My top looks different, but these all do in fact seem to be posts about Europe. It’s a major conflict that is getting a lot of media attention and European countries have finally started losing patience with Israel’s actions.

Being shot at by an occupying army does seem quite inconvenient

Why do you need to be polite? If you’re direct or even rude you’re doing her a favour because it might turn her away from approaching other adults who would actually take advantage of her

The world’s newest country (South Sudan) was recognised by France and many others on the day it declared independence. Unless there is a specific legal formality only affecting immediate recognition of Palestine it just sounds like stalling. I’m sure the Palestinian Authority will forgive the delay in updating websites, you know how developers are.

I agree with most of your points, I just don’t think any of them cross the threshold for what should be considered free speech. I also don’t think the default assumption should be antisemitism or holocaust denial or whatever.

The Nazis were obviously worse, but the vast majority of people saying they are the same are just being hyperbolic or at worst ignorant. The vast majority of people saying the state of Israel should be abolished (at least on western social media) do not mean “the Jews dont deserve a home” or “it should be abolished through the killing of all Israelis”. And yeah there’s no short version for the Zionism issue on this end either because it’s a word that can mean anything to different people.

I didn’t call you an asshole lol I just find it hard to believe someone would not just continue to pirate the software they already pirate if that remained an option

Yes, at least according to their rules. The server is based in Germany though, and they have a very loose definition of antisemitism as a crime which includes things like equating Israeli actions to those of Nazi Germany, calling for the abolition of Israel and being against Zionism in some cases

A very small part at this point, all things considered, and one intentionally propped up by the Israeli government for this purpose by their own admission
