I think that’s good advice for social situations, but if you truly believe there is genocide occurring, or exploration, then there is nothing wrong with supporting one side over the other.

Yeah there is. If you’re antifascist and anti-imperialist you should support the oppressed people.
If you don’t side explicitly against fascist states and American imperialism then you support it.

And support terrorism? Tell me how will these large scale attack make life better for Palestinians?

Terrorism or liberation?
How will the opposite help?
Injustice can happen under peace, so peace is not the answer. Peace is the language of the oppressor, liberation and justice is the language of the oppressed.
Also if America backs someone and calls their opponents terrorists even through they funded them, does that mean the opponents are actually terrorists?

It’s terrorism when you attack civilians. It’s liberation when you attack the military. I mean they must not give a shit about getting any kind of support because it looks really bad when you murder and kidnap people from a music festival especially when many of them were foreigners. That passes everyone off. And the Palestinians are gonna get murdered for it. I’m sure the ireaeli government is just giddy to have a huge excuse for their current invasion… the Gaza strip really needs to become a neutral zone at this point lol…

What liberation will there be here? Do you expect the hamas to win anything against Israel? They would fight actual military targets if they could win anything.
Can you tell what this show of violence from the hamas will bring to Palestine? What will Palestine earn from this?
I’m all for fighting oppression. But I’m skeptical of sacrificing people for nothing.
Yes Israel is a fascist and terrorist country. And the US are hypocrite to support them. That being said, will a shower of rockets on civilians change any of that? No, on the contrary.
If any, Israel is the only one that will win from this new war.
