Oh you guys are well known for your wall-of-text, pseudo-intellectual copypasta. I’m not reading a word of that nonsense. And no, this doesn’t mean you won- it just means you’re not wasting my time with your bullshit.
And again, the simple fact that you stoop to accusations of gEnOciDe sUpPorT to help bail you out of a disagreement means you have no clue what you’re taking about.
Seriously, if the admins made a rule to ban people for false accusations, the entire leftist population of lemmy would disappear.
Thanks for playing, but you’re dismissed.
Maybe if you actually engaged with the sources you'd think differently, instead of writing them off because they might make you feel uncomfortable

“A Textbook Case of Genocide”: Israeli Holocaust Scholar Raz Segal Decries Israel’s Assault on Gaza
800+ Legal Scholars Say Israel May Be Perpetrating 'Crime of Genocide' in Gaza
Law for Palestine Releases Database with 500+ Instances of Israeli Incitement to Genocide – Continuously Updated

I thought I explained to you already, that the moment you knowingly falsely accused people including myself- of supporting genocide, that you lost every bit of respect or attention I would have for anything you have to say.
You’ve got nothing bud. Learn from this and stop with the bullshit accusations. If the mods banned for accusations of genocide, the entire population of leftist would disappear from lemmy.
Keep posting your YouTube videos and propaganda. I’m not looking at, reading, or watching any of it.
I never said you support genocide. You are defending the US sending weapons to one, while denying that it is one.
I'm firmly anti-genocide. I'm against any group of people committing genocide against any other group of people.
If you consider human rights organizations, genocide scholars, multiple Israeli Historians, and multiple western and Israeli News sources propaganda, sure.
Again, you hide behind your false accusations to keep others on the defensive. I know exactly how your type works.
Your bullshit accusations fall flat when pressed up against reality. And if I tried to call you out on it and validate any of it- there’ll be a wall of pseudo-intellectual bullshit text and more YouTube links- all the while completely dodging the fact that you have no evidence to support that ANYONE actually supports genocide.
And I stand firm on my own accusation that you probably hand no idea where Palestine was a year and a half ago.
So spare me the bullshit. I’m not buying it.
Do better and stop accusing people of shit they’re not doing.
Ok, I'm sorry I falsely accused you.
Which source do you think is bullshit? I don't understand
Nope. That’s not how this works. Learn from this and stop doing it to others. It’s bad-faith and to some, incredibly insulting.
Move forward and do better. You might find some good discussions ahead.
Take care.
Lol, ok. You just called everything bullshit for no reason. I think you're right, take care
So you had a chance to walk away from this on a good note. But you instead chose to prove your little apology was complete bullshit.
I was right to not bother with your pseudo intellect bullshit. You’re out of gas bud.
Thanks for playing, but you lose.
