Yes. I am saying that learning hatred is wrong - and you don't have to pick a side to deprogram people. It helps if you don't, that's what counselling is all about. You don't start a counselling session with a couple by deciding which of them is a fucker and is 'wrong' and leading with that.

So yes, I do think they are wrong - but I also think you are wrong. Your knee jerk reactionary approach is counter-productive, at the moment I don't think you could sit in a room with anyone from the Middle East and not get yourself punched - you'd also have very little idea why you were punched because the objective insight isn't there. You're very likely to view that comment as anti-semitic and have no idea why that's ironic. Or to paraphrase you, if you're taught that everyone in the world is anti-semitic and hates jews, what are you going to do when you meet everyone in the world?

If I wanted to run for cover, I would've done so. I haven't. I continue to engage in discussions with both sides of the debate - you can see my comments section. Though, as my article linked above makes clear - I think Hamas is very much the problem that needs to be immediately solved. As well as arguing with you, I continue to argue elsewhere that Israel aren't committing a genocide because the legal argument doesn't support it. I am very much doing the opposite of running for cover - and yet everyone accuses me of being on everyone else's side.

I said I wasn't religious. I didn't say I wasn't Jewish. I don't play identity politics - see my pinned story.

you can stop acting like a self-righteous intellectual and say for certain - the killing of innocent JEWS is WRONG!! And should STOP IMMEDIATELY!!

Let me fix that for you....

There.... I made you sound like less like an ethno-nationalist.
