  • I liketo think my take on the conflict is pretty nuanced. Generally, I don’t like the State of Isreal.

    Let me be crystal clear with what I just wrote: I believe the government of Isreal has fostered a culture of dehumanizing Palestinians and is complicit in crimes against humanity. This is apparent with its history of stealing land and extra-judicial killings of Palestinian civilians by the IDF. The people of Israel deserve so much better.

    This sentiment also largely applies to Palestine. The Hamas Government triggered this conflict by striking at civilians in Israel. I understand that their primary driving ideology is to kill jews and I think that is fucked up. I also understand that after years of the afore mentioned land grabbing and killings it has led to these extreme attacks by Hamas. It really feels like a chicken and egg situation, which started first. Either way the people of Palestine deserve so much better.

    I am more than capable of assigning blame to the appropriate places and lament the affects it has on the victims of violence.




  • Authoritarian apologists that pretend to be communists. You can find them in the wild typically talking about how great and strong the Chinese government is and how evil and corrupt the “US Imperials” are.

    Historically the term was used to describe communist members that defended the use of tanks against civilians during an uprising idln Hungary, hence the name.
