    I don’t know man… Why does having any historical context help to discuss the biggest conflict in middle east? Are you under the impression the genocide started on Oct 7?

      what are you even talking about? “the meaning of the western wall” has no bearing on the reality of the genocide, not the morality of it. this is not a religious project. it’s a settler colonial project. you don’t even need to know what religion they are part of, let alone what some fucking magic wall is supposed to “mean”. here’s what it means: nothing. none of this shit is for or because of the wall.

        You can downplay it all you want, which is weird, but it is a central element to the Jewish claim for the right to return. You know, the reason the Zionists are there in the first place. But hey, listen, if you like superficial slop rage farming content you do you. Hey, btw did you know genocide bad? Kony 2012!

          the reason Zionists are there is not because of that. again, this is not a religious project, it’s a settler colonial one. all of that is bullshit justifications.

          by the way even if it weren’t it still wouldn’t matter one fucking bit for one to form an opinion on the genocide, or apartheid state, or settler colonialism because the so-called reasoning doesn’t fucking matter. i don’t understand why you’re talking as if in certain nuanced situations maybe genocide would be justified. maybe apartheid would be ok. if only you knew the religious reasons maybe you’d understand that ethnic cleansing is not bad, actually…

          the way you talk about this makes me pretty sure you’re a crypto zionist trying to downplay criticisms of Israel. well kindly fuck off with all that.
