Well, it is the next holocaust, so it makes sense that people are discussing it at length. It’ll probably be one of the biggest topics future history lessons of this era will cover, which is saying something, considering how fucked up this era is.
Think of how much people talk about 9/11, then realize that well over 10 times as many people have been murdered so far in Gaza. OP is doing everything they can to draw awareness to a tragedy - that’s a good thing.
Imagine if people had been more willing to call out the terrible practices of Nazi Germany, instead of just keeping their heads down and trying to convince themselves that it’s someone else’s problem that they have no need to concern themselves over.
Posting 4-5 times every day on a website isn’t something to be lauded. I mean even if that’s all they are doing, which it’s not.
I’ve witnessed this user claim repeatedly that anyone who challenges them at all is a Zionist, supports/loves genocide, etc.
The real issue is that they are constantly encouraging people to vote against Democrats, which shows they aren’t sincere, since anyone can see that would only help trump, who explicitly wants to help Netanyahu exterminate Palestinians
If all they were doing was posting true articles about Israel that would be fine. Obsessive but fine. It’s not all they are doing. For example:
Posting as much as you can about something that everyone needs to be acutely aware of, regardless of how “icky” it makes them feel is absolutely something to be lauded. I admit that I didn’t know the other stuff about OP, but the fact of the matter is that you didn’t complain about ragebaiting on a ragebaiting post, you complained about someone talking too much about an ongoing holocaust on a post that specifically focuses on the ongoing holocaust. If you want to complain about the other less-exemplary facets of this user, feel free to do so on a post that isn’t pointedly focusing on the - and I repeat - ongoing holocaust.
You aren’t interested in understanding. You are interested in the same shit as op: "making a point"by accusing people of essentially being Nazis for daring to challenge you. If you read that thread you will see a lot of people have noticed what this fuck is up to. And rage baiting is only part of it
Edit: I re read and the Nazi part of my sentence was not entirely accurate. But I do think it’s unfair to assume I’m trying to stop information about Israel from flowing just because of where I commented about the user
I never once accused you of being a Nazi, nor did I allude to doing so. What I did accuse you of was being just like the German citizens during Nazi Germany, who closed their eyes and plugged their ears while their fellow human beings were being slaughtered.
You can admit to not having the power to stop a holocaust, but don’t you dare think that you deserve the luxury of ignoring it. It needs to be on everyone’s minds every day, if for no other reason than to be thankful that they were fortunate enough to not have been born into the group of people being arbitrarily culled.
The only reason you’re not being murdered - wondering why nobody helped, nobody cared - is because you aren’t among that group. The least you can do is continue to keep it in your mind while it’s still happening.
So, I just edited my comment and then saw this one. Dude you don’t need to lecture me about this. I never once had an issue with the actual content in this particular post. I have an issue with this user because they are doing bad things. I’ve tried to make that clear but you won’t hear it. Not on me.
You can scroll past these posts, or even block them I’ll bet. Stop complaining that the news of an ongoing genocide is insignificantly inconvenient for you and implying that it’s something everyone else should care about, it’s weird and embarrassing.
Exactly. If you don’t know why I’m saying that, you haven’t been witnessing Linkerbaan’s habits over the last year like I have. They have accused me, and dozens of other people that I saw myself, of supporting or loving genocide. Typically when they do that, the person said nothing any more than “yeah but trump would be worse than Biden”. Linkerbaan does not argue in good faith.
Especially by those trying to influence the election in America, right?
I don’t need anyone else to lecture me about how I supposedly shouldn’t ever challenge this motherfucker. You all either actively ignore what they are doing or you agree with their accelerationism.
I don’t usually meddle in US politics (am from europe), but I endorse kamala over trump, obviously.
I am not saying that the palestinian genocide is bad and therefore we must stop voting for liberals; quite the opposite: We must vote for liberals because if trump wins, things won’t be ten times worse, they’ll be 1000 times worse.
Well, you either didn’t read that post I linked where several people were discussing the shitty things OP often does, or those shitty things did not concern you.
Since you didn’t mention any of that and only seem concerned with defending something I never attacked (the particular message in the post), it doesn’t really seem there’s a reason to think you care about my message here. And given the dogpiling ITT it seems like practically no one cared about the point I was making (or the evidence for it) and instead chose to assume I’m a staunch zionist or something.
okok sorry maybe I misread; please don’t be so butthurt about it (no offense)
I care about palestinians because they are people and deserve to be treated as people, instead they are treated like cattle in a slaughterhouse. That has nothing to do with OP or you, it’s just my opinion on palestine. That’s why I said “palestine deserves attention”.
I don’t know what OP has done or sth. If they put forward a relatable message, I’m going to listen to it, no matter what unhinged bullshit they may or may not have said earlier. I don’t like ad-hominem attacks in general much.
If I’m right about Lemmy at all, it’s only a matter of time before you get banned from instances. But maybe I’m wrong. Maybe this is just hipster-Reddit and barely anyone cares that what you’re doing here is not what you pretend to be doing here.
The day has barely started and that’s already three posts on the topic today.
Edit: anyone who wants to defend this troll, please see this thread. They are not coming to Lemmy in good faith: https://lemmy.world/post/18634532

Just look at the user’s post history if you actually want to understand what I’m saying

I guess you’re arguing in bad faith too. Sure you wanna miss an opportunity to claim that I love genocide?
Yikes.

And so what is the point of your comment? Who was it for? I’ll refrain from making a guess and you can tell me what upset you so about these posts.
Good. Palestine deserves attention.
Especially by those trying to influence the election in America, right?
I don’t need anyone else to lecture me about how I supposedly shouldn’t ever challenge this motherfucker. You all either actively ignore what they are doing or you agree with their accelerationism.
wtf are you talking about?
I don’t usually meddle in US politics (am from europe), but I endorse kamala over trump, obviously.
I am not saying that the palestinian genocide is bad and therefore we must stop voting for liberals; quite the opposite: We must vote for liberals because if trump wins, things won’t be ten times worse, they’ll be 1000 times worse.
We both know you don’t care
oh in fact I do care, even though I can’t prove it to you.
what makes you think that I don’t?
Well, you either didn’t read that post I linked where several people were discussing the shitty things OP often does, or those shitty things did not concern you.

The day has barely started and that’s already three comments harassing users on a post about israel committing Genocide.
A lot of projection going on about bad faith arguments as usual.

You aggressively want to avoid understanding a fucking thing so stay out of my replies or I will consider it harassment.
