    So belonging equals supporting and justifies destructive action?

    You mean… like belonging to a people living on land coveted by a white supremacist settler-colonial project justifies destructive action?

      The answer you were looking for is “no, belonging does not equal supporting”.

          You know this only works if you posted a question first, which you haven’t, right?

          But I do see a pattern. Everyone who is not in line with your simplistic world view is being accused of being in support of the genocide. Maybe you should learn how to differentiate.

            I felt obliged to ask it for you since not being a genocide apologist seems outside of the realm of possibility for you.

            learn how to differentiate.

            There is no center here. If you oppose the only ones willing to lift a finger against genocidal white supremacism it’s perfectly clear which side you are most comfortable on.

              So, funny story. The British ship was Lebanese operated. Lebanon is opposed to Israel, and has been recently bombed by Israel even. In opposing a British registered ship, the Houthis have lifted a finger against nationals of a country attacked by Israel. They’ve unwittingly supported Israel.

              Some rich British fucks lost a bunch of money. More Lebanese people lost their lives. Tell me, who have the Houthis done more damage to here? Perhaps they ascribe to the capitalist ideology that property is more important than human lives, and thus their attack was a net success? You seem to have fallen for this same logic.

              Will you support Lebanon if they take revenge against the Houthis for their people? Or do you only reserve that support if it’s against Israel? There’s a reason why only fools support violence against civilians.

                No. it isn’t.

                The British ship was Lebanese operated.

                And? Is Golden Adventure Shipping a British company or isn’t it?

                They’ve unwittingly supported Israel.

                Why don’t you just admit that you don’t understand how any of this works? It’ll go a lot easier if you do.

                More Lebanese people lost their lives.

                Some rich British fucks lost a bunch of money

                You don’t say?

                More Lebanese people lost their lives

                Which Lebanese? The thousands of Lebanese the Houthis massacred on that ship? Oh right… I forgot that not everybody is as bloodthirsty as Israel and it’s western accomplices.

                Will you support Lebanon if they take revenge against the Houthis for their people?

                LOL! Not too good at comprehension, are you?

              Correct, it’s outside the realm of possibility. Because I’m not. Your desire to label everything a genocide apologist doesn’t make it true. But apparently that’s outside of your realm of possibility?

              I oppose senseless violence. Attacking a cargo ship with absolutely no connection to Israel other than being registered by British company is pretty senseless - because it achieves absolutely nothing.

                FTFY. You should give honesty a try… it takes a whole lot less energy than lying.

                I oppose senseless violence.

                Yeah… I can just see how your laughable and limp-wristed “opposition” is making a dent in Israel’s latest mass-murder spree. I’m sure Israel will listen to your opinion and dismantle their genocidal white supremacist state any minute now,.

                Don’t worry… I’m almost sure your convenient and colonialism-serving “bothsideism” narrative is totally not a product of western media’s decades-long attempt to sell their favourite white supremacist client state to you and justify the genocide it has been perpetrating since 1948, eh?
