I was replying to Count042@lemmy.ml
The murder of civilians by intentionally withholding food and water, and blockading all entrances to the area is explicitly a war crime.
I’m not disputing what they’re saying. I just get the feeling, that people tend to be quite one-sided when it comes to this issue. I’m not actually even quite sure why I replied to this user in particular, as the message itself I mostly agree with.
Sure people can criticize Hamas, but they’ve done considerably less damage in this conflict.
But is that because they’re being much more considerate and careful around civilians than the IDF or is it simply just lack of resources? Imagine if the roles were reversed.
Calling who out?
The people criticizing IDF for killing civilians while being unable to voice a single criticizm towards Hamas when they’re doing the exact same thing.
I won’t argue with you, in the same way that I won’t engage in an argument about racism with a piece of shit that uses the N-word, you child-murder justifying fuck.
Yet here you are still arguing.
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
I’m calling them out for criticizing Israel for killing civilians, but failing to criticize Hamas for doing the exact same thing.
There’s a ton I condemn Israel for. If this is true then I’ll just add it to the list. Believe it or not, I condemn the murder of civilians period. It doesn’t matter whose doing it. Plenty of religious extremism and disregard for others going on on both sides. That’s why I’m not rooting for one or the another.
Residents of the kibbutz said that Hamas fighters told them not to be afraid as they were there to fight the IDF, and they state they were not harmed by Hamas.
I condemn Israel for the civilians they’re killing in Gaza. I do not approve and I hope they will face the consequences for it.
Do you condemn Hamas for murdering the 250 innocent people at the peace rave? Are you able to critizice both sides or do you just turn a blind eye to the other?
Made in Gaza: Hamas Rockets the Product of Foreign Aid and Smuggled Material
UN gives them fertilizer to grow food and feed the people. Hamas uses it to make rocket fuel.

People here mostly seem to vote on basis of who they think the commenter is - not what they’re saying.
What in my message indicates to you that I didn’t read it?
It’s easy to say as someone with a healthy brain. A blind, deaf or a paralyzed person might feel different once there truly is a way to get your sight back with this technology.
I wonder what you guys thought animal testing is about, if this is somehow surprising to you. This is just another day at the office for the people running these experiments. The issue is not “Elon doing animal testing” but animal testing in itself.
However - if you think we shouldn’t do it then you should also be aware of the tradeoffs. Without this cruelty there’s no modern medicine either. Also, if you complain about this but eat meat then you’re a hypocrite.
I didn’t know such feature even existed
What is the difference exactly? It’s both animal testing. It’s going to be cruel by its very nature. They’re testing on animals because they’re not allowed to test on humans. If they could they would.
Everyone here acting like this is all black and white. Without animal testing there’s no modern medicine. That is a choise we could have made but didn’t. Thousands of animals had to suffer so that millions of people would not. From an utilitairian point of view it’s a no-brainer but it’s still cruel as fuck and there’s no getting around that. Animal testing or no - both leads to individuals suffering unecessarily.
I, for one aren’t willing to take the moral high ground here, because I eat meat ie. take part in the chicken/pig holocaust.
Considering that I get a few new bot followers every day, and has been for probably over a year now, but my total follower count isn’t increasing much, I’m quessing they’re indeed removing these accounts, but new ones just keep popping up. That would pretty much be on par with why he says he’s going to start charging for it.
I didn’t really have an opinion on the Israel/Palestine conflict or about Netanyahu as a person before he was a quest on Lex Fridman’s podcast. He seemed like an extremely disingenuous person, with obviously very politician answers to the questions presented to him. That made me, for the first time, to look into what this conflict is about and though it’s still quite nuanced, my view however isn’t especially favourable to Israel now.
Tubeless tires solves that issue aswell. You can drive over nails and the sealant inside the tire automatically plugs the hole.
None of what I’m saying disputes that. I hope Israel will be held accountable for all the crimes they’ve commited. I don’t agree with how, but I agree with why they’re doing it. What do you imagine they’re even supposed to do? On top of the IDF’s disregard, they’re commonly used as human shields aswell.
