If you are ever asked this question, or any variation of it, by someone who supports Israel, do not dignify it with an answer.

It is nothing but an attempt to distract from the obvious fact that for the best part of a century the Palestinian people have been living under the boot of an oppressive apartheid regime that is guilty of crimes that far exceed anything Hamas could ever even dream of committing.

Do not give the zionist fucks an inch.

in the pretty shitty Andrew Whatsisname video where he goes to a palestine rally in america somewhere, he lets organizers and other people talk and they're all good but then of course he has to bothsides it by letting some israeli rapper dudebro speak as well.

said dudebro turns to the organizer and asks "do you denounce hamas tho" and she's like "not the right question to ask right now" and he's not having it. then he goes on to ask the camera "what if your cute sister was at a music festival..." debord-tired

so an otherwise OK segment where people get to voice actual shit gets overshadowed by dudebro essentially drowning them out with fart noises. and half the comments predictably are "oh she didn't engage with him in the marketplace of ideas, the left can't comprehend this nuanced and complex issue"

What if my sister decided to gloat about a genocide by partying next to the world's largest concentration camp? I would probably cut contact with her.
