Damn if these groups are all really Hamas I think we're gonna have to re-evaluate our assessment of these "Hamas" folks

And not even improving the lives of its own citizens. Literally just causing as much death and destruction all over the world as possible just to profit a couple of military and oil corporations and their owners.

What the fuck are you even saying

Are you actually braindead or is this a bit?

None of these are mutually exclusive statements. You can understand that Israel propped up Hamas to label their aggressive tactics as "terrorism" and use that against all Palestinians, while understanding that those "terrorist" tactics can indeed be effective.

The US propped up the Taliban and other right-wing terrorist groups in Afganistan in the 80s to oppose their then secular Socialist gov and the supporting USSR, and we all know how that came back to bite them later. Just because a country props a group up doesn't mean it'll always keep doing things beneficial to them.

are upset by how Israel is doing it too

"Terrorist" tactics (or anything really) used for the sake of driving out a settler colonial ethnostate (a good thing) - like Hamas are doing and Viet Cong did - is good, while those tactics when used to oppress and commit genocide on a native population (a bad thing) - like Israel is doing - is bad. This isn't that hard to understand.

Viet Cong's success in reuniting Vietnam says otherwise.

Attacking villages, taking hostages, and using guerilla tactics (like both Viet Cong did and Hamas are doing) are just the most effective ways of driving out an occupying force, and they wouldn’t be necessary if the oppressors weren’t there in the first place.

We don't federate with nazi instances either.

Threads has massive homophobic and racist accounts like LibsOnTikTok and MomsForLiberty. We shouldn't federate with an instance that can't even take care of banning that.

Obsidian is a godsend. The sheer number of plugins gives you basically anything you could want.

It not being open-source is pretty much my only complaint lol
