this belongs in https://lemmygrad.ml/c/shitreactionariessay not dunk tank comrade x (i dont remember how yo link neatly sorry)
Yeah, I think it's really unfortunate that we can't dunk on this sort of thing on hexbear unless someone sufficiently famous says it, especially for our anarchist comrades who may not want to post their dunks on an ML-specific instance, or for people who have their feeds set to local. But since several months ago, it was inexplicably decreed that there is no place on hexbear for dunking if it's not actual politicians or someone with enough renown like Elon Musk directly, who are on the receiving end of the dunk. So for future reference, if you do want to dunk or discuss something concerning (or worse) that you found online somewhere, you now have to go to lemmygrad to do so. Thems the rules.
How do you identify with being from Palestine without also being Palestinian?
"Okay; I'm not Palestinian but I'm from that region; I'm not allowed to go back, NO IDEA WHY, and I don't have a passport or citizenship to whatever exists over there, NO IDEA WHY, and I won't be given one either; otherwise there's a whole bunch of people from Europe and America who are NOT from that region who are given passports and citizenship to it even though, again, they're NOT from that region"
Or "Damn, since I'm from that region you're right; I should absolutely be given citizenship to whatever the heck is going on over there so I can go back as a citizen of that place I'm from"
And for the people from that region currently living in that region, "I live here and I'm from here so why don't I have citizenship but some white guy from America does?"
Yes yes, a people that has existed for millennia are all terrorists. Dang I sure remember when the Palestinians did the Der Yassin massacre, it was so bad…
