Socialism

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.


Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

And how many israeli leaders were killed by Palestinians? There were surely a lot of them ravin

What the hell kind of response and way of thinking is this? You were just told "hundreds of children were killed" and your response is "yeah, but how many innocents did the people living in the same area as those children kill?"

Not only is your comment propagating the fucked up idea that children should pay for the crimes of their parents, but it's also quite racist/xenophobic ("they live in the same area, so they/their parents must be just like the rest of them!").

Perhaps there's something going over my head, but the more I read it, the more it just sounds like a really fucked up comment to me.

When I saw this comment, I didn't parse it 'cause it wasn't obvious to me what they were trying to say. Now that you've unpacked it, it's much more clear, and yes, completely fucked. Thanks for calling them out.
