"Personally? I try to make it a point to use pejoratives like “tankies”. In part because I know people are stupid and will view even that as me saying “all leftists” (which is funny since, while I tend to identify more as a “liberal”, I am very much on that spectrum)."

    Some of those comments do be sounding kinda insane and unnecessary. Zionoid? Really?

    Its unfortunate that civilians (yes that includes settlers) died. However its important to acknowledge that Palestine doesn't have an organized army like "Israel" does.

    "Israelis" can leave, Palestinians can't.

      I don't think settlers are civilians in the normal sense. They are combatants, they steal homes by force, attack Palestinians, and function as irregular occupying troops.
