Palestine

918 readers

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

Remember the animation he made which said that Gaza belongs to the Jews and that Muslims stole it?

Wait, which animation is this?

The one where all the different Abrahamic religions are at a dinner party.

Moses orders a "Gaza Strip Steak" while the Muhammad stand-in receives it by mistake. Then everyone else demands that "Muhammad gives it back to the rightful owner."

Another garden-variety western imperialist who thinks they're a "free-thinker" because they left religion. The western atheist celebrity sphere is such a disappointment, but I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, cause celebrities in general tend to have garbage takes.

Damn, I wonder what guarantees people's sovereignty and rights in this stage of development if not a state? CHAZ?

Yep, it's precisely because we are not misconstruing that we think he is a dumbass that needs to be ignored.

I think a lot of these people try to come up with niche takes for clout. I find it hard to believe this is a sincere take, but who knows lol

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Another take we’ve all seen a million times. It’s totally important for everyone to see that some nobody on twitter had a generic bad take./s

This person is a big deal in the new atheist movement. It is definitely important to expose the Zionists and not just not share their bad takes because it might mildly annoy some people and make them low key bully others with their sarcastic prepubescent teenager snarky low effort replies instead of responding like normal adults. This is not comradeship behavior. Leave this toxic behavior on Reddit or better yet, just downvote and move on.

No, this take has been posted a ton of times on here. It doesn’t matter if it’s a new person. I’m not being toxic I’m promoting a higher standard of posting that other people also want.

I’m not being toxic

Your reply is literally bad faith sarcasm

I’m promoting a higher standard of posting

You can create your own community where you not allow these kind of posts if you want then, but you have no right to impose what you want on a community that is not yours.

It doesn’t matter if it’s a new person

It does matter! All Zionists must be exposed and it is your problem if you don’t agree. Please don’t mini mod/bully me about me that.

Edit: You also mentioned that this was just some random person on the internet. They are not. They are very popular and their opinion influence a lot of people. Taking away their popularity by showing their bad takes it’s important for people not to fall for them.

It’s not bad faith because I’m not debating you. Sarcasm isn’t bad.

No I can’t, there’s only one SRS. IMO the dunk tank is too heavy, but others here agree we should raise the standards a little.

We’ve already exposed these exact talking points before. There is no need to do so again. Don’t take this as an insult, just comradely criticism.

No one who might be listening to this person is going to see this and change their mind. Yes, some twitter idiot with 40k followers is a inconsequential nobody.

Okay fine, just don’t use that kind of sarcasm again, it came off as patronizing which is what bothered me.

If you didn’t mean it that way, then I will just take into consideration your comment about this on further posts that I post. ✌🏽☮️

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

I was a little annoyed with the general low quality of posts, but not you specifically.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

can we not post random cracker takes?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

This guy is preoccupied with combating religions, in so doing, he attacks the cultural identities of religious people. As a consequence, he is unable to convince or rally religious people for good cause. He is as detrimental to social harmony as religious fundamentalism.

He is the epitome of a stereotypical Western leftist, who enjoys debating on ideas inconsequential but shy away from taking stance on issues that actually matter.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

That whole New Atheist crowd fucking sucks, so hard. I hate these people so much.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

The notion of disentangling the people from the state seems popular in impetialist countries. I wonder why that is.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

"i don't want my words miscontrued" bro no one cares about you or your words

Anarcho-Dumbassism

Such an easy take to have. Of course you support not killing children. That's what any normal human being does. Great way to ignore the hard questions in the room.

Anticolonialism is a tough thing to understand for Westerners and it makes them uncomfortable.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

I made the mistake of clicking on a reddit thread about New Caledonia. TIL it's racist and oppressive to not want colonizers being allowed to vote to keep your home a colony
