Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    What do you think about the ethnic cleansing that Israel is doing? Surely it should be obvious that the apartheid they are carrying out is orders of magnitude worse. They’ve imprisoned millions of people in bantustans and driven them to abject poverty through severe restrictions. The death count for Palestinians is two orders of magnitude higher than that for Israelis.

    What israel is doing is literally genocide as legally defined by over 150 countries.

    This doesn’t excuse any bad behavior by Hamas but to characterize them as the main problem is a gross mischaracterization of reality.

      There can’t be any negotiations for peace as long as Hamas is in power. That is the main problem.

      You can try to hand wave away the fact that part of Palestine is under fascist rule because you don’t actually give a shit about Palestinians that are suffering under that rule. Too many people care more about killing Jews that they are willing to have Palestinians suffer to attempt to achieve that. A lot of oil money goes to prop up fascists that fire rockets at Israeli citizens, and a lot of people (including most of the left) just look the other way because… well why is that?

        You missed my point. I’m saying the leadership are fascists on both sides. You can’t just blame one side.
