I like how we’ve gone from “false flag” and “misinformation” to “it was justified”. Fuck the Israeli government, but I can’t get on board with deliberately pixelating bystanders, no matter what side is doing it. There was no message here, no tactical goal was achieved, it’s just misery for misery’s sake.
Personally I’d just choose to not go to the dance party on stolen land in the apartheid state, and in particular I would avoid the dance party taking place mockingly close to the people being genocided in an open air prison.
I mean, as an American who knows our history, you’re basically asking me to will myself out of existence. I didn’t choose to be born here, and they didn’t choose to be born there. I can accept that having a rave is insensitive, but the whole goddamned world is on fire. The ice caps are melting, microplastics are in everything, governments suck, and I can’t really blame folks for wanting to do something besides watch the motherfucker burn.
Would you choose to go to a rave purposefully right outside the walls of a border detention camp? Do you have parking lot parties down at your local ICE facility? Throw a rager at the closest reservation?
And while the US led genocide is definitely not over, the people in Israel are so much more directly complicit with the furiously churning genocide of Palestine.
I can’t know that experience, but what I do know is that there are many, many, many more Palestinians that also seem to share my understanding that murdering people is wrong, or else the Israeli civilian population would have a much bigger mess on their hands.
“Actually I’m just assuming shit about a subject that I don’t have any deep meaningful knowledge of”
Thanks for the comment champ! We all appreciate that kind of spitballing about history and societal sentiments around here. In the future you could just shut the fuck up instead of trying to speak for Palestinians on the internet.
Not any worse than implying that every Gazan huddled in dark places praying for their lives under constant Israeli bombardment all support the murder of other people as payback

No, but I also wouldn’t fucking murder people who went to that party either.
What if you were one of the inhabitants of the ghetto who had been treated like animals for decades?
Don’t answer. There is no way for you to possibly know the suffering they have endured, and what a human might do in that scenario.
