MODERATORS
Are they even advocating for Hamas? I had the impression they were seeking support for Palestinians (innocent civilians). Not the terrorist group.
Objectively speaking, any group that goes against a larger power is a resistance no matter the moral assignment of their actions. In engineering, any element that drains power from a circuit is resistance to the flow of thatpower. This claim as such is a non statement.
Yeah, they are. That's really, really gross. If I was a member of a local org whose national org told me to refer to a massive terrorist attack on civilians as "the resistance" I'd either quit the local org or demand it disassociate.
You should also watch out for people who say "from the river to the sea, Palestine shall be free". They might be just naive, but the Arabic original version of that phrase is an explicit call to genocide or at best ethnic cleansing.
"I hate it when they fight back, they're much easier to stand with when they just let Israel kill them"
