    You, one post ago:

    At no point -nowhere- did they defend the IDF and claim the occupation is inherently justified.

    Insulting my reading abilities, apart from violating community rules (I do not moderate my own discussions, but this will make me take a look at others you are having) is a bit silly when you don’t seem to remember what you wrote one post before.

      Yes, in a separate thread, which you had to dig up. My point stands: you’re not engaging with the argument. You’re here for cheap shots. IDF bad, amirite?

        Multiple comments of yours have now been removed for incivility. At this point, continuing to insult anyone, including myself, will result in a ban.

          Also, love the pivot. When you can’t engage with the argument any more you resort to ban threaths. Just do it. Who gives a fuck about your little echo chamber.

          I don’t care…as long as you guys don’t have to engage with any of the points go ahead and ban. What’s the point anyway? You guys can keep the circle jerk going. Whatever makes you feel better I suppose.

            I am not going to ban you unless you continue to violate the rules as clearly stated in the sidebar. All users have to abide by these rules, not just you. Insulting people is very much against them, so stop doing it if you wish to keep talking here.

              I feel insulted every time people intentionally misrepresent my arguments. Why is it so hard for people to engage in good faith here?

                For the same reason, apparently, that it is so hard for you to engage without making personal attacks. The difference is that if I see you do it again, you’ll be banned.

                  Listen, I will admit. I have been making personal attacks, that’s true. But only because it seems no one here is able to engage critically with any of the points without having to grandstand or divert. Here is a sample of a Lemmy conversation:

                  User 1: did you know about A or B?

                  User 2: I disagree with C

                  User 1: we are talking about A and B

                  User 2: yeah, but C is really bad.

                  User 1: that’s not what we’re talking about…

                  Over. And over. And over.

                    I don’t really care what your excuse for breaking the community rules is.

                    “They made me do it” is certainly not a valid excuse.

                    I suggest you stop poking the bear now.
