It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Calling Israel an apartheid state would have triggered response against him and labeled as an anti-Semite.
This episode is a half-measure, and suggests the problem of Israel is the right-wing government led by Netenyahu and Likud - with Hamas as their mirror - and not something endemic to settler colonial states seeking displacement of Palestinians from the West Bank, Gaza, and Israel's interior borders.
John Oliver at the very least does scold world leaders for letting this carnage continue by avoiding pressure of ceasefire.
