    You know, I kept hearing about this a while back so I was curious and I looked it up. Turns out it never was “israel gave hamas money”. Turns out Israel was funding certain on the ground initiatives that later folded into Hamas. It’s never so black and white, is it? I strongly encourage people to read beyond the headlines of what they read online.

      Fuck me, I bet you believe Israel earnestly is trying to hit Hamas bases under every hospital and school. Or maybe that all 13,000 children they’ve killed were actually Hamas leaders.

      Without Hamas, they have no scapegoat to wipe out Palestine. It’s never black and white, is it?

          Yeah you’re just trying to shoo away the fact Israel funded a terrorist group as a scapegoat for a genocide. Didn’t think it was a stretch.

            Aaand we’re back to point #1. It’s like a circular merry go around. I debunk one thing, you pivot to another, I call you out, and you circle back to claim number one. Fun times.

              Yeah it’s almost like there’s a list of points that all culminate into the broader accusation. You didn’t debunk shit. You didn’t link shit. You made a claim, cited fuck all, and expected me to go “Oh okay, you’re right!”. My position is based off the behavior of Israel as it’s being reported. Yours is based off “some articles I read said so”. Provide something worth locking in on or fuck off.

                I merely pointed out your argumentation style. You never asked for sources. Why is it my job to teach you all media literacy. I’m happy to provide sources, but based on your rhetoric I can tell you’re already ingrained in your position and no amount of sources will change your position. It’s like Lemmy is half full of children that just repeat clickbait headlines and never actually read past the link titles. It’s exhausting.
