Do you think he knows it's a satirical article? (and a bad one at that)

Are you really so morally bankrupt that you believe "this has happened before. therefore, it's fine." You can apply that to any crime against humanity.

next you’re gonna tell me jesus wasn’t white???

There are Palestinians who could literally show you the house they got kicked out of

Good luck. I tried the same thing earlier and it changed nothing for the guy haha

They don't know what that means.

Yes, they are behaving very similarly to the Europeans who committed awful acts towards them the last thousand years. Especially, in the West Bank illegal settlements. The settlers there are radical, genocidal lunatics. Just today another Palestinian village packed up and left under threat from a settler militia. That's ethnic cleansing.

that is what ethnic cleansing is

I'm seeing the problem here. You think "communism" is a synonym for authoritarianism. You can be a capitalist authoritarian state. In fact, they exist all over the world!

In its explicit theory of governance, the CCP acknowledges China is not "communist" yet. In the 70's, they decided they needed to grow as an economy before they could achieve communism (referring to Marx's stages of history where the economic development under capitalism paves the way for communism). This is sometimes called Dengism or "Socialism with Chinese Characteristics." So, they opened the economy up and that's where we are now: one of the world's largest, most productive capitalist economies. The CCP remains a "communist" party because its ultimate stated goal is communism. But they seem quite a ways off from that, whatever that even means.

maybe true, but that tent isn't big enough for billionaires. mutually exclusive economic systems.

These people are allergic to knowing anything about the world they live in.

It's a mixed market economy. That is by definition not communist.

No, he happens to actually know what he's talking about.

What are you complaining about? China reformed their economy in the 70's and 80's to look more like ours. They reformed their collective farming, opened up for foreign investment, allowed private business enterprise and privatized quite a bit of their government services. That's why they have billionaires now and tons of private business. You guys should be cheering them on. They're one of the most successful capitialist reformation projects in history. This is like when people think Russia is still a communist country because it was 50 years ago.

There are already millions of Palestinian refugees living in surrounding countries. Estimated 1.5 million of those live in refugee camps. They won't let all of them in because they don't want to be the state that aids Israel in ethnic cleansing Palestine.

Add @Offthemat to team ethnic cleansing

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea would like a word with you.

What's this called?

Why would Hamas kill their own hostages? They're dying as collateral in Israeli strikes.

Who is burning them alive? The released hostages have said they were treated well in captivity. The ones dying right now are due to Israeli strikes.

you are a psycho lol

Biden is a longtime Israel ally. It's a major reason he ended up as VP. The Israeli lobby was very uneasy with Obama and choosing Biden put them at ease.

how many times are you going to keep saying that lie?
