We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

According to officers of the Israeli military's Southern Command, the shelling was aimed at maintaining order at food distribution sites, but the army has since shifted to "other methods."

You can go to prison for the duration of the service instead of participating in genocide. Anyone who doesn’t do that is actively choosing to commit genocide.

It's genuinely not that easy and ruins your future chances of having a good life. Just the fact alone that the jail time is looped as long as you refuse to serve IDF, ending your jail time with another draft is.. dark.

Getting shot in a breadline also ruins your future chances at a good life. Being bombed in your hospital bed ruins your future chances of having a good life. Do you deny the genocide in Gaza?

I don't understand why you keep asking me that question and I keep having to answer yes for you to stop going offtopic

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Because you keep begging for sympathy towards those who choose to commit genocide. You are pretending like there is some moral quandary here where none exists.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Begging for sympathy? More like making sure you and this website does not get flagged as an extremist place with no moderation, seeing the same fate as multiple chans and freedom boards. Me wanting others to stop acting like extremists does not equal me defending IDF. You being a piece of shit towards the group whose opinion you want to change ruins your own chances of swaying said people's opinions.

Military does not drop flyers saying "death to you", they drop flyers saying "stop serving the army and we will help you".

Still not getting my point? Damn I'm too European for this platform

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Most Europeans don’t sympathize with genociders.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Exactly, which is why I'm showing a clear disgust towards the people calling for (another) genocide. You. Hypocrisy is flying over your head.

EDIT: Over time I've realized that this place is more hateful than 4chan. It's fucking weird when reddit alternative can make 4chan look good. Y'all are losing the plot and I don't see good future for lemmy with you people constantly challenging the fate.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Most of the traffic from 4chan was from Israel.

No one in this thread has called for genocide.

The IDF is a criminal terrorist organization. Participation in it is morally reprehensible. If in order to have a good life you have to murder children standing in bread lines then your idea of a good life is not worth preserving.

No one in this thread has called for genocide.

Lmao I'm stopping her and not even bothering with rest, because my entire argument today is against people doing hate speech that can be interpreted by others who want to take down lemmy as calls for genocide against Jewish population

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

The IDF is not an ethnic group. Your sad attempts at claiming otherwise betray your obvious bigotry.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

You, an European, can join US army once you get the green card. That will never happen with IDF as it's for an ethnic group. Look up who can serve in IDF. Palestinians or non-Jewish (including Arabic) people living in Israel are not really allowed in IDF

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I don’t see how that’s relevant. There are plenty of Jews that aren’t in the IDF. Most of them, in fact.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

If a group is allowed to be from only one ethnic group, that makes the group..?
