Feels like you’re making a straw man argument. Who speaks English, is on Fedi and actually supports Hamas? The IDF being evil doesn’t make Hamas good either.
Ceasefire now.
End apartheid.
Excuse me.
But brutally raping and sexually assaulting women, no matter from which region, religion or race, is not a straw man argument.
It is an emergency for women all around the world.
My argument is what this meme says, and nothing else.
Every woman who’s slightly near Hamas affiliated people, is in life danger, also women in Gaza.
It’s a straw man when you invent an opponent.
Who on Lemmy is supporting Hamas?

Edit: linked lost, here’s a quote:
I agree with the other posters. The IDF is doing evil shit all around. They need to face resistance, and there are other groups beside Hamas doing so. One emergency doesn’t cancel out the others. Free Palestine.
Got it. No one here supports Hamas, but you wanted to have an outrage party by yourself.
Tha comment I linked to justifies that Palestinians allowed to take what ever action, I including setting up a terror organization called Hamas and justifies their actions of brutally raping and sexually assaulting women.
Hence, your straw man argument is false.
No woman should be raped.
it doesn’t say anything like that
Text of the comment you linked…
Fuck Israel, they need to end the apartheid, but that does not mean I support terrorism or sexual assault. You dense cabbage
You are either someone who struggles with basic English comprehension, which seem unlikely due to your other replies, or you are just making shit up that does not exist.
The linked lost, I fixed it with a quote.
Nobody here supports Hamas
This is false.
There are a lot of people who are afraid to say they support Hamas, because they know that this is something to be ashamed of, and might be illegal in their area.
And according to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamas (reduced for TL;DR):
- Allies
- State allies:
- Afghanistan
- Algeria
- Iran
- North Korea
- Qatar
- Syria (until 2011, again since 2022)
- Turkey (partly)
- Venezuela
- Non-state allies:
- Hezbollah
- Islamic Jihad
- State allies:
I’m really confused by everything you’ve said so far.
Are you comparing Lemmy to religious, dictatorial ethnostates, or are you agreeing with the rest of us that we don’t like Hamas?
I agree with you that you don’t like Hamas, however there are people here who supports it (I quote because link is broken):
I agree with the other posters. The IDF is doing evil shit all around. They need to face resistance, and there are other groups beside Hamas doing so. One emergency doesn’t cancel out the others. Free Palestine.
