Btw in Germany the courts ruled that From the river to the sea as parole itself is not unlawful. The arrested person got acquitted.

Hamas and its symbols are illegal however.

Didn't they also arrest a guy for writing some random Arabic on a flag because Hamas also has a flag written in Arabic?

Idk did they? Who knows man a lot of stuff is said on the internet that might’ve or might’ve not happened

The least goated take. While it is good to give the benefit of doubt where it is due, there is a line where it starts to taste like shoe leather.

So the goated take in your opinion would be to just believe that a guy in Germany was arrested for writing random Arabic letters that kinda look like the Hamas logo without any proof or sources because it fits a certain narrative?

I’m not saying it’s impossibleb but there should be some evidence for such a strong claim

No, you see; that is why your take is so ungoated. You know it is not an impossible claim, you also have access to internet, but you opt for benefit of the doubt. As I said, there is a line between fair benefit of the doubt and the taste of shoe leather.

Yea I did 5 minutes research on google and nothing turned up. If it’s such an outrageous case it should be easy to find - so your point is that I should invest hours trying to prove some claim that some rando typed on here while taking a shit.

Nah bro a goat like me has much better things to do.

If you make outrageous claims the burden of proof is on you and not the people you’re talking to.

You don't have to prove anything, but given the staggering amount of evidence to support such event as likely, you opt to dismiss it without evidence. Like I said, shoe leather.

Since there is such a staggering amount of evidence around, care to provide even a single piece?

Evidence for what?

That in Germany “they also arrest a guy for writing some random Arabic on a flag because Hamas also has a flag written in Arabic” - that was what I didn’t believe initially, and what you called me a bootlicker for lmao

Yes.
