"Imaginary tankies"
Don't you have some Hamas atrocities to play apologist for or something?
Damn you got me here let me correct my previous comment
Libs and bringing up Hamas literally everywhere name a better combo.
Linkerbaan and apologizing for authoritarian garbage mk II.
Fin.
I don't respect the opinions of people who think that killing two civilians for every soldier killed is the most precise and civilian-friendly irregular anticolonial military movement in history.
Not surprising from libs that deny colonial war crimes and paint a beautiful colonial rainbow over all of history.
Libs and tankies, what's the difference anymore?
What colonial war crimes have I denied? Go ahead. Quote me if you like. Thanks, by the way, for not disputing your support of murdering two civilians for each soldier; my opinion of you can't get much lower, but it would have been poor form to lie about being a supporter of murder by wannabe-genocidaires.
You lot rely on spewing enough bullshit that some of it will go uncontested and be considered by observers as the actual facts. Whenever called out, you have nothing but more obfuscation and JAQing off to answer with.
You keep making fun of it while failing to mention that colonial resistance that you claim was so peaceful and took great care to distinguish between colonists and militants.
Of course you dont need to do that because evidence is not necessary for libs that just make everything up. You fail to address a single point many times over and proceed to blame someone for "running away" the irony is not lost here.
I literally never claimed that colonial resistance was peaceful. Feel free to quote me, if you genuinely think as much.
Don't worry - I know you can't substantiate your lies.
Whoops you forgot the other part of the sentence next to the "peaceful" stuff.
How about you substantiate your claim instead of trying to dance around it hoping that pretending you can play the semantics card?
Glad you're conceding the point.
Aha, and here it comes out. Running defense for genocidal apartheid ethnostate israel by saying "b-b-b-but tankies!! b-b-b-but china!!!" You gotta work on your hasbara game, bro.
lmao
I'm anti-Israel, but I doubt you care. Throw enough bullshit and some of it will stick, right?
Wow, you sound like a tankie when asked about Russian/Chinese imperialism.
Classic.
I didn't realize that all those dead civilians on October 7th were IDF propaganda. Wow. Really convincing crisis actors they got.
What would you say if someone called October 7th a targeted and precise military operation and that 2 civilians killed for each Israeli soldier killed was actually a great ratio?
Because I can cite the very person I'm lambasting here saying that. I have receipts, if you're genuinely interested enough for me to go back through my comments and grab them.
Fuck man, I have called for the removal of all aid from Israel. I've been calling for that since BEFORE October 7th, even, because I recognized a genocide when I see one. I've called our support for Israel a stain on our (US) collective soul. I've called the Israeli ethnostate an apartheid regime.
How the fuck is calling someone out for Hamas apologia, in that context, creating a strawman OR ignoring US unconditional support? The very fucking meme I posted and whose comment thread you are commenting in suggests the ongoing offensive as part of a genocide.
How much more obvious do I have to make it?
Your meme indicates otherwise.
~~Ah, so the CCP is the true leftist organization, since that's the only clearly identified 'left' object in the meme other than the tankie themself. Critical support for autocracy, anti-democracy, genocide, and capitalist billionaires with Chinese characteristics!~~
EDIT: I responded in my inbox, I thought this was a response to the "There are plenty of people left of me" comment I made.
The meme indicates that Israel is committing genocide, so I'm not really sure how the fuck you find it pro-Israel.
Your meme says that opposition to Netanyahu's genocide comes from CCP-loving tankies.
No. It really doesn't. It says tankies can see one genocide and not another. You can try to bootlick your way out of that all you want, but I can quote myself on Lemmy calling the current Palestinian situation genocide many, many times.
According to your meme, you're a tankie, then.
It's not often I find an actual problem with someone's basic logic.
Do you have trouble with those "All pugs are dogs, but not all dogs are pugs" style statements they quiz first-graders on?
Same guy. Same hat.
Lord.
Weeeee woooooo weeeeee woooo
Meme police here, who called for assistance?!
We have had reports of emotional damage against a soft, sad tankie. Don't tell me it's another case of reality smacking the cheeks of a delusional tankie. The department's overrun with such calls.
👮👮👮🚨🚓🚓🚔
This meme is DISGUSTING, you offended everyone. Waaah.
