I'm going to be honest here, I'm training a model to detect question dodging in politicians and have only found limited data, so now I'm hoping to get more examples of high avoidance. This is some shameless crowd-sourcing but I hope people are still enjoying the answers.
Not sure you'll like this one: https://youtu.be/aG0Zd2X8YJY?si=XtPVpy7N4q79drSv Here Julia Hartley-Brewer tries to make Palestinian journalist Wafa Al-Udaini to answer what would be "a proportionate answer to Oct-7 massacre"
Why aren't you "sure" I'd like it?
From one of your previous comments here on Lemmy:
To another lemmy user, you seem to support Hamas, organization whose charter is to make sure Israel is destroyed, and employs barbaric methods, while disregarding any concern for Palestinian lives...
Which part of that sentence exactly shows I support Hamas? I'm serious, please show me... I don't call them terrorists for the same treason the BBC doesn't, and I think their strategies are dumb. The same paragraph above has criticism of Hamas /:
I like how this also brushed over all the posts where I clearly condemn Hamas and their actions.
so where exactly do I support them? Please quote that part, or honestly otherwise just stop this bullshit.
I'm serious, I'm sick of this shit... This is a post is about question dodging on a totally different sub yet people want to go around reading my history, misinterpreting it in a dumb political way, then brining it to a totally different subreddit. Sorry for the big font but I honestly think this is fucking bullshit. Have a shred of self respect. Saying I won't "like" a piece of data because it doesn't agree with me ideologically is a big fat nasty claim to be honest, and that quote above of yours is flimsy non-evidence to support it. I think that stinks. And the weakest part is that that was the only paragraph you could find... Guess why... Because I don't support Hamas /: so you're not going to find any glorious "evidence", just more stuff you pull from a tunnel of comments out of context
