    A crazy fucking comment, right? Eh. I tried to make a point about not judging people before you know their history, but did so very badly, I guess. Should I delete the comment? What do you think?

      No, don’t dirty delete just because you got downvotes. Instead open your mind to the replies and try to understand why you got so many (hint: It’s because you were trying to excuse a violent assault, by an obviously hateful person, using lies promoted by an army that’s currently committing genocide).

        Hahaha no, you should let your comment stand. I did not try to excuse his actions, that guy was acting like an asshole, but I did want people not to judge someone - which, in a court of law, only happens after consideration of someone’s circumstances.

        Hamas’ horrible and violent acts, however, are not lies promoted by any army. Does the Israeli army promote lies? Probably. But not that terrorist organizations are despicable, that doesn’t need to be lied about.

          Sure, crazy video, but you don’t know whether his girlfriend wasn’t raped and killed by Hamas on October 7th last year.

          This is saying “hey don’t judge this guy attacking random unicef workers unconnected to the people he hates while spewing hate. He might be having a hard time”.

          You display no empathy for the people experiencing this assault, only for its perpetrator. Your further opinions regarding genocide can be inferred from there.

      Thing is, adults, like properly emotionally mature people, don’t attack random people on the street because they’re volunteering to raise funds for an absolutely gigantic organisation to help people. I used to work for a Croatian man and his brother in law. They fought in the Bosnian conflict, and both ended up working for a series of mercenary outfits after. The levels of PTSD in these guys was…honestly…kinda fucked. I worked with them for the better part of 10 years. Met as many of their families that survived. They were adult enough to hire a few Bosnian guys as subcontract, we’d go for drinks end of the week. And these Bosnian guys were in some of the same battles as my boss and his BiL, literally trying to kill each other. What the fuck did those UNICEF people do to fucknuts? Exist? Fuck him.
