You're irrational rationalization of horrendous genocide is beyond reason. You are unreachable. I won't waste my time on your inhumanity.
Asking College Students if They Know Why They are Protesting
- Thread starter The Oracle
- Start date
Students are justified in protesting if the university they joined in Sept aids the genocide that started in Oct, considering that Israel destroyed every single university in Gaza and ran a campaign to assassinate profs.
This is the speech Columbia cancelled.
This is Calgary using riot cops on students.
Like I said, you are incapable of addressing any of my points, which are all valid. All you can do is rant.
They have the right, but have no right to make demands or occupy property which is not theirs.
You totally support Israel illegally occupying Palestine and think students protesting genocide is an 'illegal occupation'.
That is the most ridiculous lack of self awareness I've seen from you all day!
What a fucking mess of a response....
So, I'm just going to talk about one of the stupid things you said, which was that someone who hates Hamas shouldn't protest against Israel. Why not? Why is that dumb? You can hate a terror organization but still be outraged and disgusted by Israel's actions in Gaza, where they have killed thousands with little regard to the fact that they were civilians. Does that make Israel better than Hamas, who would kill and Israeli given the opportunity? It is pretty obvious that you see things in black or white. There is no grey. No nuance to any argument. It figures.

The UN votes to admit Palestine as a full member, though they do not yet get a vote.
Trudeau abstained.
Trudeau abstained.
It's functionally binary.
This is a problem with any FPTP system, but presidential elections in the US more than most.
Functionally, RFK Jr and Cornel West cannot win.
They can only help one of Trump or Biden win.
Hell, RFK's campaign person in New York even told Trump supporters that - the common enemy is Biden, and RFK running makes it easier for Trump to win. (Now, she may be wrong about that, since her whole argument was based on RFK Jr winning blue states like New York, but that is what she said.)
Cornel West won't be running in most states.
The US system, as constructed, will elect only Biden or Trump.
Any vote you cast (or choice not to vote) will only change the odds of one of those two outcomes.
Interesting rhetorical trick in that tweet.
Biden talks about "Hamas" and this guy then makes the analogy to "White people" not (for instance) "The KKK".
Pretty obvious, but I guess it is good enough for twitter engagement.
Let me know when you want to have a serious discussion, which is impossible as long as you intentionally misrepresent what others are saying.
???
if you hate Hamas, you are supporting them by protesting against Israel (jews)
i know it is a two step application of logic, is that beyond your capabilities ?
they are mortal enemies, Hamas wants to eliminate Israel (jews) and Israel (Jews) is (are) no fan of that idea
So, if you hate both , it raises the question who don't you hate?
what the value of an opinion driven by hatred ?
hatred is not a good rational for any action , including protesting
protesting is an attempt at moral suasion. When was the last time hatred held the moral high ground ?
but alas , you chose the word hate
a better rational might be you oppose Hamas's barbaric actions
you could also oppose actions by Israel (Jews) to defend itself (themselves)
but then you are back to supporting Hamas by protesting against Israel (Jews)
the other obvious reason if you hate Hamas and you hate Israel (Jews) , your view is not fully expressed at a protest
Protests against Israel (Jews) are perceived by the public as just that 'a Protests against Israel (Jews)" and only Israel (Jews)
protesting is an attempt at moral suasion of the public
are you sure you only want the public to know about only 50% of your hatred?
now you could go and protest against both Hamas and Israel (jews) at the same time , but you would just be the lone blithering idiot screaming hatred on the street corner.
enough nuance to differentiate between hatred and opposing

and you continue to call genocide a legit war... what is your Jewish connection that has so tragically distorted your perceptions? This is ethnic cleansing against a defenseless people, carried out with no attempts to spare civilians.
And you continue to spread hate speech of genocide, ethnic cleansing and no regard for civilian lives.
If those were truly Israeli goals there would be a million dead by now and the UN would have passed numbered resolutions declaring those things have happened. They passed resolutions in 1962 regarding S. African apartheid. Nothing at all like that in regards to Israel.
please define a legitimate war ?
please explain how this is not genocide ?

You think I'm the one that does that constantly?
That's funny,
The students are taking action against profs who attack their freedom of speech now.
Its antisemitic to try to tie the entire Jewish people to a genocidal government and colonial settler movement.
Take some time to check out anti zionist Jewish groups and limit your discussion to the government of Israel.
Nah, Netanyahu's goal is as much genocide as he can get away with.
This is the first time he went too far.
