Someone explain this to me? Hamas is a terrorist group the controls the Palestinians in Gaza. They are not representive of most Palestinians. So this feels like an easy, "yes I condemn Hamas,but also the Palestinian people are being screwed by the Israeli government"
The meme is that westerners care more that that the people that are seeing their kids murdered condemn the only (while very imperfect) group that is helping them instead of focusing on the fact that kids are being murdered.
This is very important to ignore if you don't want to be inconvenienced by the tremendous and unnecessary suffering that's happening.
