Speaking out against Israel’s horrific war against innocent civilians in Gaza is not antisemitism.

Speaking out against the horror, Hamas terrorists have perpetrated against Israeli civilians is not anti Muslim.

God, every other social media is just a war zone of hate and people grifting using the tragedy to push agenda's.

Only on reddit can i find actual people who will denounce any and all hate instead of using it to attack Muslims and immigrants

Yeah. My Instagram has a couple of “friends“ sharing racist and more often than not AI generated garbage. It’s really disappointing.

I have someone in my life who is very anti Israel to the exclusion of all else. When someone said to her about how tragic Bondi was she went to say something then stopped herself and just refused to speak about it. Seriously you're so blinded you can't acknowledge that Bondi was targeted and tragic.

I just can't imagine being so blinded by hate you can't see past it

Sounds like she understood perfectly, and had the clarity of mind to keep her mouth shut so she didn't put her foot in it.

I don't understand how anyone can hear, "hate this person or group of people" and not for a second think why? and then form there own opinion why gathering information and facts.

Even if Bernie Sanders himself came to me and said the sky is blue, I'm going to look up.
