latentcall··on Top UN legal investigators conclude Israel is guilty of genocide in Gaza
I can find you videos of mangled Palestinian children recorded every single day since October 8th 2023. So tell me, does October 7th in your eyes justify a war against civilians?

And if you’re about to tell me it isn’t a war against civilians, it should be easily provable by IDF videos of firefights with Hamas on a daily basis since October 8th 2023. However the videos I have seen have targeted civilians and civilian infrastructure.

“Half the pictures Hamas shows of starving children aren't legitimate. They're children with medical conditions, not in Gaza, or from a different conflict.”

This seems like a strong claim. Please back it up.

I see new videos everyday of massacres. Saw one yesterday of a baby burned to a crisp. What is your email? I can send it to you if you’d like so you can discern if the Palestinians are lying.

Many people are blind to what Israel and USA does, or are always making excuses for them and they buy the state propaganda.

Where is Hamas? How come I see Ukraine vs Russia combat footage every single day but only dead children out of Palestine? Where’s the IDF/Hamas combat footage? It’s because the IDF is just bombing kids.

There is no Hamas and if there is there’s barely any

How can anybody read language like that and be like “yep! Awesome!”. It’s just unprofessional, angry, petulant, and embarrassing.

Not to mention NPR is hardly left. NPR is left like Democrats are left.

Sinophobic junk. You got shown up by a free and open model and wasted a gazillion dollars, good job. So yes let’s ban the competition and force Americans to use the junky ad riddled cheap clones.

America and Americans by large and “greater good” do not mix well. It’s a very individualist society aka “care about myself” society.

They’re blowing up children. If I am against that, is that now a bad thing? This is how far we’ve fallen. We have a nation state committing a genocide of an indigenous people and the Human Rights Watch is accused of being biased against the genociders.

“I feel this organization is biased against the Nazi party” is essentially the same sentence.

When you have privilege, equality feels like oppression. I don’t know where I saw that quote from but I feel this summarizes your points.

Punish who for what? Can you demonstrably prove white people were harmed by DEIA? White people ran the last administration and this one too. What more do you want? Do you get upset if you see a black person drive a nicer car than you?

This anti-DEIA stuff is just cooked up to distract you from the real problems facing this country.
