Dear Swifties:

The radical theocratic terrorists that targeted the Taylor Swift concert are functionally the same people that want to destroy Israel.

The ideology is the same. The willingness to kill civilians is the same. The goal is the same.

When you support Hamas, you’re supporting the same people that wanted to assassinate Taylor Swift and her fans.

@reverius42 @briannawu I think she means “condemn genocide in Palestine”, which is equivalent to “support Hamas” in her somewhat twisted world view.

@Colman @reverius42 it’s not a genocide, it’s just war.

@briannawu @reverius42 it’s genocide. One for which they’ve been laying groundwork for a long time. Fundamentalist ethnic/religious nationalists are all the same.

@Colman nope. Actually some of the lowest civilian death ratios for any urban conflict in history. And this is for a war they didn’t start.

@briannawu @Colman

"Lowest civilian death ratio” compared with WHAT? A ratio has two elements. The Palestinian civilians (who multiple Israeli government officials have spoken of wanting to kill more of or drive out completely — both of which are definitionally genocidal) compared with WHO?

Hamas attacked Israel.

Hamas claimed and was estimated to have tens of thousands of fighters.

Hamas had and fired many thousands of rockets at Israel.

And so many people still don't understand (or just ignore) that is a two-sided war, with one side (Hamas), incidentally, deliberately targeting civilians while also deliberately using its own civilians as shields.
