[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]

Yeah, it is interesting that none of the posters that were pretending to be concerned about the hostages seem too upset about Israel violating the ceasefire. Unfortunately it seems like continuing the genocide is more important than saving the hostages for both the Israeli government and many posters in this thread.
It seems pretty clear the Israel govt has taken the stance from the beginning that they're willing to trade the hostage's lives in exchange for the defeat of Hamas and a future of no more hostages being taken again. There was that hostage rescue last year where Israeli citizens were being held in Gaza apartments, so the Israeli govt is aware all hostages are/were not safely stashed in Hamas tunnels and the bombing continued. They're fighting an enemy that is willing to sacrifice their civilian population and I guess they feel they need to somewhat match the same level of commitment to be successful. There are plenty of citizens, including freed hostages, that are vocally against this strategy but Bibi and company are running the show and think this is going to be some kind of final showdown. At least for a generation or two.
There is what ?
A 50-1 ratio of Jews vs the Palestinians killed ?
Let’s say 50% of them are civilians .
If that isn’t eradicating what is your ratio that is unacceptable ?
Oh wait , my mistake, each Jews are easily worth 25 life from Gaza .
So yeah I’m sorry , I’ll wait at least around a ratio of 100-1 before using the word eradicating …..
Only radical believe killing (I should say “winning so much “ ) that efficiently should still be qualified as defensive measures….
P$: I warn them (to go where ex
Who cares what the ratio of people killed is? The Israelis live next to a bunch of homicidal maniacs who have made it known that they want to kill all of the Jews. They have fired rockets and thrown rocks and blown up busses etc for many years. Then they attack on Oct 7th with the goal of killing as many Israelis as possible and with the hopes that 30k Hezbollah terrorists from the north attack and they meet in the middle. This tacit support of Hamas from the beta virtue signaling liberals needs to stop. Israel has every right to take care of this security threat once and for all.
Evil genociding bastards
Bibi is right. Actually I think there should be way more targets. The "evil genocidal bastards" are the ones getting pummeled in Gaza.
BTW do you have a recording of this conversation? You tend to believe everything you read that supports your racist narrative.
tHeY hAvE THroWn RoCks
Man fuck you and your family and everything you hold dear
Release the hostages like you agreed or we will end the ceasefire which was conditioned on you releasing the hostages
if it was as explicit of a genocidal statement as you are pretending it is you wouldn’t have to carve it up or make up a paraphrase completely wholecloth.
His comments are self evident. I hadn't realized you are a sophist.
I don't agree with your numbers but yeah, when people break out of a concentration camp I blame those who put them in it.
First, it's not a concentration camp. Go ahead and google the holocaust and see what a real concentration camp is and then hopefully come back and apologize to our Jewish community. Second, however you want to describe their situation they put themselves there. There has never been a group of people who have been a "victim" for as long as these people. Throughout history there have been people who have gone through tough situations but eventually dug themselves out of it and eventually prospered. Not these people. Do you wanna know who they can learn from? The Jews. Six million killed in the holocaust and many persecuted throughout Europe. Somehow through all of that they have not only survived as a people, they have thrived. They contribute to the world with their knowledge and innovation. What exactly have the "Palestinian's" contributed?
WhEn ThEy StArT TyPiNg LiKe ThIs you know they are ****ed lol. Send em back to Twitter.
Yep! That is unhinged behavior. I go easy on folks like this because I have a feeling there is something going on behind the scenes to manifest posts like this.
Notice how he cherry picked my post and only mentioned throwing rocks.
There is absolutely no reasonable human being that in the context of what is happening that would say ‘wahhhhh you throw rocks’ and should be taken seriously
And if you’re going to defend that bumass tripe then ya, fuck you too

The holocaust isn’t the only occurrence of concentration camps, dummy, it wasn’t even the first, and they don’t all look like that. Your ignorance on display as usual.

Another 50k post poster who apparently lives to post here but can’t muster up a single intelligible point.

Will you please calm down? I just want to have a dialogue with you. How are we ever going to figure this out if we can't control our emotions?
I’m not sure but it looks like selective outrage. He gets mad about you mentioning throwing rocks but forgets to get mad about the rapes, suicide bombings, bus bombings, knife attacks, missile attacks, and so on. I’m probably missing some things as I know they get creative with ways to kill people.

Boom, roasted

I think these people wake up outraged and angry. Some even immediately get out of bed and google pictures of dead kids.
I think mentioning just the throwing rocks part is a way to rationalize the support for people who have done far worse. Obviously he's not gonna come in here and say "Big deal so they raped and murdered some babies".
Beyond fucking pathetic but entirely unsurprising that ‘they’re throwing rocks!’ is a bridge too far for you bloodlusting cockgobblers
Anyway, from the bottom of my heart you and mongoloid can go fuck yourselves. Deuces
I see you guys had the pleasure to meet stoprainman. A hint: he is not going to argue in good faith at all, so you save time by not arguing with him about anything.

Also, notice the name calling from their side. This helps us to understand why the Israelis do what they do and how they do it. It's difficult to negotiate with folks who are simply acting on their emotions. It's tough to negotiate with folks who are unwilling to accept what their side has done.
Fascinating.
