    I’m sure glad I don’t see anyone here using that ridiculous trademark

      I’ve absolutely run into that more than once. There are constant excuses for Hamas and Palestine. Because people pick a side and then make everything black and white. Too many people don’t have room for nuance, and every discussion is about winning or losing.

      I’ve had people argue against me who have actually moved my position slightly. You should be open to changing your mind, in whole or in part. Doesn’t mean you have to do it every time, but you are allowed to be wrong sometimes. It means you’re growing as a person.

      The middle east is known as one of the most difficult situations of the last 75 years. There is no simple, good solution. There are no good guys. Most people in that entire area are angry, murderous bastards who don’t see the other side as human beings.

      I don’t know how to solve that. If you think you do, you’re probably an idiot.

      You don’t need to solve everything, and you don’t need to support good guys to believe that genocide needs to stop. You can just believe that even bad people don’t deserve to be murdered in their sleep as part of a collective punishment and land grab.
