        Nah I’ve done internet arguments since like 2001 back on overclockers australia and whirlpool and about 10 years ago decided that it’s mainly a waste of time, so I have a hard line with myself not to carry these arguments on, really not that interested in it anymore, I avoided looking at this thread 100 times but it got me on the 101st (that’s my fault)

        I really wish coding gave the same dopamine spikes as arguing on the internet did… (anyway, back to coding)

          Why would you want to carry on arguments wherein you’re defending genocide. That’s what I don’t understand. What do you get out of that?

            Why would you want to carry on arguments

            Because I get a lot more entertainment out of arguing instead of agreeing? Isn’t this common?

            If you want me to just agree with you feel free to post some anti russia pro ukraine/pro west threads and I’ll give you a solid uptoot and be on my way

              So you support people defending their home when it’s Ukraine, but not when it’s Palestinians? What’s the difference?

              You’re no better than the tankies whose support is the reverse of yours. They support aggressive imperialism in eastern Europe, you support it in the Middle East. It’s an ideological nonsense position.

              Also

              I get a lot more entertainment out of arguing instead of agreeing [with genocide]

              Are you seriously just defending genocide because it’s fun? That’s sick. You’re not well.

                You noticed I left out the genocide mention but didn’t pickup on why, you are free to read my original response to you back at the beginning

                Anyway detaching from this whole thread now

      have cited statements by senior Israeli officials that may indicate an “intent to destroy” Gaza’s population in whole or in part, a necessary condition for the legal threshold of genocide to be met

      Yikes. You somehow think that statement plays in your favour‽ Intent is a necessary legal prerequisite to genocide. But it’s not sufficient. You have to actually effect the death, relocation, or separation from their culture of a significant percentage of the targeted group. No reasonable person could claim that Hamas has done that, even if they may have the desire to do so.

      This is what the whole area would look like if Hamas had their way

      You mean Hamas, the militant organisation that was backed by Netanyahu specifically because Israel wanted to destabilise Palestine? That Hamas?

      If Hamas wants less Palestinian deaths they are free to fight the IDF on the battlefield and prevent their citizens from dying instead of hiding in schools, hospitals, homes and cafes

      Ooh. Love it. “It’s not war crimes because that child was Hamas. Totally. We swear.” Fuck off with that bullshit. You are an evil fucking bastard, trying to justify the wholesale slaughter of thousands of people whose only “crime” was pushing back against decades of severe oppression.
