I’d describe myself as politically “center-left” and I go on the streets against the far-right in my country… Not “left” enough for the lemmy community hexbear(.)net, I guess, which banned me for “facism”.

“Advertisement”: Go to hexbear(.)net if you want to be able to say “Death to Israel” or “The situation in Gaza is like the holocaust” without getting banned. No, you even get a lot of likes and no one will say anything against that. No one will share arguments against yours. Why? Because those people will instead get banned.

At least, I have an explanation now… There is no one arguing against what is posted there, because everyone who tries, is getting banned.

    it has been decades.

    Yes it has, however, not all of the attempts at changing the situation were violent, most of the violence did come from Israel, but peaceful demonstrations and waiting didn’t help Gaza and Palestinians trapped in there. You know why?

    Because Israel isn’t going anywhere, their government won’t just magically change their mind, so just sitting there praying that it will end someday – won’t help. That’s why a violent and armed response was given to Israel.

    Saying:

    There have been multiple attempts to attack Israel and the consequence was always death.

    Is implying that people need to give up and not fight for their freedom. People are dying slowly but steadily? Well if you fight your situation, then a lot more will die, so just sit there, relax and enjoy the view of your cities drowning in poverty, without electricity or enough food to get through the day.

    If you really wanted this to end, you wouldn’t say:

    IMO, the cycle needs to be broken. And IMO, this works only with government changes in both countries.

    Because it is not possible. It’s not a cycle of violence that needs to be broken, but the entire system that enables violence against another group of people. How can you break a cycle of violence that you DIDN’T START? How can YOU change when YOU are the victim?

    This comment seems to be pro-peace and pacifistic, but it’s just a facade. In reality it defends the status quo of imperialistic and racist government having total control of the occupied land of another country, protecting their right to do anything they want with people living there because the alternative:

    was always death.
