Was apartheid South Africa not an ethnostate then? Was the US south during slavery not an ethnostate? I almost wonder if your comment itself is Israeli propaganda.

Yeah, that sounds like Israel to me. Does that not sound like Israel to you?

Why is the word Israeli removed from the title? and Meta added? Seems like quite a politically-important modification

The current title (11:36 AM PST) is:

"Leaked Data Reveals Massive Israeli Campaign to Remove Pro-Palestine Posts on Facebook and Instagram"

@dang IDK if this matters, nor when the title was changed (from submission, to now). Just an FYI.

I like to think we are in a better place than russia for instance with all its propaganda and jailed journalists, but then i see these kind of article come over and over.... Most of the people in the 'free world' goes on mainstream media, like facebook to get their news. These companies are enticed to 'suck up' to the government because at the end they are business, they need to be in good term with ruling class. you…

It's still humans being humans, we just have a covert culture while they are more overt. I personally like being tricked/manipulated more than forced. I'd rather get Tom Sawyered into painting a fence than being held at gunpoint.

I don’t know what Islam says about this, but the Old Testament certainly speaks of God allowing enemies to do things to Israel (by which I mean biblical Israel — I don’t intend to express any position on the relationship between that country and the current day country ) for various reasons.

So, if Islam’s view of things is similar, I don’t think this would be a refutation?

(Now, to be clear, I believe that Islam is false. But I’m not convinced that “bad things are happening to them” is something they would have reason to conclude is good evidence for it being false. Of course, one could just see this as another instance of the question of theodicy (“Why does God allow bad things to happen?”), and I’m not sure this instance of it makes the question particularly more difficult to answer? Though I suppose if Islam includes claims about like, always winning or something, or always winning conditional on X,Y,Z when X,Y,Z are true, then it would contradict that.)

Tell me: how do you define “actual” genocide when the goalposts keep moving and the top courts responsible for prosecuting genocide keep getting ignored and (in the case of ICC) sanctioned? At this point, anyone with even an ounce of awareness & empathy should realize that international law is dead until further notice.

You’re not arrested for posting this, so that is a pretty big difference to Russia (and other authoritarian nations like China and Turkey), no? https://rsf.org/en/country/russia

You do realize that this is where things are going, right? Have you not heard of the arrests and recent deportations of student protestors?

I don’t understand why we keep forgetting that authoritarianism is a slippery slope.

I think my country (USA) would be healthier if a common sense viewpoint was selected and held. Conflicts are always terrible, and the Eurasia / Africa region countries are particularly brutal. Every citizen of every country has a human right (in a civilized civilization / society) to live a life that does not involve violence. A life where they are not worried about RPGs, bombings, (etc,) or military invasions. Some…

I just don't see a way that a two-state solution works. A three-state solution might be feasible (Gaza and West Bank governed separately), but then you have to deal with internal Israeli politics, and I really don't know enough about them to make even an educated guess about how hard it would be to get that through (I would imagine very, but like I said, I know very little about their politics).
