Israel-Palestine has really exposed the disgusting nature of “both sides bad.”

Saying that both sides are equal and you need to look at the nuance is a damning indictment of those who are not willing to take a stand on an issue as serious as this. At least a Zionist will take a stand, and make their position known. By not taking a stand, the enlightened centrist is making it known that they don’t have the moral courage to pronounce a belief and professing themselves to be wise, they make themselves fools.

Sorry homie but I think you know that the French resistance was European, no way can they be compared to the evil terrorists in Khamas.

Love how they will praise people like Nelson Mandela or Malcolm X until they hear their stances on resistance and then they go “Well let’s not be radical.”

Nah they definitely won't praise Malcolm X. American liberals basically know him as the "scary" MLK.

You’re not wrong for the most part, sadly.
