Remember, EM POC only!

One year of Palestinian resistance… hamas-red-triangle hamas-red-triangle hamas-red-triangle hamas-red-triangle

I want liberation for all of the marginalized who still remain chained up by their oppressors.

That aside, of course, I’m hoping for some happy EM POC vibes this week!

I’m trying this new approach to my issues called the “thug that shit out” approach. Let’s see how it goes!

    And a year is practically nothing. Person was really telling on themselves when they were all “Not everyone is born a commie.”

    There’s liberal naivety and then there’s “making up stories about beheading children so you have a reason to carry out ethnic cleansing of your neighbors.” People might go through the former. You don’t go through a nazi phase and then earn my trust just because you changed to what millions of people already knew.

    It’s like that argument “Well, back in those days slavery was acceptable, so you can’t judge people,” which completely ignores the fact slaves knew it was wrong. There were non-slaves who knew it was wrong and argued for its abolition. The same thing has been true for stuff like homophobia, sexism, carnism, etc.

      They completely told on themselves. I don’t even believe them anymore when they say they were a ‘Communist for a long time’. They are still a lib in their heart. Recovering, at best.

      I absolutely agree with you, exactly. I feel like they were conflating past liberal naivety like voting for Obama to get good healthcare with currently being in favour of a Nazistic genocide. Zionism is an extension of the Nazi project. I’m not going to forgive and forget with people who demanded the Holocaust and joined in on killing Jews in Europe and turning in their neighbors just because the Soviets destroyed the Nazis and now everyone has to feign innocence like they never did what they did. Anyone arguing otherwise is defending and apologizing for Nazis guilty of the Holocaust. But, suddenly now, in the present day, the situation is complex because there are a lot of supporters of the contemporary Nazi project and some people who used to support them recently changed their minds after they saw the Zio-Nazis do what they have said they would do for almost a century. No, I’m not willing to compromise and forgive Nazis just because there are a lot of them and some of them were deceived or propagandized into supporting their crimes. Stalin’s biggest mistake was stopping at Berlin and we should never forget that. The entire world still needs to be de-Nazified. No forgiveness. Don’t like that because it hits close to home? too-bad

      Exactly. It’s like they don’t even realize how they are just repeating the same argument that was used throughout history by people to apologize for themselves committing these crimes. None of this shit is forgivable and there were always people who knew, especially the victims, that it was fucking wrong. I’m not going to forgive some fucking supporter of slavery because ‘they were a product of their time’ or some such bullshit platitude. Get right the fuck out with that shit. I am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away, but with blood. JB-shining-aggro
