Oh, and apparently people only support Palestine because "They're losing." And "It doesn't matter whose wrong or right they're both just fighting for survival. Who cares about supporting either of them."

Other highlight "Palestine has homophobia built into it's law. Like Russia." Said by a cis person too lmao

Hahahaha fuck me I wish I had the energy and skill to school people like this but I just can't be bothered hahaha I'm so tired.

"Both sides bad" types are even more insufferable than out Zionists sometimes.

Honestly, for those kinds of people there are two main phrases to use - "what the fuck are you talking about/are you fucking stupid" and "what the fuck is wrong with you". You're not talking to informed individuals who have thought deeply on the issue, you're talking to idiots who haven't paid any attention then started making stuff up to justify their ignorance once it moved back to the centre of the news cycle. They aren't going to start paying attention just because you explained what's happening to them, so make them feel stupid, and bad for being stupid.
