American leftists frothing at the mouth for terrorism & chaos in the Mid East. You know, there’s always the option to advocate for peaceful resolution through agreement, compromise, & cooperation, but what would they jerk off to if it wasn’t Middle Eastern blood & urban warfare?

@dragonfliesout You know your tweets and retweets are public, right? This is some of the most extreme pro-Hamas rhetoric I've ever seen and if you really can't see a difference between advocating for Palestinians and leaving heart emojis on Sinwar's face then I don't know how to help you.…

@elicalebon Myopic view. People aren't anti west they are anti genocide or anti war. The west is the propagators of war, terror, massacres, genocide. The west is actively supporting and committing war crimes. They don't hate the land they hate the traitors who traffic in war

I don’t even understand how this is an argument. If a class of people that were slaughtered in their millions ask you to simply not invoke that slaughter to make whatever separate point you want to make, how is the response, “no! We can! We will! We must” How about just, you…

The most telling aspect about the Mazzig/Jones debate is hypocritical leftist reactions. If a member of *any other minority* stated with anguish that the weaponisation of the atrocities inflicted on their people was offensive, leftists would jump to defend said minority.

First, the west called all of us terrorists, & that allowed them to kill us. Now, the west refuses to call any of us terrorists, & that allows terrorists to keep killing us. The common thread is that we keep being killed because of their ignorance & inability to draw the line.
