I'm not trying to beat you into submission.

I'm trying to make sure that when someone sees a comment of yours trying to deny genocide, that someone sees evidence immediately that you are factually wrong.

Of course, I know you're paying in bad faith, but here I just have you exactly what you asked for, and yet, you just move the topic of conversation. Good job, sophist.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize accusing people of being paid genocide deniers was the behavior of somebody not attempting to silence the opposition.

If you can't present your case without bad faith tactics, you clearly don't have a case or you morally are not the person to be presenting it.

I literally have with the links you requested, implying I was lying if I didn't.

You ignored that. Do you recognize now that the ICJ has ruled that Israel is plausibly committing genocide, or is the Hague and NPR antisemitic?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Plausible in the ICJ's context means reasonable to inquire into. Plausible in your case means certainly happening no inquiry required.

But your case so far stands solely on changing the term genocide to just mean war crimes and the term plausible to mean certainly.

I'm not sure that's the correct thing to do in the situation.

Tell that to the 10000, minimum, murdered children, you blood thirsty fuck.

I know that they are your last priority.

You've made it clear your first priority is defending the nation that murdered them that has a leader literally calling them Amaleks, a tribe that God ordered to be slain to the last women and child.

Go wash the blood off your sophistry somewhere else.

EDIT: Plausible means plausible. You're literally comparing anyone who uses the word Genocide to Hitler. That implies that someone making that comparison is doing something so implausible that the only explanation is antisemitism. Instead of, you know, believing their lying eyes.

You're a disgusting propagandist. And you're not very good at it, either.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

So you are lying on behalf of the children?

Look, I think your heart is in the right place, but being an inept soldier in a propaganda war directed at western leftists.isn't actually accomplishing anything in this situation.

I'm sure it makes you feel amazing to be a part of though.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The only person lying here is you.

And also, you took the insults I had for you in my last message and changed the wording a bit. This isn't your homework, be more original.

How are insults helping the Palestinian children?
