done. The important thing is to stay on the attack and generalise as much as possible. Remember, everybody wants death to everybody no matter what they say, you just have to twist meanings and make shit up and apply it to as wide a group as you can.

              By suggesting that my lack of known to be true information means that I, and by extension everybody in my quarter of the world, is incapable of empathy.

              Not suggesting, outright stating. Its nonsense like this that keeps people from being informed. Keep fighting that good fight.
