Why is it so difficult for folks to realize that Israel is the aggressor here? There aren't many people who look back at South African apartheid and go "Nelson Mandela was the bad guy ackshually." So why is it so hard here?
Because people have been so brainwashed by the both sides thing, and the general stereotypes of Israel as the only western style liberal democracy, and of palestinians as radical islamists, and the refusal to believe that Apartheid is something that happens outside of the history books. I am more and more starting to believe that stuff like the Holocaust happened because people refused to believe that such oppression and murder could be both so mundane and something that happens now and not in some barbaric past.
There aren’t many people who look back at South African apartheid and go “Nelson Mandela was the bad guy ackshually.”
People do this all the time, ackshually. Google "mandela terrorist" or something. He was on the US terror list until 2008.
If this were intended as an ironic jab at USA's funding Israel's war crimes it would be a solid post. It's almost perfectly wrong...
Lol someone posted a macro pointing out her salary and her rejecting 15 dollar minimum wage and Twitter informed me it was “sensitive content”
