Once again you have prescribed a position to me that I do not have. I haven’t defended the actions of either the US or Israel, merely pointed out that YOU are using bad arguments.
What is your support of the Palestinians worth?
I have donated a small amount (I still need to pay rent) to the Palestinian relief fund. Is my contribution not valid because the value is only $200? Is that really what we are dogging on people for now?
I have not defended the US bombings in Yemen, and have personally participated in two protests of these attacks (One at my state capital and one at my local university.)
I need you to understand that people will look at statements like “the ends justify the means” as justification to keep killing Palestinians. You are actively making my job as a progressive harder by saying things like this.
I’m honestly not sure if you aren’t looking at names or if you are just arguing in bad faith here. The original comment I responded to was a response to an even worse take that was not made by me. Stop prescribing people positions that they don’t have, have not stated, and have actively been against.
I’m not against the Palestinians or Yemeni population, I am against rhetoric that can be used to justify genocides. You can support these groups just as well by saying things other than “any action against Israel is justified”
An ethnic cleansing of the Israeli population would reduce their capability of genocide, but is still an evil that I could not support.
You could have at least Google searched it before attempting a gotcha, there are three methods. One doesn’t actually change the color, but the other two do.
