    The offense is not at the message, it’s that they were targeted to have it delivered.

      This is a genocide being committed right now and you want me to debate you about a message a group of people who eat traditionally Jewish food and may be Israeli, and giving these folks a message saying free Palestine is somehow offensive because they were targeted as potential Israeli citizens who can vote the terrorist Netanyahu out of office?

      What are you talking about?

          I guess I disagree.

          I wouldn’t give people notes like this I don’t think. But I don’t think it is racist. Supporting Israel is more racist than this.

            Okay.

            Guess I should start vocally denouncing the CCP and their Uyghur genocide before I get myself a Malatang.

                This person isn’t supporting genocide, you’re just acting like an asshole and then pretending that anyone who doesn’t like it is is pro-Israel.

                  Either way Israeli government is fucked up I can still be an asshole, and Netanyahu and the Israeli government can be terrorists… this is not an either or

                  And anyone who supports them is worse than an asshole

        buddy you’re doing that anyway. Conflating Israelis with Jews is wrong, yes. Targeting Jews to try and send a message to Israeli is wrong, yes. I know you feel like anything you like is justified since you believe in The Right Thing, but doing bad things for a good reason is still bad.

        and giving these folks a message saying free Palestine is somehow because they were targeted as potential Israeli citizens who can vote the terrorist Netanyahu out of office?

        oh wow you’re incoherent with indignation, what a surprise. Why are you wasting time? There’s a genocide RIGHT NOW
