Hate the state of Israel ≠ Support Nazi

Support Palestine ≠ Support Hamas

Its getting harder to believe that if we could do this to the Thiel's of the world this rhetoric wouldn't disappear.

revolution means more than just killing the enemy

Does it? If a loudspeaker is pushing a madness through its coils that drives animals mad is the solution to change the structure of animal behavior or turn the loudspeaker off so it can never make animals fall to madness again?

look i aint no cowbee and i just woke up, revolution means a lot of things, and it isnt a one and done deal. your analogy kinda masks what youre trying to say so i don't really know where to start.

there are much smarter people than me that have written a greater amount then i ever could, go read their stuff.

edit: oh and to answer your question, yes, revolution means more than just killing the enemy.

And all I said was this rhetoric, I didnt actually believe my big hand squish hypothetical was a real revolution, just that if you could magically do this problems would vanish overnight, not all but surprising ones for sure. Though in 2026, simply murdering billionaires with no other plan is revolutionary.

Yep! This is what Israel understands but pretends not to. I have no issues with Jewish people but I have plenty of issues with Israel.

They have lost the narrative so badly that even the Jews are openly speaking out against them.

I wish I could do this to racists and fascists in real-life.

Kek is one of those words I've never wanted to look up on urban dictionary

[–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

Its origins are fairly benign and kind of interesting imo: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=kek

Ofc still unfortunate that it's been adopted by obnoxious memelord racists.

It's lol. In the game world of Warcraft it scrambles enemy faction global coms through a Caeser cipher. 4chan adopted it as an in joke.
