I mean it is essentially murdering people partying on people’s graves - not proportional but I can’t imagine people didnt know it was a provocation.
Its tragic but I think unless people start calling the Israeli government’s decades of murders and evictions “terrorism” it seems like the press is very much deciding how people should see “Hamas as the sole villain” and I think there’s a certain amount of justified pushback here thats being misinterpreted as “support for Hamas”
Provoking something by living your life doesn’t mean you’re bad. It just means you’re taking a risk that the dust has settled.
The people that died in the attack aren’t any worse than anyone here, they were put in this position by the israeli government and its policies. Israel has more bodies than Hamas in this fight. There are two villains here and its unfortunate the press only describes one as terrorists.
Hamas being equated with the entirety of the Palestinian people and diaspora is what pisses me off the most. Israel tries to equate them all together so it can commit genocide without any eye-batting.

IMO from this outlook the entire planet is covered in graves and we all are bad for living our life.

I’m unaware of the exact history b/w both the groups to give any sound judgement so I will refrain from doing it.
