Hamas committed genocide on October 7, 2023. If you support Hamas, you support genocide.
Anyone with half a brain can see the genocidal actions of Hamas does not benefit the Palestinian people. They only get Palestinian people killed and produce propaganda for their own profit. If you support Hamas, you want more Palestinians to die.
A non-violent resistance movement is the only feasible path to Palestinian statehood. The existence of Hamas means it can't be a non-violent resistance. If you support Hamas, you're against Palestinian statehood.
Support of Hamas means you're someone in denial that Hamas lost, you're in denial that Hamas has been objectively bad for the Palestinian people. Your hatred doesn't make you stronger, it only makes you stupid. Hamas and others dominated by hate will continue to lose endlessly because they're too stupid to accomplish anything other than destruction. You feel like hatred will make you strong enough to destroy your enemies. Look at Tel Aviv. Look at Gaza. What has the hatred of Hamas really destroyed?
The Nazis were hateful people that lost a war and were objectively bad for the German people. Today only losers identify as Nazis. Supporting Hamas at this point is no different. Hamas is objectively bad for the Palestinian people, and they are losers. Modern day Nazis will say it's about pride or whatever, but we all know they're losers that only have hatred and nothing else. Same goes for Hamas. It's identifying losers that didn't accomplish anything other than the destruction of their own city and the deaths of their own people.
If you support Hamas you're a stupid loser that doesn't have anything other than hatred. That's why you don't get invited to nice parties. You're full of hatred and denial that's what makes you losers.
Wait let me check the definition of genocide real quick
Ok, let me see
Yep, definitely a genocide, mhm
And since wasn't actually investigated no one even knows how many were killed by hamas vs idfs apache gunships
Hamas' genocide is only limited by their capability, not by their intent.
Do you honestly think they were keeping count on that day and were like "whoah, we're over 1000 we better stop!" Or do you think if they were capable of killing 1000 more people they would have? If they were capable of killing a million Jews, do you think they would?
Let's not be naive, Hamas would kill every Jew if they could. The only reason they don't is because they are opposed. If you support Hamas, you don't think they should be opposed in their goals. Which means you want genocide. Hamas supporters are genocide supporters.
Yeah genocide is not about the actual harm you do in the real world, it's about the harm you would have wanted to do if you could. According to this commenter's speculation of how much you would have wanted it.
What a great definition. Are you fucking stoned or something?
