But Israel will do exactly that. If you want to condemn the killing of innocent people. You need to do it to both sides.

I am not pro Israel. You are just assuming that for no fuckig reason.
Israel is committing what could be easily called genocide in Gaza. Moving settlers in, pushing palestinians away from their homes, killing their kids, their fathers. Doing who knows what else.
I am against Zionist Israel and against Hamas.
I am for a state for both Jews and Palestinians.
You can have that position.
Unlike the Ukranian conflict, both of the fighting sides are in the wrong. There should be no fighting to begin with. Only innocents suffer.
Well then just ask yourself is a meme about the conflicts themselves or about the west's condemnation of one powers imperialism while supporting the imperialism of another?
Did I make the meme? Am I the west or something? For all you know, I could not even be in the global west.
Not once have I supported the imperialism, I called what's Israel is doing a genocide for crying out loud.
Get a fucking reality check buddy.
Why are you so angry? I am not or ever attacking you. I never said you made the meme or where you live. Sorry for presenting you with an opinion that differs from yours.
Not angry, simply annoyed. Mostly because you keep assuming shit, preaching stuff that's incredibly well known, especially in leftist circles and conflating 2 completely separate conflicts together as if they have any similarities.
Unlike you, I did think about the meme, and it makes absolutely no sense in reality we live in.
I never assumed anything about you and I definitely didn't swear at you.
objectively false
