"There is no such thing as an innocent Palestinan, they have commited the crime of being an inferior race" Israel for some reason

[–] alt_xa_23@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

According to someone on the other site, no Palestinian is innocent because they've all been brainwashed since birth to hate and want to kill Israelis.

Couldnt you say the sane about Israelis when it comed to palestinans? Lol

I'm sure Israel killing tens of thousands of Palestinians, leveling their cities and evicting them from their ancestral homes had nothing to do with it /s

I know what you're going to say and yes I'm happy to see you.

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

You seem confused. People get called tankies for being in favor of the guys with the tanks, not the ones being blown up by them.

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

no mistake made; leftists are the only ones whose words and actions are one-in-the-same and they've always advocated for the isrealis in american tanks to stop blowing up the gazans and the people who hate this are the ones who call them tankies for it.

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I’m saying the reason people might get called a tankie is not because they support Gaza. In fact, I’ve never seen that accusation in relation to this conflict. Rather, it’s because tankies support countries like Israel in other conflicts. So it’s almost the exact opposite of what you say. Campism is the problem here because it forces them to defend the indefensible.

By the way, tankie is not just a pejorative for leftist. It’s a term created by leftists to criticize members of the movement who are perceived to have abandoned the core goal of human liberation that being a leftist has always been about. Maybe some liberals use it wrongly sometimes but it was never about them.

there must be a typo in here somewhere

then you've you've mistaken on what tankies are

[–] Carrolade@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Just fyi, the Israelis use their own Merkava main battle tanks, not the Abrams. If I remember right, it's more heavily armored, with a shorter cruising range.

Tank... go... vroom?

Israel: "There's no such thing as an innocent Palestinian."

[–] Rokin@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

I'll say this about isis and I'll only say it one time, or more times if nessisary. Isis is bad.
