Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
“You Muslims must die!”
Wadea Al-Fayoume a 6 year old Palestinian American boy was just stabbed to death in Illinois by his landlord shouting these words. His mom Hanaan was stabbed as well and in critical condition.
i feel thats a sensible statement. there are good and bad people on both sides
"The people living in concentration camps started it. Bigotry against Muslims and Jews is all their fault."
He's also implying that the way to end this bigotry is to complete the genocide against Palestine, since they're the ones to blame for creating and spreading this prejudice. How is it sensible to use the body of a Palestinian boy to advocate killing more Palestinians?
This is EXACTLY the same as bringing up "gangs" after a black child is lynched. Or bringing up "bankers" after a Jewish child is murdered.
It's just invoking a vague concept (in this case, "Hamas") that scares all the white people due to being "bad thing" and the only relation to the situation at hand is the race of the victim (and the frothing racism of the perpetrator). It's victim blaming.
Bringing up Hamas here is almost unbelievably racist, except that there is no level of racism I wouldn't believe from Homeland Security.
Yeah there are. But I’m more angry about the people who invited this violence onto their own population and have institutional support that results in the murder of a boy thousands of miles away.
