Yeah those guys are weird. Almost as weird as the "progressive except for Palestine" crowd.

Edit: actually, exactly like that crowd. Both are making exceptions to their progressivism for Palestine. Only some do it in a pro-Israeli and some in an anti-Israeli way. "Except for Palestine" both ways.

The enemy of your enemy may still be your enemy.

I was on the side of Houthis after being oppressed by American-backed, Saudi-led military forces. But now it became clear they are lackeys of Iran who attack innocent sailors, who have no dog in the geopolitical dick measuring contest.

Yeah. I was never on the side of the Houthis, but I considered our support for Saudi-backed murderers instead of Iranian-backed murderers to be utterly pointless, except negatively insofar as it involved us backing a bunch of vile fuckers in a conflict we had no business being in.

Still wouldn't support the Saudis if it were up to me. But now I certainly support retaliating against the Houthis until they stop attacking international civilian shipping.

Comments removed for trolling…… on a meme sub.

That’s novel.

I know the comments are immediately filled by these assholes but I'm glad they are being down voted and OP is being up voted.

Its so akward to engage with people like that... it's like people supporting russia because ukraine is supported by america. 2 can be shit at once. Its not that hard.

If isis starts attacking israel, that does not mean you need to support isis...

I just want to oppose Israeli genocide without saying that the "A Curse Upon The Jews" folks targeting random countries' civilian shipping are kosher (ha) because they said they're doing it for A Really Good Cause, Promise(tm), despite the utter lack of apparent effect on that cause, and dubious mechanisms for even its theoretical effect on that cause.

Campism is a hell of a drug

That's how I got banned from 196 calling out bs like that. Pretty sure /u/Moss is a full blown tankie
