I'm not spreading any conspiracy theories, and calling out Israel for committing genocide is not antisemitism.
You are brainwashed. You are sympathetic of literal Nazi behaviour.
You claim others are falling for propaganda and yet here you are saying that Israel's genocide isn't genocide. I guess you think Russia's invasion of Ukraine is merely a "special military operation", too?
Wow I bow to you're impressive use of tautological fallacy.
I think Russia started a war to send young people to die to restore some old map that never existed in their lifetimes. Just like Hamas is doing. I think Hamas is using the same Iranian made weaponry that Russia is currently using. You're so obsessed with bullshit internet conspiracies, you aren't even seeing the obvious.
The Nazis were the antisemitic guys in WWII. Maybe crack open a history book an read things other than what the internet is pushing at you. You may see some parallels. The Nazis talked a lot like Hamas talks now. Look at the photos of German cities at the end of WWII. Were the people dropping the bombs on those cities the ones committing genocide? Or were the people that were living in those bombed out buildings committing genocide? If you're only looking at images and repeating what you're told to say, you might say the allies committed genocide because look at the destruction of those cities! Look at the number of civilian casualties! If you said that Goebbels would be proud.
OR maybe this is just something that happens in places that put a genocidal regime in power.
Remember the strongmen of Hamas are right now hiding underground leaving the population of Gaza at the mercy of an army they claim to be committing genocide. Why would these brave fighters that say that becoming a martyr is the thing they want the most be behaving in this way? If Hamas came to the surface for a final glorious battle with the IDF it would all be over wouldn't it? So why don't they do that, if as they claim, Israel is committing genocide?
Not even Hamas really thinks Israel is committing genocide. So why do you?
Or maybe Hamas does think Israel is committing genocide and they're choosing to hide underground and just let it happen. Then why do the Palestinian people not turn against them?
Propaganda tends to fall apart when you think about it for five minutes.
You're just throwing shit at the wall man. You slap together strawmen in the form of a rhetorical question assigning a obviously weak position to the other commenter, over and over again. Why?
They weren't defending the targeting of civilians in WWII.
They weren't arguing that Hamas is not antisemitic.
They weren't claiming Hamas is brave or pure in spirit.
They don't claim Hamas has justification.
They don't justify acts of destruction and terrorizing Jewish communities.
On and on and on. Do you always operate this way?
Yes, yes they do. You are dealing with someone who has fashioned there entire rhetorical style after the Gish Gallop. They will absolutely never engage honestly with any of your arguments or criticisms because they want to poison the well by using a constant barrage of heavily regurgitated arguments interwoven with new, but equally myopic ones. Then add on top of that a delusional sense of intellectual superiority sprinkled with a pathological need to justify the "obvious moral superiority of the zionist movement", and you can see where this person is not a good faith actor.
Israel is committing genocide. You are a Nazi.
