Comment on Greens capitulate to right-wing campaign against the Palestine movement
guismo@aussie.zone 2 months agoI find it really, really hard to believe that someone against people protesting the genocide of a poor country would be so worried about what happens in other poor countries that he would be against immigration on his own country.
Come on, I was honest even though everyone will see me as an evil bastard who hates Muslims. You can be honest too. People will judge but you will feel better.
But either way, what does that have to do with immigration? Your hate for (specific) immigrants is so large that it’s clouding your reason. This is about protesting against the genocide Israel is doing in Palestine.
And do you hate all immigrants or Israelis get a free pass because they are nice, white, rich people and wouldn’t murder masses outside of middle east?

I think you’ve just voiced your opinion in a terrible way.
“I hate religion and the bad in causes in the world. I don’t agree with the beliefs of anyone who holds a religion” - totally reasonable position.
“I hate Muslims” (or any religious group of people), seems extremely hateful. You’re saying you don’t just hate a religion, or disagree with people. You hate them personally.
I dunno, just feels like you need to reframe your opinion, or if you really do hate people simply for being religious, need to think if that’s a healthy point of view.
I say this as someone who is vehemently anti-religion, as in most cases, there is some harm being caused by an unacceptably large subset within almost any religious group. But, I still recognise people’s right to believe whatever the hell they want, as long as they’re not personally causing heinous harm themselves, or purposefully/negligently supporting people who do.
You just can’t paint massive groups of people all with the same brush.
Same vibe: I hate the state of Israel, and the Israeli polity for committing genocide, but I still don’t hate Israelis as a blanket statement. That’s just bigotry friend.
Hi ASIO, no, criticising a foreign state isn’t a hate crime!
