      I can find you a few examples if you feel the need to be depressed at the state of humanity.

        No you literally can’t. You’re dreaming them up.

              “The IDF is committing a literal genocide”

              “Go suck off the IDF on Reddit!”

              I didn’t realize asserting that the IDF was committing genocide was praise in your mind.

                Your meme is about the genocide being the fault of imaginary tankies that supposedly love Hamas killing civilians, or am I not interpreting it correctly?

                  Not interpreting it correctly. The meme is suggesting that the apologia for Hamas’s war crimes and goals by tankies is actually damaging to the Palestinian cause here in the West.

                  The ongoing genocide is not addressed directly by the meme. The burning town is simply part of the meme template which is used for self-defeating and self-congratulatory actions.

                    If that was not your intention then I apologize for insulting you, I have deleted that comment.

                    While I agree with your comment that glorifying the killing of civilians is bad, I haven’t actually seen anyone doing it. Only screenshot these types of comments, which are are always completely downvoted into the ground, making it seem like a false flag.

                    It seems like it’s just used as a deflection from IDF apologists about how the rest of the world seems to be fine with Hamas killing civilians
