UK arrests 83-year-old priest for backing Palestine Action and opposing Gaza genocide - Lemmy.ca

Just wondering, if I would hold up a sign with ‘go isreal, continue the amazing work you do!’, would that get me arrested? Surely i’d get beat up but i mean what would the lawmakers think of that? Would it be different if the sign would say ‘go isreal, murder those innocent families’ or ‘go isreal, your genocide rules!’ (am i allowed to call it a genocide if i’m not against it?)
Or you you could just, you know… protest against Israel and pro Palestinians without explicitly showing your allegiance to terrorist organizations such as Hamas.

without explicitly showing your allegiance

So you assume that there’s either an explicit or implicit support for Hamas by protesting against Israel?

Sorry for using difficult words. Make simple for you now:

  • protest against Israel: Ok
  • protest for Palestinians: Good
  • support Hamas: very bad

Understood or brain still hurt?

Where did they show support for Hamas?

terrorist organizations such as Hamas

Can you get more bad faith?

Just stop using Palestinians as as guise for your love of terrorism.

trying to stop delivering arms to a terrorist group commiting genocide: terrorism

commiting genocide and deliberately killing, maiming, starving and playing cruel games with the lives of civilians and literal children: not terrorism

talk about bad faith… fuck off with all that.

Thanks for providing a textbook example of bad faith arguing.

My point was that you can protest for the cause of Palestinians without showing allegiance to terrorist organizations.

You are not only claiming that you must support organizations that are defined as terrorist, you pretend I was the one defining their status.

Well done. (slow clap)

Still haven’t explained where they did this but yeah they’re the ones arguing in bad faith.

Try harder. Can I get the contact information of your handler, I think you need some additional training…
