Double standards or something, I don't know...

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is much more nuanced. Both countries' current heads of state are kinda like "all this land is my country's, the other country should not exist." It's unclear who is right.

The Russo-Ukranian conflict is clear. One leader is claiming the land of the other, the other just want it back. Ukraine's government is not claiming half of Russia.

Idk if this is a hot take, but imo the war in Ukraine is pretty clear city while the Palestinian and Israeli conflict his an infinite list of wrinkles and nuances.

It's far less controversial to say the former is Russia's fault than it is to say the latter is either Palestine's or Israel's fault.

You can't compare these 2 conflicts at all.

I've seen so many stupid takes today, and this is one of them. The conflicts aren't similar!

Launching rockets at civilians isn't glorious whether you're Russian or Palestinian.

HAMAS isn't Palestine. Israel isn't Judaism.

Dumb meme, the 2 situations are not similar.

IMO everyone should leave everyone else the fuck alone and stop trying to be modern empires, but come on man, these are VERY different situations.

I haven't heard any reports of Ukrainians slaughtering fleeing civilians, though, so...

ho boy, here we go again.

At this point in time that conflict has been going on for so long, I have no clue anymore who started it. So all I can do is judge both sides by their current actions without historical justification which, to me, results in fanatical religious fascists fighting fanatical religious fascists with neither side caring for civilian casualties. Not exactly a situation in which I'd support any side tbh.

Warning: Some super-unique hot takes from edgelords here!

Proceed with caution...

Biden is 100% gonna support "Israel's right to defend itself", while they've been awfully quiet when Palestani people are getting murdered and their infrastructure decimated 🫣🤫

Fucking fascists

Hurr durr, now that a palestinian terrorist group is attacking is the best moment to be vocal about palestinian freedom

And you people wonder why you get downvoted?

Dude have you seen what Hamas did yesterday? Kidnapping children, women, elders. Even burnt houses to get families out of their homes to kidnap them. No matter how sympathetic you are towards palestinians, no one with a right conscious can support them.

Ppl who have no idea how palestinian conflict started half a century ago commenting like 'completely different cases!'

Same ppl fifty years later and war continues in Ukraine: 'ok, now I get it'

I'm so proud of my government for acting consistently. They support Russia and Israel.

(I get why they're doing it, but it still feels wrong.)

Let's make a list of all the ways Ukraine is different to Palestine.

We'll be here a while.

Reminder that the OUN, which helped do the holocaust, used the phrase "Slava Ukraini" as their motto

Tasteless

Palestine needs a state and so does Israel

Ukraine is simply more important to the countries bordering russia, the EU and it's allies

I love how the upvote/downvote rate is almost 1

Western hypocricy never ceases to amaze

The people who have spent time telling is that Ukraine is fighting for its nation against an invader and how its good are having a real hard time reconciling with reality as evidenced by the amount of down votes.

If anything, this Hamas operation revealed you fucks' true faces. It was never about "liberty of the people" "self governance" or "respect of territorial integrity". It's just that you're bloodthirsty monsters desperate to have a side to pick and finding excuses for why you always align with the largest imperial power in the world.

I'm surprised more hexbears haven't jumped on this

Cant they just give the whole land to the Arabs, declare Jerusalem as a religious state (like Vatican City) and create a new Capital for the new Palestine Land?

Both suck to be fair but Israel for me suck less. My reasoning mostly stem on their Ideology. Israel leans more to the US. Israel though recently leaning more to the extreme right, is still liberal compared to the rest of the nations in middle east. Woman has more freedom under Israel it seems. LGBT is more supported in Israel. For Hamas on the other hand has the same vibe for me with Taliban it doesn't help that it is supported by Iran and Russia. As for Ukraine I support them since they lean more to the West (EU and the US) and they are more democratic than Russia. That's my thought anyway.

I am anti oppressors and warcryers, sympathic to defenders, protectors and the dead. sometimes who the oppressor charges. I know asking doesn’t help but like please everyone stop killing eachother..

Posts and comments like the ones found here are getting downvoted to hell by idiot Hexbears.

I'd keep my hand up

Russian propo like typing detected

Slava Ukraine.

Rise up Palestine.

Burn the oppressors of the world and light our way to a better future.

Mass deleted with lemmy-bulldoze

Simple, Palestinians are brown and have less resources that America wants/needs.

I’m with both Palestinians and Ukrainians.

Aha i'm going to have fun reading the comments. Liberals let their fascism show whenever geopolitics get involved.

idk, from an american perspective, pretty sure the americans that support Ukraine also support Palestine, whereas the americans that support Russia also support Israel.

mostly certain.

Says who buddy Bidens ass is getting reamed on this one

Yeah because Palestine is the aggressor here and to fully blame. Slava ukraini and fuck Palestine.

Because the TV tells them who to support
