I wouldn't say it was a raging argument, but I had a family member "both sides" Gaza. They stopped responding when I asked why Isn'trael was also conducting operations in West Bank.

    Yesterday I had a liberal respond to me with "We should be careful about what we say about countries we don't live in." when I called Israel a settler-colonial fundamentalist religious ethnonationalist apartheid state. This person is the one who brought up the conflict (it was an old childhood friend who claimed to be a leftist) and said my takes on Israel were "Left Qanon"

    Cut a lib etc etc etc
