Every day I feel getting closer and closer to adventure-time Liberals don't want real liberation for palestine. They have a fetish for defeat. I literally cannot have half a conversation with anyone above the age of 30 without racist chauvinism or hearing them justify imperialism.

    "With violence." Sorry but is your dad like dumb? They hurt a boat? Okay?

    Actually tbqh the best way to go with these people is just full on Mao glowing eyes WE ARE A PAPER TIGER, FATHER posting. Destroy Your Father With Facts And Logic By EXPLAINING Trading Expensive US Missiles For Ansarallah Missiles Accomplishes Nothing

    at least not any more than trading air defense for the drones and shit

      i went full on mask off with my father-in-law last weekend for the first time, and said that Ukraine must surrender to Russia immediately and that ISIS and Al Qaeda are US/Israeli/Turkish/Saudi/UAE puppets. There was no response, they were just stun locked

      Capital has life, agency, and rights, whereas people are merely disposable commodities. Don't you know that giving boats or steel containers booboos is way worse than disposing of useless human flesh?

      Uh, haven't the Houthis literally taken at least 25 of the ship crew hostage? God knows how they're faring, if they're even alive or not..

        What I find impressive is you don't even think anyone has checked if they are alive? God knows.

        They're on video hangin out and chewing khat, I know as Americans we're conditioned to project our military's extreme brutality towards prisoners onto everyone else, but there's simply no reason to assume they'd just murdertorture them for no practical gain whatsoever.

        Also, and this isn't just towards you, the overuse of the word literally for snarky emphasis is literally going to drive me to howling madness.

        Frankly i don't give a shit. Fuck around and find out; you don't just go sailing near a war zone and expect shit to be sweet. Shit, for all I know, all those containers could be hiding Western troops, missiles, and drones.

        Note for the comrades: I'm aware of the videos of the hostages and their heroic amounts of khat, I just like weaponizing the crackers' favorite slander about the spooky scurry terrorists under their bed against the Five-Eyed Empire.
