Right because two wrongs make a right. Well done.

Man that's convenient.

Twitter normalized of extremely simplistic expression of complicated issues which leads to all kinds of kneejerk reactions. Some men misinterpret whatever complaint as being about them and turn defensive, and of course the most aggressive of those voices are amplified by social media. The inflammatory comments beget more inflammatory comments, reasonable people quickly exit the space and this is what you end up with.

I firmly believe it's social media that's to blame.

When we talk about Palestinian violence we (rightly) put it in context of the oppression they suffered. You can't expect an oppressed people to react kindly and patiently to their oppressors. But this guy apparently does not deserve this circumspect approach. We know nothing about him other than he is claimed to be an Israeli soldier but he might have any number of mental illnesses, PTSD, what have you. But we're perfectly happy to label him a monster, no questions asked.

I'm not trying to justify any violent behavior obviously, but we sure do love putting the excesses of "our" side in broader context, and highlighting perceived injustices of "theirs" without context.

Well as the downvotes you just got show, Lemmy is just another Reddit clone. No place for rational thought. You either jump on the bandwagon or be railroaded out of town.

Yeah you're right, these people are just born monsters, as a baby he was probably already biting the other babies when he got the chance. In fact, shouldn't even consider these people human right?

Such a dumb take.

To feature on the news you need to at least throw in a few racial slurs or do a stupid dance. Otherwise where's the entertainment value?

I mean yeah absolutely protest your bosses unethical behavior but don't be surprised if they then kick you out. But that's good, more media coverage for your stated goal.

Don't worry, we're going to preserve these games anyway. Copyright means absolutely nothing in the digital age.

Jesus Christ I'm so tired of having to take these absolute morons seriously. In their tiny pea brain they think they're making a brilliant point here. "I are good guy, you am bad guy" Maybe democracy really is a mistake.
