    anti-authoritarian pacifists first your not a pacifist. Second for the anti-authoritarian parts… well that’s really the wrong conflict to get involved in. out of the two parties here, the most stable and democratic ones killed 30 000 civilians. The other one is an authoritarian theocracy.

      Yes I’m a pacifist. What makes you think I’m not?

      The Israeli government is a far right one with fascist tendencies that was already trying to take full control of the courts before October 7th happened. It is NOT a stable liberal democracy, it’s an increasingly authoritarian government trying to tightly control everything and oppressing not only Palestinians but Israeli citizens too.

      The other one is an authoritarian theocracy.

      No argument there. You don’t have to not abhor Hamas to abhor the atrocities of the Israeli government.

      The reason I mentioned the fact that I’m anti-authoritarian had nothing to do with the genocide in particular and everything to do with the fact that tankies are by definition authoritarian, which is one of the many reasons why it’s ridiculous to assume that I’m a tankie.
