I’m not here to deny the atrocities committed by the IDF - I’m simply questioning the legitimacy of the term in this specific context, while somewhat provocatively trying to highlight the fact that accusing Israel of using human shields is a bit like accusing Ukraine of killing civilians. While both may be technically true, it still paints a somewhat dishonest picture of the actual reality - which, in this case, is that using human shields is Hamas’ number one tactic, and no intellectually honest person can seriously claim otherwise.
No one is buying your Zionist bullshit
Well obviously not. We're long past the times where it mattered what anyone was actually saying. Fighting strawmen and attacking people directly rather than what they're saying is a lot easier and wins you many more upvotes from the hivemind.
Good thing I brought an entire fucking list of sources, dumbass
That's precisely what you are doing. You are a genocide apologist and I am not surprised someone called you a "fascist" in another thread.
