I love being a pelican

Probably, but like, that’s silly in this case

Germany is funding Israel. That’s why there are protests. Do you not know that Germany actively assists in Israels genocide? They make trouble in Berlin because Berlin is making trouble in Palestine.

Also, people are people no matter where they are or what flag they fly. Your morality and sense of human responsibility doesn’t end at a border.

Hell yeah

Here’s a reply on this same post where I do just that. My problem isn’t “communists don’t do propaganda” that’s silly. My problem is calling out ideological use of propaganda without also mentioning liberal propaganda, the one we are immersed in so completely.

Shoulda read more than the very first comment before commenting on what I was and wasn’t doing. :)

Hey bit biter, that’s my line.

Also, it’s just fun to point out when people mention propaganda with “fascists and communists” as if doing propaganda is an evil manipulation of the public but fails to mention the most successful ideology to use propaganda, liberals.

Wait until this guy finds out about the entire USSR film industry.

You ever seen Stalker? Good movie.

The state of this sad world butthurt me. Do you not have a passion? Taking pride in your lack of emotion? What a weird flex

Who said that? Communist propaganda has a big history in film. USSR had a huge film industry and artists tend to be leftist.

Howmstever, it’s funny to call it propaganda, a typically derogatory term but I’m gonna say your not the kinda guy who would recognize propaganda as such if it belongs to things you consider “regular”

That’s the point I was making. Would you like it explained again?

That’s a lot of opinion for someone who doesn’t know what’s going on.

“not how it works in Germany” we ain’t talking laws, we talking morality. We are talking how things should be. Laws are irrelevant to morality and if that’s your argument then you are lost.

Armed gang of men show up to a peaceful protest to commit violence and are surprised when they are retaliated against. Gtfo

The ultralib can’t help but throw communists into his lil take, as if he doesn’t live in a culture dominated by liberal propaganda to the point that he can’t even recognize it.

Saying we don’t agree doesn’t justify holding a morally abhorrent position. Just means you’re done trying to have a good reason. You opened this whole convo with “someone tell me who’s right in this” and I did and all you did was justify a genocide you said you knew nothing about.

You can’t “not agree” you have no opinion with any basis. You defaulted to the genociders side for some ungodforsaken reason and took a stand there while also self proclaiming your ignorance.

You asked for an explanation. You got one. And yet somehow with literally everyone who replied to you telling you what the fuck is up you somehow still went from no opinion to “fuck it, I’m actually pro genocide at this point. No half measures”

Go fuck yourself

It’s not an insult to compare a genocide to a genocide. It’s a genocide. An extermination. The point is to put that weight of history on you. If you cannot bring yourself to see the wholesale slaughter of a people as the same due to who those people are and who’s committing it, that’s a issue.

Brother in Christ, do you want to just be pro genocide at that rate? No reason to stop the Holocaust now, it’s basically over, might as well let them finish? Is that the actual position you want to take

The problem is that it isn’t done. Its happening right now. This isn’t like the native Americans where they have already been completely displaced and whatnot. Its happening right now before your eyes.

The main solution has been a two state solution. That would be what your saying as “what’s done is done and accept it”

But Israel has rejected a two state solution for its entire existence, and continued colonizing and genociding folk to get the land they claim

That’s right now at this moment. I cannot stress this enough, it’s like going to a native American before the trail of tears and saying “I don’t know, seems like what’s done is done” when we have only just started starving and slaughtering their entire population. There’s so much slaughter left to go.

This isn’t done. Israel is committing a colonizing genocide right now. Today. Right now. Today. Right. Now. Today.

Israel is a colony. Do I need to explain why showing up to a place, claiming it as your own and violently repressing natives to make it so is bad? Sorry I don’t mean to be snarky, I just wanted to be simple

Well, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a morally good colony. Kinda gotta be a dick to be a colony.

It’s just self reporting your own misogyny if you think it’s cause they were women and not because of who they were as people
