[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...
These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.
To reiterate some of the points:
1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.
2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.
3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.
4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.
5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.
If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.
Please be aware this thread is strictly moderated[/quote]

As a middle eastern guy from a Muslim family let me just say to anyone watching Victor is the white guy pretending to give a **** just to score sick burns on a poker forum whose virtue signaling to literally zero end or purpose we just don't need
I think Victor likes to pick a topic and pick a side. He then goes to work googling stories that support his narrative. Perhaps this is how he educates himself. It would be nice if he researched both sides but whatever. He seems to get a kick out of pushing peoples buttons. He doesn't bother me at all. He's basically harmless. It's interesting what motivates people. I think for some in here it is all tribal. For others I'm sure they would love to say what they really think but there are restrictions on that.
I do think there are a ton of virtue signalers in this forum. Ironically these people have done no research. They are spoon fed their talking points by the main street media. I'm betting only a couple people in here actually care about the "Palestinian people".
Happy to help, generic white guy shitbro from a red state who thinks daddy Donny should be my personal lord and savior of the brown people
It seems to me that the Don is doing more to save "brown people's" lives than any other President ever. I doubt that is what motivates him but it is true. Less people dying on the border or on their trip to the border. Less people being trafficked. Moving the Gazans to a better living environment. Ridding the world of Hamas, Hezbollah and the Mullahs in Iran.
The fact of the matter is someone like V-dawg is so over the top bombastic and so comically and transparently intellectually dishonest that any forward thinking human being, regardless of which side of the debate you’re on, would only ever defend him cuz you find him to be a useful idiot, not cuz he makes great points
doubtful.
rather it sounds like you are making **** up to deflect from the fact that you supported Dems when they were bombing people, and then gloated when you thought Repubs would continue it. I will give you credit for consistency tho.
GENOCIDEEEEEEEEE
seems unlikely. unfortunately Israel has blocked all investigations and just said "trust us bro." same with the beheaded babies, and clotheslines full of babies, and fetuses in the garbage, and baby in the oven, and yes the mass rape. all lies. all hoaxes.
but hey, maybe this time they arent lying.
Just like on the Gaza side where hospitals (parking lots!) were getting "hit" and reported with total fabrication, it's clear that happened in the media on Oct 7th too (aka the 40 babies thing). The speed of Twitter spreads lots of garbage from who knows where, Victor posts that garbage in here non stop (like his mass graves story that was false).
But these are the dead children from Oct 7th that we 100% know about, with their stories. I'm not including 18-19+ year olds, or rocket attack dead. Just up close and personal, shot/stabbed/burned alive where you are 100% sure you are killing a child with your own two hands. Hopefully that puts some of the nonsense in here to rest.

Don’t worry, it’s obvious to the rest of us as well.
Hamas is achieving its goals. This should make you giddy Bill.

What's the Arabic translation of "Uncle Tom"?
This Jordan Peterson mf talking about "virtue signaling". Adopting all the language of the right will help the libs to take back control any day now 🙄
That sucks. Maybe their parents shouldn't have starved, imprisoned, raped, murdered and otherwise oppressed millions of Palestinians for decades on end!
"You reap what you sow"
guy who spent 10/7 cheering on the totally cool rapists and murderers of hamas itt,
he's persian, they dont do arabic, glad to help

A million apologies for not knowing this guy's specific ethnic background. I CAN'T BELIEVE I wasn't intimately familiar with the personal details of ol' whathisfaces's life. You really got me good there!
how dare you

Wouldn’t know, don’t speak it, spoiler alert white guy super friend, there are other languages in the Middle East

Lol
What have you done to help gazan lives besides be combative on a poker forum?
Same question to your useful idiot
This is hysterical:

"You reap what you sow"
Most of these dead children lived on a kibbutz. These folks quite often volunteered to take Gazans to Israeli hospitals and also helped them in many other ways. They had nothing to do with Israeli policy.
Get your facts straight before posting.
The Gazans have lived through 80 years of hell. Talk about reaping what you sow.
This is hysterical:
You're late to the game fella! There will be many arrests going forward and not just Israelis.
You still have time to delete this post.
Also, catch up from yesterday what has been written on this topic before embarrassing yourself. I feel bad that your gotcha moment was a miserable failure.

"You reap what you sow"
By and large, their parents in the South were part of a group of Israelis that believed in helping Gazans. Many were the biggest peaceniks in the entire country. They employed Gazans (who used the work placements to scout the attacks), went on missions to help Gazans, and did everything they could to advance a 2 state world (as they were largely the Israeli far left). Nova festival was a festival literally for peace for example.
But Karl at least you admit they're dead by the hand of Hamas. That's a step up from Victor.
Nevertheless, it's possible that once in a while, you educate yourself before typing. You never know how you might avoid embarrassing yourself that way.
