Jesus was a real man even atheist historians agree with it.

I don't think so. It seems that many historians thinks that there are not evidence of the existence of Jesus outside biblical documents.

Here you can find an in-deep response on r/AskHistorians about it.

Other peoples are shedding their blood to win the rights we have. When we send our greetings from here, and from all the conferences and the places where they may be held, to the heroic peoples of Vietnam, Laos, so-called Portuguese Guinea, South Africa, or Palestine — to all exploited countries fighting for their emancipation — we must simultaneously extend our voice of friendship, our hand and our encouragement, to our fraternal peoples in Venezuela, Guatemala and Colombia, who today, arms in hand, are resolutely saying “No!” to the imperialist enemy.

The corpse of Francisco Franco was moved out of the Valle de los Caídos in 2019. The transfer was carried out with the honors of a head of state 🤢🤮.

At least 24 journalists have been killed since October 7, most of them by the IOF. Israel does not want witnesses to the genocide it wants to commit and is committing in Gaza.

It's quite evident that Israel's goal is the eradication of Palestinians

Yes. Why is this post downvoted?

I guess you can sidestep this by not recognizing the existence of Israel as a legitimate nation-state?

Nops :-( A state it's a political construct, as national identity is a social construct. The recognition could be used against the state, but not against the national identity.

But what I was trying to point out was the false dichotomy presented: Israel is genocidal and so is Hamas.

Israel has the material conditions to commit genocide, Hamas does not. At most, Hamas could commit massacres in some settlements, which I don't see it fits the definition of genocide.

If we ignore that fact, we can use the political program of Hamas, but it also don't call for a genocide of jews or Israelians, even seems that they could reluctantly accept a 2-state solution.

The convention about genocide don't protect people that share a ideology (i.e. Zionism)

Also, the Hamas goals are not genocidal per se:

  1. The Islamic Resistance Movement “Hamas” is a Palestinian Islamic national liberation and resistance movement. Its goal is to liberate Palestine and confront the Zionist project. Its frame of reference is Islam, which determines its principles, objectives and means.

Eric Garner Murdered by NYPD (2014)

On this day in 2014, Eric Garner was murdered by the NYPD, choked to death after police suspected him of selling loose cigarettes. Garner said "I can't breathe" 11 times before dying. The man who filmed his death was poisoned in prison.

Eric Garner (1970 - 2014) was a former horticulturist at the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, father of six, and grandfather of three. On July 17th, 2014, was approached by Justin D'Amico, a plainclothes officer, in front of a beauty supply store in Tompkinsville, Staten Island. D'Amico suspected Garner of selling loose cigarettes.

Garner stated "Every time you see me, you want to mess with me. I'm tired of it. It stops today...I'm minding my business, officer, I'm minding my business. Please just leave me alone. I told you the last time, please just leave me alone."

After refusing to be handcuffed, 29-year old officer Daniel Pantaleo put Garner in an ultimately fatal chokehold. Despite Garner stating "I can't breathe" eleven times before losing consciousness, the several officers on scene did not come to his aid.

Ramsey Orta, a member of Copwatch, filmed the incident. Following a campaign of police harassment after the video went viral, he was arrested on weapons charges.

Before being imprisoned in Rikers, Orta claims a cop told him he'd be better off killing himself before being jailed. While in prison, Orta was poisoned by prison staff and at one point only ate food that his wife brought him. In May 2020, Orta was released from Groveland Correctional Facility.

Garner's death was protested internationally and became one of many police killings protested within the Black Lives Matter movement. Some perpetrators of violence against police have cited Garner's murder as a motive.

A grand jury elected to not indict Pantaleo on December 3rd, 2014. After the decision, Garner's widow was asked whether she accepted Pantaleo's condolences. She replied: "Hell, no! The time for remorse would have been when my husband was yelling to breathe...No, I don't accept his apology. No, I could care less about his condolences...He's still working. He's still getting a paycheck. He's still feeding his kids, when my husband is six feet under and I'm looking for a way to feed my kids now."

An NYPD disciplinary hearing regarding Pantaleo's treatment of Garner was held in the summer of 2019, and Pantaleo was fired on August 19th, more than five years after the murder took place.
