    Nobody is saying what Hamas did was acceptable, but a lot of people like you will say any stupid bullshit to distract people from talking about ongoing war crimes being committed by our allies.

      I have seen people on Lemmygrad celebrating what Hamas did and talking about how they hoped the hostages get tortured. It is not accurate to claim nobody is saying what Hamas did was acceptable.

        Mia Khalifa is certainly celebrating it.

        So is BLM Chicago, and the greater movement doesn’t seem to object.

        Brooklyn College students held a vigil for the dead; others went to protest the vigil, screaming the whole time that it was “justified.”

        Londoners vandalized a Jewish neighborhood. Australians are chanting “gas the Jews.” New Yorkers at the “pro-Palestinian” marches gleefully waved swastikas.

        A group of something like 30 Harvard clubs issued a statement saying Israel was entirely at fault for the attack, didn’t mention Hamas at all.

        Most of this happened before any reprisals. They’re not complaining about reprisals, they’re glorifying the violence.

        Lots of people are saying it was acceptable, lots of people are celebrating it, and they’re not all too subtle about why.

      Someone said Hamas did a bad thing, so your first response was “oh yeah, well Israel…” Which tells me you do in fact support Hamas and what they did
